[yocto] How to add openmp to the target image

[christophe coutand]

Hi Paul,

Thank you for your help.

replacing
IMAGE_INSTALL += "libgomp libgomp-dev libgomp-staticdev"
with
IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " libgomp libgomp-dev libgomp-staticdev"
in local.conf seems to do the trick, the library is now part of the 
target image.

Regards,
Christophe
