configuring package manager for upgrades?
« on: October 15, 2004, 02:13:24 pm »
All,

What is the correct way to configure ipqpkg to link to upgrades and to perform upgrades??

I am now stumbling by loading the upgrade in a dir on the sd card and then using ipqpkg to upgrade. This works but I am sure there is a better way.

Thanks,
Dan

Put these in your /etc/ipkg.conf

src 3.5.1_official http://openzaurus.org/official/unstable/3.5.1/feed
src 3.5.1_upgrades http://openzaurus.org/official/unstable/3.5.1/upgrades

Then do this on the command-line:

ipkg update
ipkg upgrade

Neither of the package managers worked 100% for me in 3.5.1....assuming you're using 3.5.1....

Thank you,

I assume that ipkg is capable of sorting out version levels and will only pull the updates from the upgrade path?? It will leave every thing else alone??
