install owfs from package list source

[do3meli]

currently the owfs package gets manually downloaded and installed by the setup.sh script. i found out that the owfs packages exist in the official raspberry package list so it could be installed with apt.

• remove current owfs download in setup.sh
• add apt-get install in AbioWire section of setup.sh
• create cleanup-upgrade patch to remove the AbioWire directory as it is no longer needed

see the found owfs packages:

pi@domopi2 ~/piLogger/AbioWire $ sudo apt-cache search owfs

It might be that OWFS support AbioWire nowadays. When I created the setup.sh script the bundled owfs did not.

We can easily either ignore that the owhttpd and owftpd or disable them after install, if we go for the normal repo owfs, which is of course the preferred way to go if the AbioWire card works with it.

i did not check for the AbioWire support...

[do3meli]

AbioWire uses 1-Wire I2C host controllers (2 x DS2482-800 + 1 x DS2482-100) as per: http://www.axiris.eu/en/index.php/1-wire/abiowire

i have checked owfs official page and they seem to support these 2 different controllers: http://owfs.org/index.php?page=i2c-ds2482-800 http://owfs.org/index.php?page=i2c-ds2482-100

unfortunately i do not have a spare AbioWire Board and i dont want to test it with my existing setup :smile:
