I had a quick look and package_qa_check_rdepends() has a call to:

oe.packagedata.read_subpkgdata(pkg, d)

which effectively calls:

def get_subpkgedata_fn(pkg, d):
    return d.expand('${PKGDATA_DIR}/runtime/%s' % pkg)

(from packagedata.py)

I think that this should be changed to WORKDIR_PKGDATA, at least for
the purposes of insane.bbclass. The copy in WORKDIR_PKGDATA is limited
to the recipe's dependencies.

Its not quite that simple as we need to ensure that WORKDIR_PKGDATA
when the insane code runs but you hopefully get the idea...

Cheers,

Richard
