 From reading the code, that only happens when using rpm. In other cases 
you need to execute _save_postinsts(), regardless of whether package 
management is available on image or not.

Whatever changes you try, do run oe-selftest's 
'test_postinst_rootfs_and_boot' test against them and make sure it 
doesn't regress.
