Description Christopher Larson 2016-03-16 23:32:16 UTC
If you have PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/nativesdk-update-alternatives set to nativesdk-chkconfig-alternatives, but PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/nativesdk-update-alternatives_sdkmingw32 set to nativesdk-opkg-utils, with sdkmingw32 in OVERRIDES, it builds nativesdk-chkconfig-alternatives.

My theory is it's related to the bits in the metadata which skip non-preferred recipes, but I haven't dug into it too deeply yet.

Bulk move from 4.99 or 0.00 to 5.99
