           Summary: busybox and util-linux-ng register alternative
                    `readprofile' to different paths
           Product: Openembedded
           Version: org.openembedded.dev
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: unspecified

Both busybox and util-linux-ng-readprofile provide a `readprofile' command. But
busybox registers the alternative named `readprofile' to
`/usr/sbin/readprofile', while util-linux-ng-readprofile to
`/sbin/readprofile'. And update-alternatives complains about this conflict.

Already have those two installed, then:

root at om-gta02 ~ # opkg configure
Configuring util-linux-ng-readprofile.
update-alternatives: Error: cannot register alternative readprofile to
/sbin/readprofile since it is already registered to /usr/sbin/readprofile
Collected errors:
 * pkg_run_script: postinst script returned status 1.
 * opkg_configure: util-linux-ng-readprofile.postinst returned 1.
