Hello Alex,
thank you for the quick response!
But my problem is, that I have ptxdist 2014.01.0 based targets in the field which I want to remote update with ther existing busybox tar and the root.tgz file.
In the meantime I have found the problem: it is the --label option. (Jon Ringle: image: Create root.tgz with label 0c30fd38e32126e6b1624a4acdc4a1efcd88c09c)
I tried to copy the old rules/post/image_tgz.make file into my local rules directory to override the new one, but then I get the following warnings and the new rule inside ptxdist is still used:
/usr/local/lib/ptxdist-2014.02.0/rules/post/image_tgz.make:15: warning: overriding commands for target `/home/user/bsp/platform-bsp/images/root.tgz'
/home/user/bsp/rules/image_tgz.make:15: warning: ignoring old commands for target `/home/user/bsp/platform-bsp/images/root.tgz'
Is there a way to override that rule locally in my bsp?
Best regards,
Matthias

Hello,
we are using the root.tgz file for our software updates.
But I can't decompress the root.tgz with the tar (busybox) from PTXdist
2014.02 on an PTXdist 2014.01.0 target ...
I always get:
tar -xvzf root.tgz -C dest/
invalid tar magic
Does anyone have an idea ?
(I can decompress the archive on the host, but not on the target)
First, I would check the checksum if tgz is the same like on your host
system.
Second, I googled a little bit... so it seems there are some options to
have backwards compability (depends on your host tar version if you need
them or not) check out [1].
Maybe BUSYBOX_FEATURE_TAR_OLDGNU_COMPATIBILITY is something which you need.
