When a package is done installing it may run a postinstall shell script, in the case of your busybox-links it's busybox-links.postinst. These are usually stored in /opt/lib/ipkg/info/.

The issues I've encountered are when the script can't be run using the default shell (bin/sh). This just needs the first line of the script changed from #!/bin/sh to #!/opt/bin/bash (I got this during mt-daapd and adduser packages install). This does require bash shell being installed.

In your case however it looks like the script is executed and a syntax error is being generated. In this case there's a command in the script not executing correctly (no kidding). I've encountered this during a few packages such as coreutils. In this case it's trying to execute /opt/bin/update-alternatives, which itself is a complex shell script. I found changing the first line of /opt/bin/update-alternatives from #!/bin/sh to #!/opt/bin/bash fixed the problem.

My version of busybox-links looks slightly older and doesn't have the postinst file so can't check.

Hope this helps.

i changed the first line of the script from #!/bin/sh to #!/opt/bin/bash
(busybox-links.postinst,/opt/bin/update-alternatives)
now i get a new error :(

I think its the problem I had earlier...

See: http://wl500g.info/showthread.php?t=11398 for discussion or look at the solution below...

The update-alternatives defaults the "head" command to old busybox from /apps/bin hence the error:

head: error while loading shared libraries: head: symbol vprintf, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference update-alternatives: Error: cannot register alternative [ to /opt/bin/[ since it is already registered to

Workaround:

Edit row in /opt/bin/update-alternatives from:

local olink=`head -n 1 $ad/$name`

to:

local olink=`$IPKG_OFFLINE_ROOT/opt/bin/busybox head -n 1 $ad/$name`

And then run:

/opt/lib/ipkg/info/busybox-links.postinst

Did you try Sollie's advice before, might be that my trials combined with Sollies advise solved it. I tried for a number of days before I found out what worked for me. What error message do you get now and what packages do you have installed on your ASUS?
