Just using recipe checksum wont work, because the main reason for PR bumps is to
automatically upgrade the packages when one of the dependencies changes .so
version, which you won't detect from recipe checksum of the app which is just
using the library.
For the development branch like master, yes, that would happen. But for
the stable release like jethro and krogoth, it is unlikely that would
happen, and if if does, the user can manually bump the impacted recipe's
PR to fix the problem. The current problem is that when *all* recipes'
PR are bumped, there is no way to fix the problem.

The PRServer bumps PR according to do_package's task hash, that
causes it bumps *all* packages' PR when recipes like pseudo-native
and rpm-native is changed. It is a very bad user experience when we
run "smart/opkg upgrade" on running target, for example, when we apply
a CVE patch to pseudo-native or rpm-native, or do some slight changes
in their do_compile, "smart/opkg upgrade" will download/install *all*
the packages since all of the packages' PR are bumped.
Here are some rough suggestions to fix this problem, and please feel
free to give your suggestions.
1) Do not use do_package's task for bumping PR, the easiest way
is simulate manually bump PR -- only bump PR when the recipe
itself's checksum is changed.
2) Add a new task for PRServer, redefine its task hash for bumping
PR, for example, this task hash only considers RDEPENDS (no
DEPENDS), and drop any native dependencies.
I prefer the first way, and an alternative way maybe add a var so that
the user can configure it:
PR_CHECKSUM = "${BB_TASKHASH}" (current way)
Or
PR_CHECKSUM = "<recipe checksum>"
