  the problem is that, across distros, the same command might come as
part of a different package, so sometimes it's very hard to tell which
package you should advise installing.

  on that note, however, would it be that hard to define a ubuntu meta
or virtual package to install everything needed for yocto?  just to
avoid this sort of problem?
