What happens is if I do a "ipkg update" all the lists end up being the same! I enabled verbose as much as possible and it does wget all three files but the first one downloaded is the one that becomes all three! I can of course manually wget the three "Package" files, rename them, and put them where they belong but what's up with "ipkg update"? I really can't see where it is a problem in my setup. My ipkg.conf :

src release http://downloads.openwrt.org/kamikaze/7 … 4/packages
src packages http://downloads.openwrt.org/kamikaze/packages/mipsel
dest root /
dest ram /tmp
src X-Wrt http://downloads.x-wrt.org/xwrt/kamikaz … 4/packages

Run results:

# rm -R usr/lib/ipkg/lists
# ls -l /usr/lib/ipkg/lists
ls: /usr/lib/ipkg/lists: No such file or directory

# ipkg -V 3 -verbose_wget update

It looks like they are hardlinked for some reason.

What version of Kamikaze is that?  Did you compile it yourself?

I see you're pointing at the 7.09 packages, which is not what you want if you compiled Kamikaze yourself.

"Stock" 7.09 build from the X-Wrt site ...

I have found that ipkg is part of busybox and the version of that included in X-Wrt is different from the one in "plain" Kamakazi so I'll move this conversation over to their website.

Thanks,
RR
