I encountered the same problem.
The above error is because we're using update-alternatives from host.
It seems to be caused by recent changes about 
opkg/opkg-utils/update-alternatives.

I used the following steps to work around it.
bitbake opkg-utils-native -cpopulate_sysroot -f
bitbake <your-image> -crootfs -f
