Thanks. Actually it does not take any version information into account, just leaves the last entry which is the oldest version. This is on purpose because my problems are mainly caused by opkg crashing due to too little RAM or diskspace and I don't know if I can be sure the new packet version was installed properly. I remove the newer versions and then do an update to be sure to have a stable system (and maybe get old files removed when uninstalling old package versions). Thanks for the input, I'll consider putting an option into the script. Jan
