Hi everybody,
I am currently working on bug #10767.
thanks for looking into this.
During the last week, I wrote a shell script which compares the running kernel to the installed kernel files (/boot/...). If they are different, it recreates the files "boot.script" and "boot.scr". Because of that, the user doesn't have to do this after every kernel update.
I do not really get what this script is supposed to do. In case of an update, the boot.script file will be overwritten any way. The version with the binary header can then be created at build time.
The installation manual (http://wiki.ipfire.org/en/hardware/arm/wandboard/wandboardquad) says: "Please note, after each kernel update the boot.script needs to be adjusted and the convert_bootscript.sh or the containing command needs to be executed." Thereof, the steps of adjusting boot.script and running mkimage seem to be necessary after each kernel update. They don't seem to be done by the update mechanism itself at the moment.
*What* needs to be adjusted?
What are you exactly trying to solve here?
This is what I'm trying to provide: A script that can be executed by Pakfire after an update. It checks wether it runs on a wandboard and if it does, it updates the boot.script stuff.
*What* does it "update" with *what*?
However, the script needs to be triggered after a kernel update took place. (Of course, I could copy it into /etc/cron.hourly/, but in my opinion, this is not a good solution.) I guess it needs to be triggered by Pakfire after the update process is done.
Cron is never the solution.
Now comes my question: How do I do this? How can I tell Pakfire to run a custom shell script after an update?
I would be very greatful if you could mail me some hints.
