This page will document the agreed packaging standards for webOS homebrew ipkg files and open standard ipkg feeds as well as act as a whiteboard for new revisions. |
Please note, ipkg/libipkg has an internal, hard coded buffer of 8k to handle parsing the feed elements for each package. This means that description fields need to get reduced in length to prevent segfaults.
Note that a package record in a Packages file starts with the "Package:" field, and ends with an empty line.
NOTE1: New fields are in bold red
NOTE2: Modified fields are in bold black
