Hi all,

There are undocumented restrictions on the package names and version needed in order to have ipkg-push working.

These are:
Packages names should not contains any '_'.
Packages versions should not contain any '-' or '_'.

This is because the ipkg-push process need to add an ipkg version number. It does this by assuming the ipk package name is as follows:

${PackageName}_${PackageVersion}-${PackageIpkVersion}_${arch}.ipk

A simple sed is performed on this format and including a '-' in the package version leads to incorrect parsing of package name.

There are currently several packages having this issue:

$ (cd ~/Pengutronix/ptxdist && grep -ne 'VERSION.*:=[ \t]*.*-.*' rules/*)                                                           
rules/binutils.make:23:BINUTILS_VERSION := $(shell $(CROSS_LD) -v | sed -e 's/.* \(.*\)$$/\1/g')
rules/calibrator.make:19:CALIBRATOR_VERSION     := 20070821-1
rules/canfestival.make:20:CANFESTIVAL_VERSION   := 3-20081204-1
rules/chrony.make:20:CHRONY_VERSION     := 1.24-pre1
rules/cross-insight.make:20:CROSS_INSIGHT_VERSION       := 6.8-1
rules/dialog.make:19:DIALOG_VERSION     := 1.1-20100428

rules/host-localedef.make:20:HOST_LOCALEDEF_VERSION     := eglibc-2.11.90-ptx1
rules/hping.make:19:HPING_VERSION       := 3-20051105
rules/jed.make:20:JED_VERSION   := 0.99-19
rules/libedit.make:19:LIBEDIT_VERSION   := 20100424-3.0

rules/lmbench.make:19:LMBENCH_VERSION   := 3.0-a9
rules/ltt-control.make:20:LTT_CONTROL_VERSION   := 0.87-09062010
rules/mbw.make:20:MBW_VERSION   := 1.1-1
rules/media-ctl.make:19:MEDIA_CTL_VERSION       := 2011.05.24-ga183835
rules/mysql.make:20:MYSQL_VERSION       := 5.1.14-beta
rules/ptrtd.make:27:PTRTD_VERSION_SUFFIX    := -1~14
rules/rxtx.make:27:RXTX_VERSION := 2.1-7r2
rules/umkimage.make:19:UMKIMAGE_VERSION := 2010.03-1

To avoid conflicts, packages names and versions should follow the debian conventions 
Name: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Source
Versions: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Version

http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/first.en.html#namever

Actually, there already is a solution for these issues. I have made the needed changes for the above packages in several patches.
I do not want to send them all  to the mailing list.

Regards,

Ben
