While attempting to diagnose a package index problem visible on current
poky head I changed local.conf from:
PACKAGE_CLASSES ?= "package_rpm"
to
PACKAGE_CLASSES ?= "package_deb"
then removed tmp and buildhistory. Rebuilding the image produced:
ERROR: pabigot-image-cmdline-sdk-1.0-r0 do_rootfs: Unable to install

linux-firmware' returned 100:

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
packagegroup-core-full-cmdline : Depends:
packagegroup-core-full-cmdline-initscripts but it is not going to be
installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Reverting to package_rpm and doing a clean build worked fine, so it
appears something in the state that's dependent on the package manager
is not getting rebuilt. Based on the complaint the following additional
configuration settings in local.conf might be relevant:
# Section 4.24 Selecting an Initialization Manager
DISTRO_FEATURES_append = " systemd"
VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_init_manager = "systemd"
DISTRO_FEATURES_BACKFILL_CONSIDERED = "sysvinit"
VIRTUAL-RUNTIME_initscripts = ""
FYI only, I have no reason to switch between packaging systems like this
normally.
