[yocto] [poky] ERROR: Function failed: do_rootfs, when using ipk package class

[Elvis Dowson]

Hi,

I just tries a build with poky master, and meta-xilinx master branch, and got the following build error.

For some reason the yocto build process fails is PACKAGE_CLASSES is set to package_ipk. 

ERROR: Unable to install packages.

Setting it to rpm works. I ran into this issue recently. 

I’m using Ubuntu-12.10 as the host. 

I recall things used to work file with package_ipk earlier, but with recent releases, the build process only works with package_rpm.
