Hi everyone, |
2 |
|

Are there any pointers for a light(er) weight package manager for |
4 |
embedded devices with <= 16 MB of flash storage ? |

I've grown accustomed to using emerge to build binary packages for all |
7 |
of my boards. Up until now we've just blasted the binary packages onto |
8 |
our boards in the shop, but we're turning towards updates on live |
9 |
systems in the field. |

Paludis has struck my interest but I'm just not sure what the runtime |
12 |
requirements are, and how well it deals with normal gentoo binary tbz2's |
13 |
(and their metadata). I think that libstdc++.so is a bit too big for our |
14 |
boards, so any options with C++ dependencies are likely out the door. |
15 |
|
16 |
Having python on our boards is not really an option either, and |
17 |
therefore the factory 'emerge' also won't work (or will it??). |
18 |
|
19 |
Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm sure that some of you have dealt |
20 |
with the same problem before. |
