Re: Debian on the Sharp Zaurus/SL-5xxx
A dpkg enhancement which would make a difference would be to keep the
whole /var/lib/dpkg infrastructure on a host system. The host could even keep
an image of the entire Zaurus file system on its disk and install into that,
and then synchronize across.
At the moment the way I use my Zaurus is to download ipk files into a
directory on
my main computer, and then copy them to the Zaurus and install them there.
Having support within the dpkg format for installation onto SD or CF would be
very useful, but I suspect it would require many packages to change to do it
right.
