Hi,
I am getting more and more pissed off with the quality of the openwrt-packages (or my own stupidity).
The maintainers seem to care not the tiniest bit about properly reflecting dependencies. I’ve seem this many times with perl-modules where it is utterly chaotic but the python-stuff seems to be just as bad…
What I want to to do is to set up a bluetooth access-point on my AR-300M. bluez is now in version 5 so all the old recipies using pand no longer work, it seems you need to talk to the bluetooth-demon via dbus now.
There is a package “bluez-examples” which contains some example-scripts in python but you cannot run them because they depend on a dbus-module that you cannot install because it depends on a “python-expat”-package that simply does not exist…
So the (transitive) dependency of “bluez-examples” on “python-expat” via “dbus-python” is not properly reflected. You can install a package containing scripts that you cannot run.
I am a but drunk, so I may be too harsh, but I call this crap.
Am I doing something fundamentally wrong here or is openwrt as bad as it seems to me at the moment?
How can I deal with this? Compiling everything myself? omg…
Many thanks!
