The depext plugin should have no dependency whatsoever, except cmdliner ; in particular it should have no depext, because that would defeat the purpose. Opam shouldn't have tried to install `lwt`, and this is probably a symptom of a missing external solver: see http://opam.ocaml.org/doc/Install.html#ExternalSolvers
This won't solve the issue of your distribution not being known in our metadata, and `opam-depext` not knowing how to install the corresponding package on it, though.
Best,
