... or when the entry is a directory. But they will get recorded by opkg, which is another source sysupgrade uses to assemble the list of files to get backed up. The sysupgrade list is the distinct union of find -type f $(cat /etc/sysupgrade.conf) find -type f $(cat /lib/upgrade/keep.d/*) opkg list-changed-conffiles > Is this intentional?

Huh? > If that's the case, what's the point of even listing these files in > conffiles? The point is: - - Existing file entries in conffiles are tracked by opkg, and opkg list-changed-conffiles is used to only back up actually modified configs during a sysupgrade - - Directory or not existing file entries are added to the keep list so that they're unconditionally backed up during sysupgrade I agree that adding /etc/nginx will overrule the opkg tracking (means files are *always* backed up, even if unchanged, but that is such a minor problem that neither needs fixing nor much discussion about. In any case, simply add /etc/nginx/ to conffiles, it will work as intended and you do not need to ship a custom keep file. ~ Jow -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAlA3d/cACgkQdputYINPTPMmdwCfZcvNtg1ogFC2W4haYjYEv4lI 5N0An3egffwxDtaXlo6/1c50OJW/CoZT =BxMq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
