Subject: RPM vs IPK
Date: Sun, 20 Mar 2011 19:58:42 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D86B0D2.2070004@mlbassoc.com> (raw)
I know that historically Poky has used 'ipk' as the primary packaging
mechanism. It seems that now Poky/Yocto has move to 'rpm'. My distribution
is still using ipk, but I'm happy to change, given a good argument.
* Is there such [a good reason] to use rpm over ipk?
* What are the pros and cons? I'm mostly interested in very resource limited
deeply embedded systems which often only run from FLASH.
Thanks for any comments
