Re: [SHR] create opkg-packages
Hello, 2009/5/27 Vinzenz Hersche hers...@puzzle.ch: hello there, i want to create a opkg-package, but i didn't found ipkg-utils on shr, also not on ubuntu. If you want to provide a package for SHR, it should be better to build it using the SHR's build system (which is OpenEmbedded build system). There is a draft about creating package for SHR here : http://shr-project.org/trac/wiki/Packages It is a little bit more difficult than building a simple .ipk using ipkg-utils but it handle dependencies and should be easily integrated to official image SHR. Hope it helps. -- neomilium ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: [SHR] create opkg-packages
I created an ipk by hand the other day (as there was no OE recipe). So, it is possible. Firstly, an ipk is created using ar, not tar. The ipk contains control.tar.gz and data.tar.gz (created using tar -czf). Extract a working ipk to see what goes in these tar.gz's. The ipk will not work unless the top-level contents of the two tar.gz's is the . directory. Call tar from the command line with ./whatever to get tar to put everything under a . directory. -Steven On Wed, May 27, 2009 at 11:31 AM, Vinzenz Herschehers...@puzzle.ch wrote: hello there, i want to create a opkg-package, but i didn't found ipkg-utils on shr, also not on ubuntu. so i tried to create this otherwhise, with the same structure, but if i look into another opk-package, the files in the tar.gz control are childfolders of ., mine isn't (folder . does already exist) and if i save the top-archive as .deb-file, it seems to work, but if i renamed it to ipk/opk, it doesn't work (with ark). the other packages does work normal with ark. so where i became the ipkg-utils? ftp-server with the files seems also to be down :/ greets ps: just by the way, if someone knows this; is there any library with e-mail- support for vala? :) ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

I've not followed these instructions, but they turned up after a quick google: http://www.oesf.org/index.php?title=IPKG_Howto ipkg-build is what I use - all works without any drama.

Re: [SHR] create opkg-packages
yes, i belive that this works without great problems.. but my problem is another one.. i couldn't open ftp://ftp.handhelds.org/packages/ipkg-utils (tried with firefox konqueror), and all instructions said, it must be downloaded there.. i also couldn't install the files with apt-get install ipkg-utils (on ubuntu) or opkg install ipkg-utils (on the moko), so i haven't the programm.. the other try was by hand (think, it's just a gzip..), but this also wasn't work.. so had someone a idea where the ipkg-util-files are? or is the problem with the handhelds.org-server just mine?

Re: [SHR] create opkg-packages
You should be able to get it from the openmoko tool chain (although I haven't looked at it for a while). If not, I've attached my (possibly old) copy to this email.
