[OpenWrt-Devel] How to install 3rd party package in OpenWrt

[Pratik Prajapati]

Hi,

What's the difference between following 2 methods in package makefile:

1) PKG_INSTALL:=1

logs:
make[2]: Leaving directory
`/home/pratik.prajapati/work/openwrt-radvd/openwrt-tip/openwrt/package/libs/toolchain'
make[2]: Entering directory

make[1]: Leaving directory
`/home/pratik.prajapati/work/openwrt-radvd/openwrt-tip/openwrt'

2)
define Package/radvd-2.11/install
       $(call Build/Install/Default)
endef

Using second method I was able to install package but not with 1st method.
For 1st method following was written here
http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/devel/packages#dependencytypes:
PKG_INSTALL - Setting it to "1" will call the package's original "make
install" with prefix set to PKG_INSTALL_DIR

Is I am missing something for 1st method ?
