[Apps] opkg A100/A110 - Updated 21st Sep

[Slevin]

dc11ab, i just think otherwise,

the .ipk's are there, http://sourceforge.net/projects/a110ipkg/files/
but the Packages-list doesn't say anything about them

Not sure I follow you Slevin, I opened the Packages file and saw it there, but not the .ipk package in the repo - a mismatch according to vaidyasr in his previous post, which I assume he corrected.

Or are you still having problems?

[Slevin]

on the latest SF url i gave, the new ipk's are visible.
But when you look for them in the Packages file, there is no reference too them.

I think that that is the cause of why i still have problems
_______
update,
the Packages file on SF has does contain the new packages,
but after doing a

Code:

ipkg update

And reading /usr/lib/ipkg/lists/a110ipkg with vi,
it appears nothing really has been updated on the pch.

[dc11ab]

so the new packages doesn't appear after # ipkg update; ipkg list
?

Strange.

Try
# ipkg -verbose_wget -V 3 update

[Slevin]

Well, i solved it by putting the a110ipkg in /share/ trough ftp,
and then
mv /share/a110ipg /usr/lib/ipkg/lists/a110ipkg

I see the new list now,

Next problem seems to be, after installing irssi i get:

Code:

# irssi
setupterm() failed for TERM=xterm: 0
Can't initialize screen handling, quitting.
You can still use the dummy mode with -d parameter

Googling says this has somehting to do with ncurses,
and according to the ipkg_web it says ncurses is installed.

Update: Also running this in a screen doesn't work

Strange.

I don't have the A100 to test with myself, but my first thought is should destroot really be in /usr ?
With /usr/lib/ipkg/lists/a110ipkg?

I'd think they should end up in /usr/local/lib/ipkg/lists/a110ipkg or even more logical /share/Apps/local/lib/ipkg/lists/a110ipkg

What does this say?
# grep "dest root" /share/Apps/local/etc/ipkg.conf

Here you go:

Code:

# grep "dest root" /share/Apps/local/etc/ipkg.conf
dest root /share/Apps/local

[dc11ab]

Hmm, that looks right.

I think the symlink is created in the /share/Apps/local/daemon.sh
Try this:
# cat /share/Apps/local/daemon.sh

On the 200-series I have this section:

Code:

create_dir()
{
    cd /usr
    if [ -d "local" ]; then
        mv ./local ./local.org
        ln -s /share/Apps/local .
    fi
    echo "Done<br>"
}

And the lists are, again on 200-series, here:
/share/Apps/local/lib/ipkg/lists
aka
/usr/local/lib/ipkg/lists

The /usr directory is not something I'd think vaidyasr would use on purpose as the default for ipkg. I'm under the assumption that he has made the package system identical, but perhaps I'm mistaken.

[Slevin]

This is what i get
The creat_dir section seems to be the same

Code:

# cat /share/Apps/local/deamon.sh
#!/bin/sh

create_dir()
{
    cd /usr
    if [ -d "local" ]; then
        mv ./local ./local.org
        ln -s /share/Apps/local .
    fi
    echo "Done<br>"
}

restore_dir()
{
    cd /usr
    if [ -L "local" ]; then
        rm local
    fi
    if [ -d local.org ];then
        mv ./local.org ./local
    fi
    echo "Done<br>"
}

start_init_d()
{
    if [ -d "/share/Apps/local/etc/init.d" ];then
        cd /share/Apps/local/etc/init.d
        for script in `ls *.sh`
        do
            ./${script} start
        done

    fi
}

stop_init_d()
{
    if [ -d "/share/Apps/local/etc/init.d" ];then
        cd /share/Apps/local/etc/init.d
        for script in `ls *.sh`
        do
            ./${script} stop
        done
    fi
}

case "$1" in
    start)
    create_dir;
    start_init_d;
    ;;

    stop)
    restore_dir;
    stop_init_d;
    exit
    ;;

    restart)
    stop
    sleep 2
    start
    ;;
esac

Sorry, I'm getting out of ideas. I hope vaidyasr can get you further.

[Slevin]

Big thankx anyway!

To sum it all up, i got the update working,
after installing irssi i get a strange error:

Code:

# irssi
setupterm() failed for TERM=xterm: 0
Can't initialize screen handling, quitting.
You can still use the dummy mode with -d parameter

Some searching says it might be something with ncurses,
but ncurses is installed.

Running it in a screen, gives the same result

[wbali]

For me the update was not working from web ui, but it was OK from command line.
The problem occurs when it tries to create the /usr/lib/ipkg folder, but the /usr/lib folder is not writable for the user which runs our php.
I have changed the daemon.sh to create the /usr/lib/ipkg, it seems OK now:

Code:

create_dir()
{
    cd /usr
    if [ -d "local" ]; then
        mv ./local ./local.org
    fi
    ln -s /share/Apps/local .
    if [ ! -d "lib/ipkg" ]; then
    mkdir lib/ipkg
    fi
    echo "Done<br>"
}

But perhaps the best would be to use /share/Apps/local/lib for this.

The path and the modified code (i-pkg) wise, both C & A series are exactly same. The ipkg.conf will be referred only from /usr/local/etc/ipkg.conf aka /share/Apps/local/etc/ipkg.conf.

I don't have a A110 to check the same.
