So did you mean you wanted the yaffs-utils package installed? In which
case you can use this command line to try it out and then later add a
suitable entry into config/platform/host/ltib.preconfig

This file governs the host support packages that get turned on when you
first build an LTIB project.

So for this to take effect, you need to remove the project's copy
of  .host_wait_warning* after updating ltib.preconfig then next time you
run ltib it will re-do the host support package run and update anything
new.
