Title: What is the difference between stock and repo version of squashfstools?
Post by: bmarkus on September 16, 2012, 05:09:25 AM

As far as I remember the repo version of squshfstools is teaked somehow and not exactly configured (patched?) as upstream. What is the difference? On RPI I'm using the Raspberry version to create .tcz and it works fine.

See ftp://ftp.nluug.nl/pub/metalab/distributions/tinycorelinux/3.x/tcz/src/squashfs-tools-4.2/

It simply tweaks the default options to be more suitable for TC (default blocksize, xattrs off, permissions of the created file). You can do all that with command line options on stock tools (+ chmod), but not having to specify those eases packaging.

Now it is rebuilt a Raspberri Pi using build scropt above, just removing Intel specific compiler flags.
