Missing kmod-ip6-tunnel

Hi guys,

I've installed the 21.2.0 release on my Fritzbox 7430 according to the installation method in the git commit. I grabbed the ds-lite_8_all.ipk file and installed it via LuCI but got the following error:

Collected errors:

  • pkg_hash_check_unresolved: cannot find dependency kmod-ip6-tunnel for ds-lite
  • pkg_hash_check_unresolved: cannot find dependency resolveip for ds-lite
  • pkg_hash_fetch_best_installation_candidate: Packages for ds-lite found, but incompatible with the architectures configured
  • opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package ds-lite.
    The opkg install command failed with code 255.

I would have installed those dependencies by hand, just so i can get things going quickly, but unfortunately i couldn't come across a kmod-ip6-tunnel ipk. I thought it might be an issue related to the build so i did a sysupgrade to the latest snapshot but i still have the same issue. Apart from that i also noticed that my wifi card has not been detected, which is less of an issue since i don't actually intend to use it, but that got me thinking that my installation might be broken or something of that sort.

Any ideas?

Note that I'm on kernel 5.4.188

Where did you grab the package from, exactly?

I didn't think of looking there, thanks :slight_smile:
