[B.A.T.M.A.N.] faulty dev-batman-adv.ipk

[Bastian Bittorf]

The data.tar.gz in the archive is
not build correct. All file-paths must
be relative, not absolute:

./usr/sbin/batmand-adv (at the moment)
usr/sbin/batmand-adv (correct)

At the first look that doesn't seem to be
a problem, but the packet-manager does
not accept that. The files are on the box,
but the manager thinks "not fully installed"
and an "ipkg files batman-adv" leads to
zero output.

Thanks in advance for fixing that 8-)

bye, Bastian Bittorf

with or without leading "./" - its always the same _relative_ path, i 
think...

root@tetzlav-uplink:~# touch test-without
root@tetzlav-uplink:~# touch ./test-with
root@tetzlav-uplink:~# ls -l test*
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root            0 Mar 13 15:16 test-with
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root            0 Mar 13 15:16 test-without

I agree.

Why do you think so ?

As far as I remember, the ipkg command is pretty dumb. It does not parse 
packets but only the packet database which can be updated with "ipkg update". 
But these packages are not included in a repos - it is just a plain install. 
So, the ipkg command can't help you here or am I mistaken ?

Sorry, the mistake was made by myself.
I debugged the whole morning and found out,
that our repo-build-system was corrupted.
Its working again and your .ipk's are fine...

a big sorry again - bye, Bastian.

After some days, I found again some
strange things with the provided *.ipk.

On freifunk (v1.6.28) it is impossible to
install the package from a (our) repository.
("couldnt find file xy")

I have found out, that is works when the
keyword "Filenname: xy" ist removed
from the control-file.

"ipkg status batmand-adv"

reports an clean install, but

"ipkg files batmand-adv"

reports no filelist...but its is working.
Maybe the pakagebuilder should also
include the "depends: kmod-tun"-statement
in the control-file.

Thanks and sorry for these "nerv-mails"

bye, Bastian.
