Yes, it is *very* bad by design. It would be much better if opkg.org would contain several repo's, each oriented to a specific distro, and when one ould upload a package one would specify the distros it will work on, and then it get's added to the local repo. > Plus if someone publishes a new app or a new version, everyone can just > 'opkg install <url>' instead of waiting for SHR developers to include the > app in their repository (assuming everyone uses SHR). You don't have to use only the pre-defined repo's, you can set your own repo and point at it. No need to wait for the distro developers, this is not Apple Store :) Rui _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
