Hi All,

We are using Angstrom distribution 2012.05 for our own Single Board
Computer based on ARM926 processor. We need to support debian packaging
system through dpkg, but Angstrom distribution is using opkg system. We
looked how to achieve this and find out a solution to add:

INHERIT = "package_deb"
IMAGE_PKGTYPE = "deb"

into our machine conf file. After complete rebuild we got a dpkg system
into rootfs, but with some problems. In /var/lib/dpkg/status there is no
complete list of installed packages. Also opkg system itself is still
present on rootfs, although without proper package database. If one is
using opkg, the dpkg database became corrupted. Is this normal behaviour?

On our build machine there is deb directory with all packages, but when we
istalled them on target we got warning about arm and armel compatibility.

Is it possible to completely replace opkg system with debian dpkg and what
is the proper way to this?

BR,

Jernej
