Introducing m45t3r's builds

@thiagokokada thiagokokada released this 22 Jul 16:05

Since the (partial) merge of PR ericpaulbishop#565, I decided to drop my customizations and simple create a new profile (based on default) including everything I can. This is the new m45t3r profile.

Differences between m45t3r-9156807 and 1.9.X_m2:

  • Almost vanilla upstream, not trying to figure out anymore what can be disabled to save space.
    • It means that it is more difficult to broke some feature like happened before.
    • And this didn't save too much space anyway, stripping kernel/libraries is what result in the majority of space savings.
  • New versioning: since we just add my profile on top of vanilla upstream, I am using commit id from upstream to identify my builds. This build is based on commit ericpaulbishop@9156807.
  • All plugin-gargoyle-* are compiled and included in the archive.
    • So you can install the plugins that are not already included, for example plugin-gargoyle-i18n-Portuguese-BR to get Brazillian Portuguese translation. You can even try to install OpenVPN or Tor, however it will probably not fit in your router if it have only 4M of Flash.
  • No longer we strip libraries (however kernel is still stripped), following upstream.
    • This mean that you can install applications from OpenWRT main repository, excluding the ones that uses kernel modules for something.
    • This also result in less /overlay space, 320KB (like official 1.9.1) instead of 384KB.
  • No longer we include rejected PR ericpaulbishop#469
    • Waiting for a solution from upstream, until them you can set it yourself using command line.
