This commit is already part of the angstrom-v2014.06-yocto1.6 branch.

The issue is that each recipe which uses the update-alternatives.bbclass
(e.g. busybox) gets VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_update-alternatives added to its
RDEPENDS.
http://cgit.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/tree/meta/classes/update-alternatives.bbclass?h=daisy#n225

Without this patch opkg-utils (plus a bunch of python packages it
depends on) gets installed instead of update-alternatives-opkg. 
I tried this on a fresh checkout of angstrom-v2014.06-yocto1.6
and a build of
MACHINE=beagleboard ./oebb.sh bitbake console-image

The recipe opkg-utils builds the packages opkg-utils and
update-alternatives-opkg. So
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/update-alternatives-native and 
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/update-alternative should be set to the
recipe and 
ANGSTROM_IPK_UPDATE_ALTERNATIVES, DISTRO_UPDATE_ALTERNATIVES,
VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_update-alternatives to the package.

Am I missing something

Regards 
Max
