Description Mark Hatle 2010-09-29 10:21:27 UTC 
Enabling the package_deb in conf/local.conf, I get the following:

Comment 1 Saul Wold 2010-10-04 14:58:28 UTC 
Can you provide more details about how this is reproducable?  I have not seen this issue as I transistioned from ipk to dep and rpm.

Thanks
Comment 2 Mark Hatle 2010-10-04 15:15:09 UTC 
In the local.conf, I had:

PACKAGE_CLASSES ?= "package_deb package_ipk package_rpm"

I did any bitbake target, commonly I'd do things like bitbake poky-image-minimal or poky-image-sato.

The host machine is a Fedora 13 x86_64 host.
