Without this, the install will not be processed (as I found out myself).
include $(INCLUDE_DIR)/package.mk
define Package/helloWorld
SECTION:=base
CATEGORY:=Base system
TITLE:=Trivial test application
DEPENDS:=+uci
endef
define Package/helloWorld/description
Trivial Test Application
endef
define Build/Prepare
mkdir -p $(PKG_BUILD_DIR)
$(CP) ./src/* $(PKG_BUILD_DIR)
endef
define Package/helloWorld/install
$(INSTALL_DIR) $(1)/usr/bin
$(INSTALL_BIN) $(PKG_BUILD_DIR)/helloWorld $(1)/usr/bin

When your install rule is executed in your own makefile, it has access
to the variable $(DESTDIR) which points to what will be known as
$(PKG_INSTALL_DIR) in the package Makefile. Thus, it's far easier to
make the full install in $(DESTDIR) and to simply put this line in the
Package/helloworld/install:
$(CP) $(PKG_INSTALL_DIR)/* $(1)/
It helps to reduce redundancy in these makefiles (now, you only have to
modify your own makefile if you change the setup of your project). I
suggest you to do something similar for InstallDev if you use it. You
also need an InstallDev, although it can be empty:
define Build/InstallDev
endef
$(eval $(call BuildPackage,helloWorld))
