The original solution replaced all overrides with the package name that
was being checked. This can have unforseen consequences where some
variable involved in defining the value for the PKG:<package> variable
may rely on some override which is not set as expected. It also meant
that any PKG variable set using an override would not be caught, e.g.,
PKG:${PN}:${MACHINE} = "${PN}-dev" (made up example that would always
fail with the old code).
