+ The library package (<filename>lib_package</filename>) class
+ supports recipes that build libraries and produce executable
+ binaries, where those binaries should not be installed by default
+ along with the library.
+ Instead, the binaries are added to a separate
+ <filename>${</filename><link linkend='var-PN'><filename>PN</filename></link><filename>}-bin</filename>
+ package to make their installation optional.
