I'm getting a slightly different variant of this error on 24.10.1:
# owut check -v
owut - OpenWrt Upgrade Tool 2025.04.08~ef2bfb4d-r1 (/usr/bin/owut)
ERROR: Failed to connect
ERROR: Response status (null) while downloading
https://sysupgrade.openwrt.org/json/v1/overview.json
But I don't think it is owut itself that is the issue. Luci attended sysupgrade isn't working either, though it just hangs indefinitely instead.
Just want to understand: why is it safe to ignore/skip these "bad" packages and proceed with an upgrade build? Because newer versions will come with the build anyways?
Here's the output from mine, before I've attempted to update:
root@OpenWrt:~# missing=$(owut check -v | awk '/missing to-version/ {print $1}') && owut check -v -r "$missing"
ERROR: Checks reveal errors, do not upgrade

It is safe to proceed with an upgrade
Those are libraries including the ABI version as part of the package name (similar kmods), so you'll need the 'new' one there.
So what will happen if I force upgrade? Will something in OpenWrt attempt to call on those missing packages, or are they just unused orphan packages that mean nothing (in this case, ignored to bypass the upgrade check)?
They are dependencies of other packages, so removing them has no effect on the build. The only reason you see them is because owut checks to make sure that all of the installed packages (including those non-top-level ones) actually exist and includes them in the package reporting when they can't be found.
You can't as they no longer exist, owut will just stop with Update checks reveal errors, can't proceed.
The underlying issue is with apk, as it is missing a means for saving the ABI version in the metadata (current status here https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/apk-tools/-/issues/11066). With opkg that information is in the package metadata and installed database, so when you say ubus call rpc-sys packagelist the ABI versions are stripped from the name and you get the canonical libubus and not libubus20250102 or whatever the current version is. This allows owut to say, "We have libubus installed, is there one available? Ok, yes, then all is good and I don't have to say anything."
Is this no longer valid?
My output from
missing=$(owut check -v | awk '/missing to-version/ {print $1}') && owut check -v -r "$missing"
says
It is safe to proceed with an upgrade
So I could run
missing=$(owut check -v | awk '/missing to-version/ {print $1}') && owut upgrade -v -r "$missing"
?
Yes, that's fine, but...
If none of the ABI-versioned libraries have changed since your last upgrade, then $missing will be empty and the dangling -r will generate an error. (In that case a simple owut upgrade will work.)
$ owut check -r ""
'store' action requires a value
... blah blah
I ran it and here's the beautiful output.
Thank you @efahl for all your hard work and dedication to improving the update process!

We are right on the cusp of not needing this any longer!
Yesterday's commit on apk-tools which resolved this request for custom tags adds the capability to the apk command to include the missing ABI version data into the package metadata and indexes. I've got a partial port of the above new code in my build environment and have worked all day on getting all the other bits and pieces together.
So far ☒-not started; ☐-started; 
-done:
In the openwrt repo, upgrade apk-tools to 20250606 (3.0.0_rc5) for both build host and devices (changes in package/system/apk/Makefile).
Merged https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/commit/f244ff22d904f9cd9ea733a3d0cd1bc3a834bb67
Fix include/package-pack.mk to generate packages containing the new openwrt:abiversion tag (tag name pending approval)
☐ PR submitted https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/19082
Enhance package/Makefile to create a new packages.json containing information for use by the ASU server (or any other tools that need it)
Update package/Makefile's generation of the already-existing index.json so that it contains ABI-version-free names.
Merged https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/commit/2b0b16f1d1571b23425b2d7ab5dc3816e2ceec12
Cherrypick to 24.10 https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/commit/c99d356747a26d68bdb04719a4c4c7a954db8d6e
In the asu repo, add parsing of the packages.json file to the ASU server
Probably nothing needed on ASU server if index.json has proper content (but optimizations will be possible, once #3 is done).
Merged https://github.com/openwrt/asu/commit/55baae22579d3f5054539b90390b31d2d548e552
In the rpcd repo, rewrite rpcd/sys.c to produce ABI-stripped package names when ubus call rpc-sys packagelist is called.
☐ PR submitted https://github.com/openwrt/rpcd/pull/12
☒ Will require update in package/system/rpcd/Makefile once accepted
The code is all done (pending any tweaks), and is actually quite trivial, albeit scattered around a bit, but getting things through the process and then waiting for the builds to get the changes onto the downloads site might take a while.
Once all those changes are in and have propagated through the builds, I can begin testing owut, which shouldn't need any changes, but you never know...
