libevent produces several libraries that might or might not be used in the end. We can prevent those potentially unused libraries from being pulled into a file-system by splitting the individual shared libraries into individual packages. Because this recipe only provides shared libraries which are handled automatically by bitbake (shlibs), there is no need to add the subpackages to the RDEPENDS of PN for backwards compatibility. The packaging process of dependees will simply pull in the sub-packages as runtime dependency as needed. This also how Debian splits this up. While updating the packaging, we can also drop event_rpcgen.py which appears to be a tool for generating rpc bindings, i.e. something that should normally be in -dev. Given Debian doesn't package this at all, and given it actually requires python to run but no runtime dependency is stated at the moment, it would appear that no users of this exist.

QEMU Emulation Targets ====================== To simplify development, the build system supports building images to work with the QEMU emulator in system emulation mode. Several architectures are currently supported in 32 and 64 bit variants: * ARM (qemuarm + qemuarm64) * x86 (qemux86 + qemux86-64) * PowerPC (qemuppc only) * MIPS (qemumips + qemumips64) Use of the QEMU images is covered in the Yocto Project Reference Manual. The appropriate MACHINE variable value corresponding to the target is given in brackets.
