Also getting confused, I thought I'd switched back from the development snapshot of opkg to the released version but I hadn't. *facepalm* opkg-0.2.2 works, opkg-0.2.3-SNAPSHOT doesn't work as it fails to install things in the correct order. I'll have to fix this before releasing opkg-0.2.3. -- Paul Barker Email: paul@paulbarker.me.uk http://www.paulbarker.me.uk
