Subject: Schizophrenic package management
Date: Tue, 03 Apr 2012 11:52:07 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F7B38C7.6010909@mlbassoc.com> (raw)

Why are both opkg-native and rpm-native needed to build images?
When I asked this previously, I was told that rpm was used because
it has superior dependency tracking.  Fair enough (I guess), but
then why is opkg required if I build an image using
   PACKAGE_CLASSES = "package_rpm"
