[Announce] New EntWare package repository for 1.9.2.7-rtn firmware

[!gm]

just start with a new /opt (of course every application/service you have running on /opt needs to be stopped)

you may keep your init.d scripts, because they are actually not available via opkg

Thank you,

I know this is off-topic here, but i couldn't find a better place for this.
I don't have an asus router, but I'm trying to install pyload on my Buffalo wich has a MIPS processor like the wl500g.
My problem is that i can't find the dependencies compiled for mips! Could please anyone upload the need packages?
thanks in advance

Warning! You can't update your packages if you used f OpenWRT repo before 22/03/12.

The main change is a new basic uClibc libs, which makes repo independent from current firmware. Now, a TomatoUSB users can use our repo too.

Please, feel free to inform about any odds and bugs.

This means I have to remove all packages via opkg remove, install desired packages again, checkout the repo-trunk at my build-machine and recompile the packages pyload and minidlna...?

no opkg upgrade

No. Package architecture name has changed, so you can't install new packages with old opkg.

• Save your configuration files from /opt folder and clean it,
• follow installation manual to (surprise!!^) package installation,
• restore your configuration files.

checkout the repo-trunk at my build-machine and recompile the packages pyload and minidlna...?

pyload and minidlna is in the OpenWRT repo. Feel free to use it.

No, pyload outdated

No, pyload outdated

Yes, you are bleeding-edge technologies user with your own minidlna or pyload, so you must be prepared for possible problems like this
If you made these packages yourself how can i support it?

its ultraeasy.... just change source where you're patching the openwrt makefiles

Agreed. Will do after toolchain polishing.

[!gm]

nice!
that way our repository becomes more fancy than the openwrt one's

but take your time

Done in r403.
Update tomorrow.

You forgot this:

additionally I also altered packages.index to match version and filename - don't know, if this is really needed...

as the trunk/feed/packages.index is generated and not tracked via svn, I can't provide you an diff, but my pyload section looks like this:

Package: pyload

Not forgot, no needed. Package version will be taken from package Makefile.

ok - cool

edit: and now cleaned up my /opt and set up everything again - it's working like a charm
