I'm getting this packaging error:

ERROR: QA Issue: non -dev/-dbg/nativesdk- package contains symlink .so: graphviz path 
'work/cortexa9hf-vfp-neon-amltd-linux-gnueabi/graphviz/2.38.0-r0/packages-split/graphviz/usr/lib/graphviz/libgvplugin_gd.so' 
[dev-so]

Looking at the installed image, I see:

$ ls -l tmp/work/cortexa9hf-vfp-neon-amltd-linux-gnueabi/graphviz/2.38.0-r0/image/usr/lib/graphviz/
total 3016

I have two questions about this.
* What is wrong with the setup of the libgvplugin_gd library
   and how can I fix it?
* All the rest of the libraries are set up the same.  Why don't
   they get the same error?

Any pointers appreciated, thanks
