Sadly we can't do this, both do_package_write_ipk and
do_package_write_rpm depend on do_package and this would cause
do_package to change depending on the package backend selected which
would mean inconsistently generated packages. We're going to have to
find a better solution (and maybe add do_populate_sdk testing to the
nightly-packagemanagers test to ensure that doesn't regress).

Cheers,
