    • you can install an .ipk manually, copy it into /tmp, execute
      ar -x file.ipk
      you´ll get two files
      control.tar.gz --> trash, you don´t need it
      data.tar.gz
      you must unpack it in root with
      tar -xzf data.tar.gz -C /
      restart enigma2
      you don´t need any external tools
    • not working for me.... What I am actually am after is to install vhannibal autosettings which to me seem they are not on the feed....

      But the execution line is interesting.... after -x there is a space and I insert name of file? however the file is not found though I have inserted it in tmp folder.

    • Which boxtype? Which Image Version? Which package should be installed - name of the package?

      What's about the installation using the command line interface?

      opkg update
      opkg install /path/to/folder/package-name.ipk

      ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      Quellcode

      1. root@dm920:~$ mount | grep "/ "
      2. /dev/mmcblk1p1 on / type ext4 (rw,relatime,data=ordered)
      3. root@dm920:~$
    • ipkg is no longer supported in the latest image versions, so it will not work

      What do you think, why the option --force-overwrite to overwrite files from other package(s) is needed?

      Just kidding?

    • Ok did this command opkg install /tmp/*.ipk

      I managed to install vhannibal auto settings version 1.1 but when I updated online to version 1.4 something happened as the plugin disappears. So at the moment I have version 1.1....

      I cannot see this plugin in online feed....
