Do I bounce version and make makefile like mtd-utils.git > 2.) Create another mtd target of 1.2.0 Hi Daniel, I think the BR2_PACKAGE_MTD_UTILS variant, currently 1.1.0, should be upgraded to 1.2.0. Only the old 2005/2006 versions need to be kept for special reasons[*]. You probably need some of the Makefile changes/patches from my mtd-utils.git package. [*] I don't know what those reasons are, and if they are still valid. If they are, mtd-utils upstream should be informed so they can be fixed. thanks, Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3SB
