Title: package list
Post by: uberjoe on September 01, 2004, 04:20:42 pm

Does anyone know if there is a log where I can look to see which packages were installed and in what order? I have looked in /var/log but it is empty. I'm running oz 3.3.5. and use the default package manager.

I have found "ipkg status" from the command line to be very usefull.

That said I have to say I find the opie package manager to be problematic. 1st it is not well documented. Specifically its assumptions and order of preferance are not obvious. Frequently I cannot predict what it will try to do or why.  Any pointers would be appriciated.

@dansawyer: What problems are you having (are you talking about aqpkg or ipkg or both)?

@uberjoe: Status files etc. are stored under:

<installation point>/usr/lib/ipkg/
