Hello Shawn, that's quite a problem I suppose, but I might be wrong. :-) Handling the same files from two packages can't end up well. I would suggest to write a postinst and postrm script that would copy and restore your files the same way you would do in /install macro. Take a look at BuildPackage defines at: http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/devel/packages Just a guess: #Makefile ... $(INSTALL_DIR) $(1)/etc/uci-defaults $(INSTALL_DATA) \ ./files/uci-defaults/my-preparation-script \ $(1)/etc/uci-defaults/ endef define Package/mypackage/postinst #!/bin/sh [ -n "$${IPKG_INSTROOT}" ] && exit . /lib/functions.sh uci_apply_defaults endef # mypreparationscript #!/bin/sh if [ -f /path/original-file ]; then mv /path/original-file /path/original-file.backup fi cp /path/your-file /path/original-file and also the same for Package/prerm or Package/postrm that would do the opposite of it on package removal. Try that, it's quite fun. ~ Jiri _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
