Hi Saul,

I remove package sudo from task-core-basic.bb and build a new lsb-image 
without sudo. After building  successfully, I startup lsb image without 
sudo on emenlow. I check the access permission for directory "/var/lib"

root at emenlow:/# ls var/ -l
total 5
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root 1024 May 19 10:17 backups
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   14 May 23 20:22 cache -> volatile/cache
drwxr-xr-x 11 root root 1024 May 23 20:22 lib
drwxr-sr-x  2 root root 1024 May 19 10:17 local
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   13 May 23 20:22 lock -> volatile/lock
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   12 May 23 20:22 log -> volatile/log
drwxr-sr-x  2 root root 1024 May 19 10:17 mail
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   12 May 23 20:22 run -> volatile/run
drwxr-xr-x  5 root root 1024 May 23 05:54 spool
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root   12 May 23 20:22 tmp -> volatile/tmp
drwxrwxrwt  7 root root  140 May 23 20:31 volatile

So I think package sudo change access permission for "/var/lib" finally. 
Also I checked file "install_solution.manifest"
.......
  /media/D/poky/32/poky.e/build/tmp/deploy/rpm/core2/nfs-utils-1.2.3-r2.core2.rpm
  /media/D/poky/32/poky.e/build/tmp/deploy/rpm/core2/cronie-1.4.7-r2.core2.rpm
  /media/D/poky/32/poky.e/build/tmp/deploy/rpm/core2/gzip-1.4-r0.core2.rpm
  /media/D/poky/32/poky.e/build/tmp/deploy/rpm/core2/sudo-1.7.4p6-r0.core2.rpm
......
I don't know whether the packages are installed to image as the sequence 
or not.
