Solved Building mfslinux on FreeBSD

[balanga]

After looking around the openwrt site it looks like I should be able to come up with something based on the following instructions:-



It will probably take me a while to extract the correct filenames, but I'll just make a note here for myself for some task to do in the future...

Here's a little script which highlights the packages which need to be update:-

workdir=~/mfslinux/workdir
mkdir -p $workdir
cd $workdir
fetch -o - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mmatuska/mfslinux/master/config/default/openwrt_packages_add | sort >pkgs.orig.
sed -e 's/_.*$//;/base/!d;s/^.*\///;s/^/Filename:\ /; s/$/_/' pkgs.orig >pkgs.b
sed -e 's/_.*$//;/packages/!d;s/^.*\///;s/^/Filename:\ /; s/$/_/' pkgs.orig >pkgs.p
fetch -o base.Packages https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/21.02.0/packages/x86_64/base/Packages
fetch -o packages.Packages https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/21.02.0/packages/x86_64/packages/Packages
grep -f pkgs.b base.Packages | sed -e 's/Filename:\ /base\//'>pkgs.b.files
grep -f pkgs.p packages.Packages | sed -e 's/Filename:\ /packages\//'>pkgs.p.files
cat pkgs.b.files pkgs.p.files > pkgs.all
diff -y --suppress-common-lines pkgs.orig pkgs.all

Just notice that '-y' is not recognised in the version of diff I have on one of my systems which is running FreeBSD 12.1-RELEASE-p2!

This is what the output should look like:
