Re: a script to find broken packages before they break you!
* Previdi Roberto previdi.robe...@gmail.com [27.07.2009 13:07]:
hello list. I wrote this little script taking inspiration from the
powerful gentoo command revdep-rebuild. It scans all the binary files in
/usr/bin and shows the broken ones (the ones linking non existent library)
#!/bin/sh
for i in $(find /usr/bin/*); do
broken=$(ldd $i | grep not found)
if [ $broken != ]; then
echo $i: $broken
fi
done
i called it /usr/local/bin/revdep-scan
when you run it it prints an output like this:
/usr/bin/fsousaged: libfsoframework.so.0 = not found
i have also seen that you can issue an opkg search missing_lib_path to
find the package to reinstall, but you must pass the whole path, like
/usr/lib/libfsoframework.so.0 for it to work, so i'm not able to guess
it automatically (i could just try /usr/lib ...)

Nice script. You can use regex to search the package:
LIB=$(echo $broken | awk '{print $2}')
PKG=$(opkg search */${LIB} | awk '{print $1}')
opkg install $PKG
or build a list of packages and install them at the end of the script

Re: a script to find broken packages before they break you!
for the script to work you may need to opkg install ldd, if it's not installed by default on your distribution.

Re: a script to find broken packages before they break you!
umm i didn't think to this issue.. anyway it should be simple, just add /usr/lib/* to the list of checked binaries.. i'll try it On Mon, Jul 27, 2009 at 9:44 PM, Jeffrey Ratcliffe jeffrey.ratcli...@gmail.com wrote: 2009/7/27 Previdi Roberto previdi.robe...@gmail.com: hello list.
