linuxgeek: Re: [nslu2-linux] Re: Help with IceS

I managed to get the binary from the "unstable" optware ipkg feed. The new ices0 build is working perfectly with my Perl script.

Thanks for the extended amount of support from this community, and especially from Robert and Brian. I'm extremely grateful to have this technical problem well in hand now.

I have never seen this before but over the years I have needed to used
the force install option with some packages, needed to overcome similar
problems.

I think the command line should be something like :-

ipkg install -force-depends path/package_name_goes_here.ipk

If you type

ipkg --help

will give a list of the command line options.
