TP-Link TL-WDR4300 Strongswan

For Developers

Hi,

I have updated my openwrt to lede project. Now I want to install strongswan for my vpn configuration.
The package is listed in luci package manager, but installing fails.

Now on the command line opkg update / opkg find strong does not return anything.

Looking at "http://downloads.lede-project.org/snapshots/packages/mips_24kc/packages/" does not show up any strongswan packages.

But looking at "http://downloads.lede-project.org/snapshots/packages/mipsel_24kc/packages/" shows up the strongswan packages.

So is there any difference between mips_24kc and mipsel_24kc?

Best regards

There is a major difference. mipsel = "little endian" while mips = "big endian" byte order processor architecture.

But actually right now there are lots of strongswan packages in mips_24kc dir:

You likely managed to look at there just when the last automatic buildbot snapshot build was being uploaded (after first removing the previous binaries).
