Hey I just started using openwrt again after a long hiatus on my new Linksys EA7500v2. Seems like it's only supported on snapshot for now but that's probably fine for my purposes.
I updated my packages with opkg update and then ran the following command to try to install tmux:
root@OpenWrt:~# opkg install tmux
Unknown package 'tmux'.
Collected errors:
* opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package tmux.
But when I tried googling it I found this hit on the package manager
which seems to indicate that it exists, so what am I missing here?

Looking around more it seems like that package is maybe broken in snapshot which is why I can't download it.
Found this fail log: https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/faillogs/mips_24kc/packages/tmux/compile.txt
Showing an error during the build:
checking for event.h... no

@scurvybob , welcome to the community!
Did you run opkg update first?

The buildbot has failed to build the package.

Thanks @lleachii . I said in the OP that I ran opkg update.
Looking today that build failure I noticed before is gone.
One more opkg update and tmux installed.
Thanks everyone!
