Hello,
I need to be able to upgrade to a package with all its dependency chain on a
target system that does not have access to the network.
I'm trying to understand what may be the best and also the simplest
solution.
Perhaps there is already this functionality in OE/Yocto?
I thought to implement a new opkg feture so that I can to generate the list
of dependencies of a package and then extract the packages from OE/Yocto
using a script or an application.
opkg v0.2.x (the latest release series) doesn't really support this behaviour
very well. The caching logic just doesn't work. For example, I have a board
connected at the minute with a feed configured so I tried this:
opkg install --download-only ncurses-terminfo
ifdown eth0
opkg install ncurses-terminfo
You'd hope that would pick up the package files from the cache but it doesn't.
So even if you put the files there yourself, you may no have a simple way to
install them.
An interim solution I can see is to put all the packages you want in one
directory then run 'opkg-make-index' from opkg-utils on that directory so that
it is a complete package feed. Then add that as a source in
/etc/opkg/base-feeds.conf.
Hi Paul,
thank you for answering.
This is exactly the main problem, how to extract all the packages I (or
I should say the package itself) want, in one directory.
Would be possible to extend opkg with this feature?
Cheers
