Thanks.

I was able to un-build another ipk file. Alter the control file and then re-build it. The re-created plugin, list missing picons worked fine on the arm receiver.

As a differnt test...
It seems that the un-build fails at the filetype recognition.
I could not un-build "enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-autobouquetsmaker_2.1+git314+fdf5103-r1_vusolo4k.ipk" which I got from the plugin server with the download command
However, I could un-build "enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-autobouquetsmaker_20170204_armv7ahf-vfp-neon.ipk" which I got from a forum.

I think, anything after the first "." is being treated as the file type, rather than everything after the last "."

Renaming the plugin allowed successful un-building.

from
 
enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-autobouquetsmaker_2.1+git314+fdf5103-r1_vusolo4k.ipk
to
enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-autobouquetsmaker_2_1+git314+fdf5103-r1_vusolo4k.ipk
I can unpack "enigma2-plugin-systemplugins-autobouquetsmaker_2.1+git314+fdf5103-r1_vusolo4k.ipk" using 7zip on my windows PC without a problem.
I tried ipkg-utils on the same ipk using Ubuntu 16.04 desktop, it did not un-build it either.

Why do you try something complicate? The .ipk extension is just a .tgz (tar gunzip) file, change the extension to .tgz and you can open it up with any decompressor on PC or use:

 

tar -xvzf myipk.tgz

Well, complicated not at all... 

I did a quick modification last evening to get it work on my HD51 (arm) box, a small test showed un-build/build was ok.

This afthernoon I've tried to un-build the ipk's from Abu Baniaz also succeed.

To build you need to avoid "_" maybe that was the problem I dont know for sure, but if you use the legal characters ([a-z 0-9.+-]) (no underscore) than I guess It works.

Im agree there are other (better) methods  :)

No. It's an ar archive.
To unpack it just execute this on the box:
ar x file.ipk
Then a control.tar.gz, a data.tar.gz and a debian-binary is generated.

Unless someone can give explicit instructions, opkg-tools remains easiest thing to use. The fact the upload in post 2 cannot handle more than one "." is a minor issue.

Using the "ar x file.ipk" instruction works with more than one "." in name of file.

To extract an ipk, just put it on a box and call
ar x ipk_name

Won't work if build machine is running a decently current Linsuxx:

What is "decently current"?

 

I'm running "GNU ar version 2.27-24.fc26" locally and that has no issue with ipk's generated by our buildservers? My servers run "GNU ar version 2.25.1-22.base.el7" and our buildservers use "GNU ar (GNU Binutils for Ubuntu) 2.26.1", but work fine too.


Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Pro (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

I think it started with the version coming with Wiibuntu 16.04, not sure which version of Debilian that matches.

The full versions of ar seem to be compatible to each other, just not the busybox-ar to the newer full ars.

I think the problem on busybox ar occurs when you are using the option D on host ar.

  [D]          - use zero for timestamps and uids/gids
Most probably when creating packages under host, it's better to use fakeroot instead of D option.

Many thanks for the uploads.

 

Can someone give me step by step instructions (an idiot's guide)  on how to un-build, edit and re-build the ipk?
