Re: Angstrom-Opie install on h2200 - and now?

Hi,

Applied your patch from below makes my Filemanager able to copy files, thanks
for this.

To use this improvement within my Familiar/Opie installation I tried to
overwrite the latest Familiar/Opie installed files libadvancedfm.so and
advancedfm by the newly created. This doesn't work. Also an install of the
newly created opie-advancedfm.ipk does nor work (I can use -force-depends to
force installation but file manager is not running). To much changes
obviously, especially the new directory structure !?

That lets me expect that I'm also not able to use an existing Familiar
repository to install missing packages into the newly build Angstrom / Opie.
As I only own this one h2200 and I'm using it almost on a daily basis and the
Angstrom install lacks a lot of applications I'll go back to the Familiar
install on my device and try to bitbake then missing applications on my PC as
the next steps.

Bye for now
Gerhard
