- Jamey thinks opkg status should be brief give one line per package, while
- opkg info can continue to be verbose. 7/23/2002.
-
-3.i) Currently "opkg install foo" will upgrade foo if possible. The
- "Package foo is already installed" check needs to be moved up to
- avoid this.
-
- Jamey thinkgs that "opkg install foo" should upgrade foo. 7/23/2002.
-
-4) Implement new features
-
-4.a) start with all "XXX: FEATURE" comments
-
-4.b) implement all accepted opkg bugzilla feature requests, (also
- check old post "Subject: Reinventing opkg" to see if we forgot
- any of the good ideas we had once upon a time)
-
-4.c) opkg remove needs to (prompt first) then remove packages for
- which the dependencies will no longer be met. DONE. 7/19/2002.
-
-4.d) Add support for:
- opkg install foo from some-feed
- opkg install foo-0.4.3
- opkg install foo-latest # Only needed if we add a feed-order-priority option
- or something like that.
-
-4.e) Orphaned dependency management (what is this -Jamey 7/23/2002)
-
-4.f) Add code for HTTP GET to eliminate wget dependence, (see
- apps/urlget for code). We should probably still keep the wget
- call as a backup.
-
- -- use busybox's internal wget -jamey 7/23/2002
-
-4.g) Experiment with making a small statically linked binary. Can we
- eliminate some library calls, (glob, regcomp)? Can we get
- something like uclibc to work well?
-
-4.h) Add support for a deb-src in /etc/opkg.conf. (ARGH! Name clash
- alert! In apt-land, deb-src means something very different than
- what I would mean here. Hrm... Maybe src-deb would be cleaner? )
-
- (What is this? Jamey 7/23/2002)
-
-4.i) Figure out a clever chroot mechanism for running maintainer scripts in
- offline_root mode.
-
-4.j) Implement opkg history mechanism, with undo and redo? Keep track of
- packages removed/installed by each call to opkg.
-
-5) release opkg-1.0.0
-
-6) Cleanup the code
-
-6.a) Start with all comments marked "XXX: CLEANUP"
