[oe] -dbg packages in image confusion

[pHilipp Zabel]

Hi,

so the other day I noticed some debug packages that ended up in my
angstrom-x11-images' rootfs:

	$ alias ipkg-cl staging/i686-linux/bin/ipkg-cl -f
work/magician-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/angstrom-x11-image-1.0-r11/temp/ipkg.conf
-o rootfs
	$ ipkg-cl list_installed *-dbg
	glibc-dbg - 2.5-r6 -
	gpe-login-dbg - 0.90-r1 -
	gtk+-dbg - 2.10.14-r3 -
	libcairo-dbg - 1.4.10-r0 -
	libfreetype-dbg - 2.3.4-r2 -
	libglib-2.0-dbg - 2.12.12-r2 -
	libx11-dbg - 1:1.1.2-r1 -
	libxcb-dbg - 1.0+git-r0 -
	libxcursor-dbg - 1:1.1.8-r2 -
	libxdmcp-dbg - 1:1.0.2-r1 -
	libxext-dbg - 1:1.0.3-r1 -
	libxft-dbg - 1:2.1.12-r1 -
	libxinerama-dbg - 1:1.0.2-r3 -
	libxrandr-dbg - 1:1.2.1-r1 -
	libxrender-dbg - 1:0.9.2-r1 -
	pango-dbg - 1.16.4-r0 -
	Successfully terminated.

The culprit seems to be gpe-login-dbg. It pulls in the rest of those
packages via RRECOMMENDS.

	$ ipkg-cl remove gpe-login-dbg
	Nothing to be done
	Successfully terminated.
	Collected errors:
	Package gpe-login-dbg is depended upon by packages:
	        gpe-session-scripts
	These might cease to work if package gpe-login-dbg is removed.

	You can force removal of this package with -force-depends.
	You can force removal of this package and its dependents
	with -force-removal-of-dependent-packages or -recursive
	or by setting option force_removal_of_dependent_packages
	in ipkg.conf.

Ah, why would gpe-session-scripts depends on gpe-login-dbg?
Let's see ...

	$ ipkg-cl info gpe-session-scripts

... it doesn't! But still ipkg is convinced it does:

	$ ipkg-cl remove gpe-login-dbg -recursive
	Removing package angstrom-gpe-task-base from root...
	Removing package gpe-session-scripts from root...
	(offline root mode: not running gpe-session-scripts.postrm)
	Removing package gpe-login-dbg from root...
	Successfully terminated.

Any idea what could have happened here?
Rebuilding gpe-login, gpe-session-scripts or angstrom-x11-image doesn't help.
