Once the Packages.gz on opkg.org is fixed, this ought to do the trick: # echo 'deb http://www.opkg.org/packages/ /' >/etc/apt/sources.list.d/opkg.org.list Currently, the procedure is a bit more involved: 1. Update the package list. # apt-get update 2. Delete empty dependency lists. 3. Delete junk between package sections. # sed -i -n -e '/^Depends: *$/ n' -e '/^Package: /,/^$/ p' /var/lib/apt/lists/www.opkg.org_packages_Packages 4. Fix missing commas in dependency lists. # sed -i -e '/^Depends: / s/\([[:alnum:]]\) \([[:alnum:]]\)/\1, \2/g' /var/lib/apt/lists/www.opkg.org_packages_Packages 5. Change the architecture to armel. # sed -i -e 's/^Architecture: arm.*/Architecture: armel/' /var/lib/apt/lists/www.opkg.org_packages_Packages However, apt-get seems to dislike the www.opkg.org server: # apt-get -o 'DPkg::Options={"--force-architecture";}' install gwaterpas Reading package lists...
