Topic: Packages included in Kamikaze?

The content of this topic has been archived on 19 Apr 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

What packages are in the pre-built images available for download?

For example, wouldn't the following package be included by defualt in a precompiled BIN?

Package: base-files-brcm47xx-2.6
Version: 10-9078
Depends:
Provides:
Source: package/base-files
Section: base
Priority: optional
Maintainer: OpenWrt Developers Team <openwrt-devel@openwrt.org>
Architecture: mipsel
Filename: ./base-files-brcm47xx-2.6_10-9078_mipsel.ipk
Size: 27411
MD5Sum: a93c2608035f4f864b2fba98451e157e
Description:  Base filesystem for OpenWrt
This package contains a base filesystem and system scripts for OpenWrt.

For reference I am trying to load up the brcm47xx-2.6 BIN file compiled for the WGT634U. I am just trying to be organized about knowing what I need before I dive in.

I don't know for the precompiled images. I always compile by myself and then you can check what packages are in the image with:

or "ipkg list_installed" should do it too.

I take it I run this at the shell promt after initial install?

The reason I'm asking is to discover what packages I want to add on beforehand. I know I want to use the Xwrt webif, but don't know what else I will need to setup a wireless client printserver.

A list of standard packages in the pre-builds also needs to go in the Wiki for Kamikaze in my opinion.

Yes.

Yes, maybe this should be listed on the wiki or somewhere...

Anyway, I don't think it's that important.  Either compile it yourself, and then you'll know what's there.  Or install 7.09 and add packages afterwards as necessary.

If you're doing a once off thing, you may as well just install 7.09.
If you want to install the same set of packages on a whole bunch of routers, it's probably best to compile it yourself.

Hmmm, this list appears to list standard packages for the micro and standard installs. SOmehow I suspect this is for White Russian though...

The reason I'm asking this question is to determine what packages are included in the Xwrt bin file and the general build OpenWrt bin file for the WGT634U router. With side by side lists, I can see if anything else if different besides the Web^if package.

I'll run this command when I flash tonight and create a wiki page detailing the standard packages in the Xwrt Kamikaze 7.09 builds, and cross link it to the Xwrt wiki. If I do this, will someone edit the page on the openwrt wiki to add the standard OpenWRT packages in Kamikaze?

The discussion might have continued from here.
