yocto generat symlink to /lib64 - yocto

Question

I have a self written recipe for nodejs because I need a specific Version. In the recipe I generate a symlink from /lib64 to /lib. When the symlink doesn't exist I got an error when I try to run node on my device.
do_install () {
# Create a symbolic link for the lib64 lib path
install -d ${D}/lib
ln -s /lib ${D}/lib64
}
FILES_${PN} += "/lib64"
I see in the build-history that the link exists but when I build the image I always get the following failure.
| /home/rail/yocto/build/tmp/work/odobox_e3900-poky-linux/odobox-developer-image/1.0-r0/recipe-sysroot-native/usr/sbin/prelink: Could not record directory /lib/modules-load.d: No such file or directory
| WARNING: exit code 1 from a shell command.

Is there another solution for the problem?!
best regards Harald

Yocto introduced new linking tool "lnr"
I created a recipe example (lnr-example) on a sumo build environment:
LICENSE = "CLOSED"
SRC_URI = "file://lnr.bin"
FILES_${PN} += "/lib64"
FILES_${PN} += "/lib"
S = "${WORKDIR}"
do_install() {
install -d ${D}/lib/
install ${S}/lnr.bin ${D}/lib
lnr ${D}/lib/ ${D}/lib64
}
After building the example, here is the final "image" folder:
$ ls -l tmp/work/aarch64-poky-linux/lnr-example/1.0-r0/image
drwxr-xr-x 2 talel talel 4.0K مارس 30 10:44 lib/
lrwxrwxrwx 1 talel talel 3 مارس 30 10:44 lib64 -> lib/
Remember you need to package /lib as well, because it will fail if it contains some content, the issue is that the parent task which is /lib is not packaged, here is the error:
File './lib64/lnr.bin' cannot be packaged into 'lnr-example' because
its parent directory structure does not exist. One of its parent
directories is a symlink whose target directory is not included in the
package.
And, adding (IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " lnr-example") done without problems.
