Hi, I have an ARM Embedded Linux filesystem where I want to add debian packages. How could I install dpkg from scratch so that I can use it to install packages?
I extracted dpkg 1.10 with its dependant packages. (dselect and ncurses) I have a /usr/lib/dpkg directory with some files, and I created a symlink to /var/lib/dpkg. when I type: dpkg -i somepackage.deb, it fails with not finding the updates file. I dont care about dependencies as I am already aware of them for the packages I want to install. I simply want dpkg to install the files in the right places and perhaps run the install scripts in the package as what -i option does. Could you give me the instructions on how to install dpkg to work properly? Your help will be greatly appreciated.
