Advice about failure installing package ip-full (stepup from ip-tiny)>

Installing and Using OpenWrt

With opkg, I might have worked it out or google-fu’ed enough info: apk is bleeding new and there’s next to nothing written about it for ort

root@OpenWrtTTG:/lib/netifd# apk add ip-full
ERROR: unable to select packages:

Hrmm.

You can manipulate package set via owut or attendedsysupgrade.

why are you running a snapshot on a R7800, it's not a bleeding edge device.

4

It is next-stable-snapshot, quite ok and stable.

I know what it is, question was why they used it ...

Try:

apk update
apk del ip-tiny
apk add ip-full

r7800 has plenty of life left in it, because it’s a community build it gets used in a lot of different ways; ansuel etc is still I think busting bugs and refining the supporting code so it actually does benefit from leading-edge. There are downsides like what I’m posting about the reliability of it now makes it worth it

thanks blue.. that was my first instinct but I know nothing of this new packaging system

Getting cautious in my old age if there’s breakage I’ll report back :stuck_out_tongue:
