Hello Alex,

thank you for the quick response!


But my problem is, that I have ptxdist 2014.01.0 based targets in the field which I want to remote update with ther existing busybox tar and the root.tgz file.

In the meantime I have found the problem: it is the --label option. (Jon Ringle: image: Create root.tgz with label 0c30fd38e32126e6b1624a4acdc4a1efcd88c09c)

I tried to copy the old rules/post/image_tgz.make file into my local rules directory to override the new one, but then I get the following warnings and the new rule inside ptxdist is still used:

/usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2014.02.0/rules/post/image_tgz.make:15: warning: overriding commands for target `/home/user/bsp/platform-bsp/images/root.tgz' /home/user/bsp/rules/image_tgz.make:15: warning: ignoring old commands for target `/home/user/bsp/platform-bsp/images/root.tgz'

Is there a way to override that rule locally in my bsp?


Best regards,

Matthias

 Hello,

 we are using the root.tgz file for our software updates.
But I can't decompress the root.tgz with the tar (busybox) from PTXdist
 2014.02 on an PTXdist 2014.01.0 target ...

 I always get:

 tar -xvzf root.tgz -C dest/
 invalid tar magic
 Does anyone have an idea ?
 (I can decompress the archive on the host, but not on the target)



First, I would check the checksum if tgz is the same like on your host
system.

Second, I googled a little bit... so it seems there are some options to
have backwards compability (depends on your host tar version if you need
them or not) check out [1].

Maybe BUSYBOX_FEATURE_TAR_OLDGNU_COMPATIBILITY is something which you need.
