Hi,
after the recent zlib (two copies of a file, instead of
a symlink from libz.so.1 -> libz.so.1.1.3) disaster and
my previous issues with busybox (must select install as
symlinks option because hardlinks are broken sometimes,
don't exactly remember which one), I propose the follo-
wing extension to the ipkg creation:
All files to be packaged into one .ipk file are checked
by md5sum. (Symbolic links, directories and special no-
des are not.) If any two md5sums are the same, the pak-
kage creation is aborted with appropriate error message
and people must fix it. This means that copying the sa-
me file twice and/or hardlinking now gives errors (good
because hard links are apparently NOT preserved, during
the image creation process).
Comments?

PS: You may also have noticed the target cflags default
to -Os -fno-ident now and that the .comment section
is stripped. This should also make the images smal-
ler with the same content.
