After further investigations ...
- ipkg update, upgrade with full ipkg.conf from build5.4.9, ipkg only upgrades using Meanie's feed and not Kazakov's one.
- update, upgrade with only Kazakov's feed works.
- abiword 2.4.6 from Kazakov's feed installs in addition to abiword 2.4.4 because AbiWord vs Abiword in /usr/bin
- after upgrade: no more window saying "You can safely remove the device now",
so some matchbox packages are updated but loosing Meanie's customizations.
- in package manager(qpkg): if 2 different versions of the same package name are available, only the first in alphabetical order will be installed, same with dependencies so it installs the lowest version each time and not the newest wanted.
- xournal 0.4 from Kazakov's feed: need to symlink to /usr/local for the app to find icons
- If I try "ipkg install xournal", it installs xournal 0.3.2 and not 0.4 which is annoying
The only way I found is to download the wanted pakages on my CF card and install them locally.
So I prefer not messing with Kazakov's feed, you need to know exactly what you do, what to upgrade, what not to upgrade if you want to keep Meanie's customizations(abiword, xpdf, gtk2, rox , matchbox, ...)
May be we should:
- incorporate selected essential packages from Kazakov's feed and put them in Meanie's feed but that needs a lot of testing(dbus, gtk2, ...). By the way, what do they bring to the table for a user perspective ? (fix bugs ?, new features ?, faster ?)
- port Meanie's customizations to the newest packages
- fix ipkg and qpkg to install the selected package and not another version
I don't know much about package management, that's just a brief test
Thanks
