Packages: [Orig: #21654] Aiccu should depend on ip or ip-full

[leleobhz]

I'm affected by the bug https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/21654 and i reproduced it:

It's possible to add ip and ip-full to satisfied conditions?

I guess it is more an ip-full issue as it does not "provides ip". If so, aiccu could simply continue to require ip.

[leleobhz]

@luizluca Indeed. But ip-full reports are covered by this bugtrack?

Again, ip-full superseeds ip package. Its not possible to fill this dependency?

ping aiccu and tayga's current maintainer @oskar456 ;)

I've found probably same issue with core package openvpn which is probably the only core package depending (at least conditionally) on ip. Other packages depending on +ip are:
mwan3, opennhrp, strongswan, shadowsocks-libev, chaosvpn

Is there any way how to depend on either ip or ip-full?
I have no idea.

[oskar456]

It could probably work like this:

DEPENDS:=… @(PACKAGE_ip||PACKAGE_ip-full)

But it would mean the package is not visible unless ip or ip-full is selected.

Once the package PROVIDES handling has been improved, this can be properly fixed. See http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/lede-dev/2016-October/003643.html

@oskar456 @leleobhz
Is still package still broken?

[oskar456]

AFAIK yes. And since the SixXS service has been shut down on 2017-06-06 and the server implementation of TIC/AYIYA protocol is SixXS proprietary, I don't see a point in trying to fix it.

@oskar456
I see, please close this and provide a pull request removing aiccu.

[oskar456]

Good idea, pull request submitted. So long and thanks for all the tunnels.

@thess @hnyman
Please close this.
