[ptxdist] how to install everything into the ipk?

[Richard Cochran]

Dear list,

I have a new and complex application package, and I don't know exactly
what is needed at run time. I know about the 'install_lib|tree|etc'
macros to cherry pick the essential bits, but how can I just include
everything from packages/foo-x.y in order to test the application?

Thanks,
Richard

	@$(call install_tree, mypackage, 0, 0, -, /)

should work.

No, it doesn't. (That is why I asked the question in the first place.)
I get the following.

    install_fixup:  @DESCRIPTION@ -> missing ... done.
    xpkg_finish:    collecting license (unknown) ... done.
    xpkg_finish:    creating opkg package ... 
    
    No suitable file '' could be found in any of these locations:
    -.pengutronix-beagleboneti
    -
    
    Error: install_tree failed!
    failed

I guess this is a bug?

Thanks,
Richard

It is, and it's not so easy to fix. This should work as a workaround:

	@$(call install_tree, mypackage, 0, 0, -, /.)

Fine, if that works, then it is good enough for me.

Thanks,
