Subject: Custom handling of ipk upgrade conflicts..
Date: Tue, 24 Nov 2009 17:12:28 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <heg84r$lhh$1@ger.gmane.org> (raw)

Hi all,

I'm wondering how I could deal with conditionally installing some files in a 
ipk package, such as configuration files. For example, to not install some 
file if it already exists, or to merge it in some customized way. The 
CONFFILES directive is too interactive for my use, and doesn't allow custom 
handling of conflicts.

Does someone know of an example of a recipe that does a similar thing, 
perhaps using ipkg preinstall scripts etc?

Cheers!

    Rob
