I'm pretty sure that I've fixed each of these packages - most are problems with the postinst scripts. (I'll probably add a lintian check for f|grep -x as it seems to be a common problem.) Unfortunately, I cannot upload the fixes because gcc-4.3 still doesn't build and the new packages depend on libgcc1 built from gcc-4.3 sources. i.e. the fix exists but makes things worse by preventing you from creating the root filesystem image in the first place. You can edit postinst scripts on the device and work around things to make some progress on your device - look in /var/lib/dpkg/info. You need to edit the libc6 postinst too - although dpkg hasn't complained at the end, it did complain in the middle: Setting up libc6 (2.7-4em1) ... /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d: /usr/sbin/invoke-rc.d: 274: /sbin/runlevel: not found /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.postinst: /var/lib/dpkg/info/libc6.postinst: 387: stat: not found udev also complained about stat - that's a pending issue in busybox.
