Install picon ipks via script

Hi im not sure where to put this thread so please move if you wish.

Im currently making a plugin to download picon ipks and place the picon folders in hdd and hdd/SkyQ for me this has been working fine ive had a few people test it and they get mv: cant rename '/picon' : No such file or directory. So I did a fresh flash of openatv and ran the script and get the same error that is when I remembered that I have updated wget to run a script for a skin.

Here are the scripts that im trying to run SNP version https://github.com/davesayers2014/Picon/blob/master/SNP_Picons/Dsayers_SNP_Picon_Updater.sh and SRP version https://github.com/davesayers2014/Picon/blob/master/SRP Picons/Dsayers_SRP_Picon_Updater.sh

The plugin is meant to download my script and run it and works fine after updating wget

#!/bin/sh
#
echo Updating Package sources
eval opkg update

echo Updating wget component...
eval opkg install wget

echo Updating BASH shell...
eval opkg install bash

exit 0

Im hoping someone can make sense of it and work out why it wont work thanks

I would upload the ipks but the forum wont allow me?

Or possibly have the script run the wget update once but not every time

Just to confirm I tried to talnet opkg install https://github.com/davesayers2014/P...sparent_2017-05-09--01-51-03_all.ipk?raw=true --force-depends >/dev/null 2>&1 and no picon folder installed on root with no errors but after updating wget it downloads the picon folder fine

Ok would it be bad to have the update wget within the script so it would attempt to update wget every time the plugin is ran?

Or maybe have if not exist in python to look for a file if the file doesn't exist run the update wget script then have it create a file and download and run the picon script.

After that have else download the script and it should continue to run the picon script.

Still cant get around the update wget if someone wants to try the plugins they can be found here with instructions to update wget just choose the picon type you want ie snp or srp instructions in the readme.md https://github.com/davesayers2014/Picon
