Ipkg-link, Add Places To Search

[systemparadox]

Hi,
I used to have /dev/mmcda2 (ext2) mounted on /mnt/card and mmcda1 (fat) mounted on /mnt/fat, but I use other sd cards regularly (with only one big fat partition) and it has got a bit annoying having to manually edit /etc/sdcontrol and mount/unmount all partitions.

I now have mmcda1 mounted on /mnt/card and mmcda2 mounted manually on /mnt/sd. Unfortunately, despite adding 'dest sd /mnt/sd' (yes i changed the name of /mnt/card) to /etc/ipkg.conf, ipkg-link cannot find any packages installed on /mnt/sd. (even if I have told it to mount /mnt/sd and its getting the packages list of there).

I cannot find any other ipkg related config files- where do I tell ipkg-link about /mnt/sd?

Thanks
Simon

This is a failing of the ipkg-link script.

There's a thread about this (I've submitted a bug and hopefully it'll get sorted out soon).

Si

P.S. BTW this isn't really a development issue and would probably have been better placed in the OZ part of the forum.
