[yocto] Package not found in base feeds with custom BSP but default settings

I found the solution... it seems that bitbake does not like camelCase
(and maybe any upper case letters)

I was able to reproduce the issue by renaming the beaglebone.conf
machine of the meta-yocto-bsp layer to myBeagleBone.conf.
the "not found in the base feeds" error is happening again.

But if I rename it to any lower case name, mybeaglebone.conf or
my_beagle_bone.conf there is no issue.

So I will not complain if I have to forget camelcase when using
bitbake, but I think that bitbake should signal a clear error and not
start the build process.

I read the BSP developer's guide some days ago, but I did not remember
any remarks about naming restrictions...
