Luci not upgradable arm_cortex-a7_neon-vfpv4 [solved]

[oscar]

Hello,
I just made an upgrade from 19.07.5 to 19.07.6. Then I re-installed adblock together with the correspondent lucy file. However,

opkg_download: Failed to download http://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/19.07.6/packages/arm_cortex-a7_neon-vfpv4/luci/luci-compat_git-21.041.07141-8674e2a-1_all.ipk, wget returned 8

Checked the download page. The listed packages for luci in arm_cortex-a7_neon-vfpv4 are significantly less than for other systems, and of course the 'luci-compat_git' file is missing.

It turned out that no luci packages has been upgraded by the upgrade process, nor can any of them be manually upgraded, irrespective of through luci or terminal.

Not sure whether downgrading will solve the issue, as packages for all 19.07.X releases point to this directory.

So what to do?

Cheers
Oscar

You best bet would be build it by yourself.

The buildbot has apparently failed the last build round for that target in 19.07:
http://buildbot.openwrt.org/openwrt-19.07/packages/builders/arm_cortex-a7_neon-vfpv4

It gets soon automatically rebuild in the next build round, but it may take 1-2 days.

Never heard of this ever before....

Thank you. Never built it before, no clue whether it is feasible for ordinary people

After all, it is just LUCI, the system itself is working.

Cheers,
