Om20088.8: packagekitd vs. opkg ?

[Harald Koenig]

Hi,

using the new Om 2008.8 image, /usr/sbin/packagekitd is running and blocks
the use of opkg on command line:

	root at om-gta02:~# opkg install vte
	Collected errors:
	 * Could not obtain administrative lock

	root at om-gta02:~# fuser /usr/lib/opkg/lock
	2805 

	root at om-gta02:~# ps up 2805
	USER       PID %CPU %MEM    VSZ   RSS TTY      STAT START   TIME COMMAND
	root      2805  5.4 12.7  35248 15752 ?        S    16:53   0:04 /usr/sbin/packagekitd


is there a opkg-like command line tool which talks/works with packagekitd ?

or how should this be handled from a remote login or local terminal
(other than "pkill packagekitd" or similar) ?


thanks,

Harald
