Cannot use 'meta-intel-iot-security/meta-security-smack' with 'meta-security'

[Ks89]

Hi,
probably it's a stupid question but I want to try to ask if it is possible to use meta-security with meta-intel-iot-security/meta-security-smack, because I get this error:

ERROR: meta-security/recipes-security/smack/smack_1.3.0.bb: QA Issue: Recipe meta-security/recipes-security/smack/smack_1.3.0.bb has PN of "smack" which is in OVERRIDES, this can result in unexpected behaviour. [pn-overrides]

I'm using yocto rocko with meta-security rocko and meta-intel-iot-security master

My guess is that the "smack" override used by meta-intel-iot-security interacts poorly with smack_1.3.0.bb, so no, it looks like they can't be combined as they are now. Also note that meta-intel-iot-security is currently looking for a new maintainer. If you are interested in something found here and not elsewhere, then you need to work with the OE community to figure out where that should live going forward.

There is a conflict in naming.
I'm working on a project that use meta-security and a rewriten version of parts of meta-intel-iot-security.
If you are interested, it is here: https://git.automotivelinux.org/AGL/meta-agl/tree/meta-security
