Remove opkg package to prevent signature check option sneaking in

Post by ispyisail »

opkg is not needed as we have gpkg to replace it. If users want to add opkg in a custom build they still can, but then it will be up to them to ensure signature checks pass and that repositories are set correctly
So if i want to install "nano" what would the command be?

Code: Select all

gpkg install nano
??

Yes.
You technically can still call “opkg” as we create a link from gpkg to opkg at first boot.

Instructions that apply to opkg generally apply to gpkg as well, but it is a much older source code so some newer functions won’t work.

If this isn’t working for you let me know because it should.
