gaaaaaaaah ... ok, i have no idea what to think of this. again,
here's the update error i get trying to update the oldpackages feed:
Create index file './feeds/oldpackages.index'
grep: feeds/oldpackages/Binary: No such file or directory
grep: file: No such file or directory
grep: matches/Makefile: No such file or directory
gmake: *** No rule to make target 'feeds/oldpackages/Binary', needed by
'/home/rpjday/openwrt/ar71xx/git/feeds/oldpackages.tmp/info/.packageinfo-Binary'.
Stop.
i have no idea where the word "Binary" is coming from, but it's
clearly what is screwing things up as that makes no sense -- there is
no package or subdirectory named "Binary". however, let's do this.
if i go under a working feed, say "packages", and further into the
"info" directory, thusly:
$ cd feeds/packages.tmp/info
i can see the files with the collected package info:
$ ls -1 .files*
.files-packageinfo-21213
.files-packageinfo.mk
.files-packageinfo.stamp
.files-packageinfo.stamp.0c809649962fa56ee254c0ae94ba78f3
$
and if i look through .files-packageinfo-21213, i can see the
collection of all the packages in their subdirectories:
utils/ntfs-3g
utils/lm-sensors
utils/coreutils
utils/pps-tools
utils/tcsh
utils/mpack
utils/acl
utils/bash
utils/hamlib
... etc etc ...
however, if i do the same for the oldpackages directory and peruse
the very same file, to my astonishment:
... snip ...
libs/libassuan
libs/libnfc
libs/lttng-ust
Binary file feeds/oldpackages/libs/clearsilver/Makefile matches
libs/serdisplib
libs/cgilib
libs/check
... snip ...
what the heck is that "Binary file ..." line doing in the middle of
the .files-packageinfo file??? it's clearly the output of some grep
command, and it's been stuffed into the middle of the
.files-packageinfo file where the word "Binary" is subsequently
treated as a file name, which causes all this grief.
what is causing that line to be added to that file?
