[SOLVED] Unable to install ip-full/ip-tiny

I'd like to add a static arp entry and wanted to install ip-full to do this so I could use ip neigh but neither ip-full or ip-tiny now appear in the package lists.

Is there another way to do this now ?

building error.

@ldir
The iproute2 regression might be caused by this commit merged by you:
https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=commitdiff;h=216397b8124dafafbd79afdf9f8e716b55775194;hp=f5753aae233fa64b5d4784ade2cc170f7da539a4
"elfutils: install library files for pkg-config"

https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/faillogs/mips_24kc/base/iproute2/tiny/compile.txt

Package ip-tiny is missing dependencies for the following libraries:
libelf.so.1
Makefile:187: recipe for target '/var/lib/buildbot/slaves/slave-lede-builds4/mips_24kc/build/sdk/bin/packages/mips_24kc/base/ip-tiny_4.19.0-6_mips_24kc.ipk' failed

Possibly now the iproute2 compilation find elfutils and tries to link it in, causing the dependency error.

The only other reasonably possible change was by @dedeckeh for iproute2, but that seems more farfetched as it only touched tc

Thanks for the speedy responses. At least I know it’s not me doing something wrong, will keep an eye on the snapshots for this to be fixed

I reverted the elfutils change in master. I don't understand how I didn't fall over this issue myself as I was certainly able to replicate!
