Seems I don't fully understand your usecase, could you please comment if 
it's correct:

1. You have two Isar recipes A and B that build packages from source code.

2. After building of package A, apart from binary A, A-dev also provided.

3. Package B depends on A-dev.

Also, have you added dependency from A in B recipe?
