Ah. If that's happening then that is also a bug. Are you saying that opkg basically throws away anything that isn't SS_INSTALLED when it writes out the status file? That is definitely no good: it ought to preserve all the SW_xx values that are set in the status file, essentially indefinitely. > But, on the other hand, if there are multiple versions of the package > present in the deploy/feed, then it will, probably, deinstall one > version and install another one, which is not the correct behavior. Yeah, that would also be pretty broken. p. _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
