ipkg.sh install problem

[Pirat]

Hi!

I got this:

[admin@Router /opt]$ ipkg.sh install sane-backends
/usr/bin/ipkg.sh: 1182: wc: not found
[: -ne: argument expected

I use 1.9.2.7-6 OLEG and have other pkgs running!

Seems to me like an error in the config script for WL-500g: './opt/' should be '/opt' afaik. Contact the package maintainer or Jean-Fabrice (he's the repository manager for WL-500g).

Edit: you might try to execute the ipkg install command from the root directory (/), that could work. Also use the 'ipkg' command instead of the 'ipkg.sh' command.

Hi!
[admin@Router root]$ ipkg install sane-backends
-sh: ipkg: not found
???
And from / it looks good! Thx!

[Jean-Fabrice]

do not use ipkg.sh to install package.
ipkg.sh is use only once to install ipkg package : ipkg.sh install ipkg
then 'ipkg update' and 'ipkg install sane-backends'

OK, will test it. But from / it works!
