[yocto] Incorrect warning: preferred version linux-libc-headers_3.3 of linux-libc-headers not available (for item linux-libc-headers)

[Elvis Dowson]

Hi,

In my local.conf I have set the following variable

PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-libc-headers = "linux-libc-headers_3.3"

However, when I run bitbake linux-libc-headers -c fetchall, it complains that the preferred version is not available, even though I've created a  linux-libc-headers_3.3.bb recipe and set the preferred version in my local.conf

NOTE: preferred version linux-libc-headers_3.3 of linux-libc-headers not available (for item linux-libc-headers)
NOTE: versions of linux-libc-headers available: 3.0.8 3.2 3.3 3.4.3

NOTE: package linux-libc-headers-3.3-r0: task do_fetch: Started

Why is this so?

Best regards,

Elvis Dowson
