The same package selection worked fine when compiling a week ago, but now it's throwing an error.

It does not work since a few days. During imagebuilder for x86-64 it get:

```plaintext
Installing packages...
ERROR: unable to select packages:
kmod-nf-log6 (no such package):
required by: world[kmod-nf-log6]
make[2]: *** [Makefile:266: package_install] Error 1
make[1]: *** [Makefile:195: _call_image] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:383: image] Fehler 2

```

Both kmod packages exit:

> **[Index of...](https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/targets/x86/64/kmods/6.18.55-1-e712ce9e3ece2958b5edbf706e1354fa/)**

|kmod-nf-log-6.18.55-r1.apk|9.0 KB|Fri Oct 23 12:03:50 2026|  
|kmod-nf-log6-6.18.55-r1.apk|0.7 KB|Fri Oct 23 12:03:50 2026|

But sth. is telling the imagebuilder log6 is not there. If i deselect both packages it runs through. Building from scratch for a device its included normally without any build errors.

Do you see this package with the error message in the latest [kmod pack](https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/targets/qualcommax/ipq60xx/kmods/6.18.55-1-0ff37031ef0b28de1336b64ebb12c3a9/) ?

I see the package removed: [https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/26067](https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/26067).

Yeah, it was removed, just ignore/force/remove it at your whim and the next upgrade will banish it forever.

owut upgrade --remove kmod-nf-log6
