Hi Richard,

Thanks for the reply.
I have an ipk in deploy in my tmp dir, but I guess that is not the one I need.

What I tried to do is to move the staging files out of the temp dir by
saying in my local.conf:

DEPLOY_DIR_PSTAGE = "${OETREE}/build/pstage/"

(where OETREE evaluates to /home/frans/OE )

This is as described by hrw in
http://marcin.juszkiewicz.com.pl/2008/07/01/packaged-staging-and-what-it-gives/

I get the errors above after removing my tmp dir.
When i search for sysvinit in my staging dir I only find this:

frans at frans:~/OE$ find build/pstage -name *sysvinit*
build/pstage/angstromglibc/staging-sysvinit-beagleboard-angstrom-linux-gnueabi_2.86-r57_i686-linux.ipk

If I run find on the whole tree I get:

frans at frans:~/OE$ find  -name *sysvinit*

here angstrom-dev is the tmp dir (I followed the instructions from
angstrom-distributions to set up this tree), and the package is there
in deploy, but (as per hrw's page) those are gone.

The only thing I can think of is what is suggested by denix on
http://blog.denix.org/2008/09/getting-dangerous-with-packaged-staging.html
: also move deploy out of the temp dir. (actually only found this
while posting this, so didn't test it).
Can I change DEPLOY_DIR in local.conf? Do I need to? (currently it is
set in conf/distro/include/angstrom.inc )
(anyway will give it a try).

Frans.
