[2008.12] Opkg.org repository packages that won't install
Some packages in opkg.org are somewhat broken and won't install using the opkg.org repository in 2008.12. Could you please try this and let me know what happens.

Re: [2008.12] Opkg.org repository packages that won't install
Hi ! Perhaps you get this error because the ipk files are not stored in the opkg.org. For example, for voicenote, I just put the link to my server, I did not upload the ipk on opkg.org. If this is the answer, perhaps we should ask all the author like me to upload the ipk instead of giving a link ? Kimaidou 2009/2/27 Risto H.

Sorry, I overlooked your earlier related thread until I ran a message
search for subject 'opkg'. :(
Reading through Packages.gz, several packages have nothing but filename
and md5, which doesn't seem right. It seems on closer examination that
those are all ones listed with the 'return value: 2' error. Likely the
error occurs because it in fact knows no package named, for example
voicenote, only a package with a filename voicenote_0.3_arm.ipk.
Those packages, manually downloaded, also fail to extract via ar x
with the error invalid ar magic - I smell a connection, where the
feed-building script cannot extract the archive to parse the control
file. I'm unsure what the cause of the 'ar x' failure is.
The segfaulters (like the wireshark/tshark packages I contributed) seem
to be emerging when the hourly repo update script parses the control
file within the ipk. Specifically, it doesn't seem capable of ignoring
empty lines at the end of the file, but rather appends them to the last
field parsed. In the case of the wireshark packages that field is
Source. (in addition, somehow there was a stray 'T' on a line by
itself in the control file for wireshark - that was just my stupid)
Liquidwar has ${SRC}\n as the source, and pythm also has a blank line
embedded in the source field. So it seems the segfaults are packages
with spare newlines in the control file... Does the official syntax
for the control file permit or prohibit newline-at-end?
I'm fixing the wireshark packages to have no empty lines at the end of
the control file. ;)
Odd. After the hourly script run, wireshark package is missing from
the feed, though it still appears on the opkg.org site. Will see what
happens. Looking further, it seems that after I upload the new ipk, it
no longer lists the package link (its new opkg.org URL) under
'direct-download link' in the opk upload section, likely the reason
it's left out of the feed update. I pasted the original data for
tshark back in and updated the prepended 0_, will see what happens at
midnight. (It'd be nice if opkg.org could look up a named dependency
locally and fill in the link - I had to edit the dependancies manually
to reflect filename changes when it prepended 0_ and 1_)
UPDATE: Nope, it turns out it placed it near the top of the Packages.gz
file instead of alphabetically, and I missed it at first.
Also odd: I'd swear there was a package rating on Wireshark, but after
the correction it's showing 0.
Regardless, in all of this I decided to rebuild with the latest stable
Wireshark. (the present opks at opkg.org are 1.0.99+svnr26030, 1.1.2
stable is available now, I'll stay out of svn this time) Hopefully
I'll be able to build, test, and package it by the end of the weekend.
I noticed some extra empty lines in
http://www.opkg.org/packages/Packages - does it matter?
r
Yeah, in some instances the empty lines are clearly causing a
problem. ;)
