With --debian-installer "false" it has no effect on the inclusion of the .debs I noted were included in the binary-tar.tar.gz file. root@nereid:/bld/images/a34/nano/t2# cd binary/ root@nereid:/bld/images/a34/nano/t2/binary# ls boot dists md5sum.txt pool root@nereid:/bld/images/a34/nano/t2/binary# cd pool/main/ root@nereid:/bld/images/a34/nano/t2/binary/pool/main# ls a c e g k libd libl libp libu n p s u z b d f i l libf libn libs m o r t x root@nereid:/bld/images/a34/nano/t2/binary/pool/main# ls a/ acl adduser apt attr root@nereid:/bld/images/a34/nano/t2/binary/pool/main# cd a/acl root@nereid:/bld/images/a34/nano/t2/binary/pool/main/a/acl# ls -l total 16 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14756 Jul 27 12:09 libacl1_2.2.51-3_armel.deb Going back to my email from earlier today, why would anyone want copies of the .debs when they are already installed in binary/boot/filesystem.dir ? It seems like binary/dist and binary/pool should be deleted from the resulting tarball. > -- > Address: Daniel Baumann, Donnerbuehlweg 3, CH-3012 Bern > Email: [email protected] > Internet: http://people.progress-technologies.net/~daniel.baumann/ -- Regards, Tom "We want great men who, when fortune frowns will not be discouraged." - Colonel Henry Knox Linaro.org │ Open source software for ARM SoCs w) tom.gall att linaro.org w) tom_gall att vnet.ibm.com h) tom_gall att mac.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
