pcap-config --libs will return with -Wl,rpath,$(libdir) however the RPATH is in /usr/lib* so it is redundant and should not be returned.
Building with multilibs on in Yocto you will not that V_RPATH_OPT="" and so this is not an issue since the -rpath component is not part of the return.
If you run pcap-config you will note that it returns with -Wl,-rpath,$(libdir)
ie.:
./bitbake_build/tmp/sysroots/intel-xeon-core/usr/bin/crossscripts/pcap-config --libs
Since applications (such as libvirt) use pcap-config to get necessary libs this will cause a redundant RPATH QA warning since the RPATH is in /usr/lib*. This is due to the pcap-config script not being compatible with multilibs.
