Description

Both postinst and prerm are returning errors.

root(tty1)$ opkg --force-remove remove lcdshow
Removing lcdshow (2.0) from root...
 * pkg_run_script: package "lcdshow" prerm script returned status 1.
root(tty1)$ opkg install lcdshow_2.0_arm.opk 
Installing lcdshow (2.0) on root.
Configuring lcdshow.
 * pkg_run_script: package "lcdshow" postinst script returned status 1.
 * opkg_configure: lcdshow.postinst returned 1.

I need to test them manually to see where they are having problems. See /etc/opkg/info.

The bug here is that the pibox-hdmi script, which is called from postinst and prerm, used the following syntax:

        [[ ${REBOOT} -eq 1 ]] && reboot

REBOOT is set to 0 which causes this line to make the last command result to be 1 on script exit. To fix the problem, the code must be converted to

        if [[ ${REBOOT} -eq 1 ]]; then
            reboot
        fi
