I try to make a opkg file. File is build.

But if I install the opkg I get some errors:

Collected errors:
 * parse_from_stream_nomalloc: Missing new line character at end of file!
 * parse_from_stream_nomalloc: Missing new line character at end of file!
 

What does this mean?

 

My CONTROL file:

Package: enigma2-plugin-skins-lcdbigclock
Version: 0.1.1
Description: Enigma2 Plugin LCD-Big-Clock by Doddema, thanks to 2boom.

I bet you're using an editor on the windows platform to make the CONTROL file (like notepad etc.)

No, I use Notepad++ , code of the control file is ANSI.

On what platform?

It has nothing to do with the encoding, but with the line-ends.

And BTW you should use UTF-8 not ANSI (I assume you actually mean ASCII).

I use Windows, If I change the control file to UTF-8 I get a opkg-build error that the contol file is invalid.
I looks like the opkg properly installed,in spite of error massage.

If I direct from the Ultimo edit a (old working version) control file, the coding is the same as my new control file.

It's like I said. Windows uses CR/LF at the end of each line, Unix use LF only.

I use dos2unix on the controle file. But still the same problem. However the ikg is properly inslalled.

Problem solved, I did make a new contol file.

Yep exactly what I meant.
