Additionally there are a lot of Packages that don't contain a control file with depencies and so on: Form the packages in debian format are these: 0_tshark_1.0.99+svnr26030_armv4t.ipk danish-illume-0.0.1.ipk gtick_0.1_armv4t.ipk numptyphysics_0.3-svn118_armv4t.opk wicd_1.5.6_armv4t.ipk 0_wireshark-common_1.0.99+svnr26030_armv4t.ipk deforaos-browser_0.1.0_armv4t.ipk guitartune_0.31_arm.ipk openttd_0.6-r0.6_armv4t.opk xmahjongg-3.7_0.2_armv4t.ipk 0_xlogical_1.0-8-r0.4_armv4t.opk deforaos-editor_0.1.0_armv4t.ipk illume-keyboards-dutch-nl_0.3_all.opk pong_0.1_armv4t.ipk zedlock_0.1_armv4t.ipk 1_wireshark_1.0.99+svnr26030_armv4t.ipk enscribi_0.1_armv4t.ipk libboost-signals1.33.1_1.33.1-r3_armv4t.ipk python-pyalsaaudio_0.3-ml0_armv4t.ipk zinnia-tomoe-ja_0.6.0-20080911_armv4t.ipk AppManager_1.0.1_all.opk ethtool_6_armv4t.ipk libsystem_0.1.0_armv4t.ipk remoko_0.3.2_armv4t.ipk zinnia-tomoe-zh_0.6.0-20080911_armv4t.ipk batalarm_0.2_all.ipk fbreader_0.8.2a-r7+elleopatches_om-gta02.ipk mutagen_svn-4350-2_armv4t.ipk rotator_0.1_all.ipk centerim_4.22.7-r0.1_armv4t.opk flashlight_0.1_armv4t.ipk nethack_3.4.3-10.1-0.4_armv4t.ipk tichy_0.1+svnr279-r0.01_armv4t.opk And from the packages in gzip format: efplayer_0.3_arm.ipk mofi_0.02_armv4t.ipk osmupdater_0.4_any.ipk playstankontakarta_0.4_any.ipk zomg_0.0.6-r2_armv4t.ipk So if the authors of these packages can update them that would be great. _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
