[poky] Best supported package manager?

[Rudolf Streif]

If you set

PACKAGE_CLASSES ?= "package_rpm"

that means that it will build RPM packages and will use them to build the
root file system.

If you set something like

PACKAGE_CLASSES ?= "package_rpm package_ipk"

it will build RPM and IPK packages and it will use RPM packages to build
the root file system. The first item listed in PACKAGE_CLASSES will be used
to build the root file system. If you want IPK to be used instead to build
your root file system:

PACKAGE_CLASSES ?= "package_ipk package_rpm"

Just setting PACKAGE_CLASSES does not include the package management system
into your root file system. You will have to add it via the
package-management feature:

EXTRA_IMAGE_FEATURES += "package-management"
