Description Lianhao Lu 2011-09-23 01:06:51 UTC 
After successfully installed some lib32 multilib packages into the x86-64 image, we just found that the file content of /var/lib/opkg/status in rootfs changed after the very 1st boot, many lib32 related packages information are missing in that file.

The issue still exists with latest edison branch.
Comment 2 Shane Wang 2012-02-06 04:13:13 UTC

1. Build image core-image-sato with the following configurations in local.conf:
MACHINE = "qemux86-64"
PACKAGE_CLASSES ?= "package_ipk"
require conf/multilib.conf
MULTILIBS = "multilib:lib32"
DEFAULTTUNE_virtclass-multilib-lib32 = "x86"
IMAGE_INSTALL_append = "lib32-bash"

2. Copy the file /var/lib/opkg/status from the image .ext3 file to another place for later comparison. You should see lib32- related informaitons.

3. Launch qemu.

4. After the launch, compare the file /var/lig/opkg/status with the saved file in step 2, to see whether the lib32- related information is missing.
