Where do pre-downloaded packages go for image builder?

Why are you acting all self righteous? Who cares when someone that is asking for help is wrong. They would not be asking if they had the same level of knowledge. It's not helpful to anyone finding this thread your acting this way. I told you I got mixed up with the things I've posted and am experiencing.

Your answer doesn't help in any way what so ever. My question is why are the packages showing as being installed yet aren't on the device when I check using opkg list-installed.

because I asked three times to get a full list of commands you are running to generate this firmware image with image builder and you still don't do that

No need to get all puffy over that. If you read, I also said there was no point because I mixed up the question. There is no reason to get this way. Either help someone or don't help them, no one is making you do anything.

Besides, now you are simply wrecking my question. I am still trying to solve the problem.

it's annoying when people you are trying to help can't cooperate and think they know better

Can you please stop the personal attacks and the knowledge bullying. I sure don't need it nor anyone else who will find this thread.

I have never, not even once said that I know more than anyone or that I would be non cooperative. I would not have asked the question in these forums if I could have found my own answer.

In terms of the feeds error, I too have been using image builder for many years and have seen the feeds error countless times. In fact, I'm surprised you even asked me about it considering that the forums are filled with the question asking about this problem.

Look below, I'll show you. Yes, it's an old version because I don't always need the latest so was using 18.06.2. It doesn't seem to happen in version 19.07.7 but with that version, I have the missing packages which is why I originally posted this question.

Calculating checksums...

you stated you use files and there is no FILES in that command...

did you or did you not use FILES on the image that has issues?


what is with the odd paths here;

are you hardlinking or something?

just showing this in your OP would have saved us all alot of time...

which thread is your favourite out of this one and your other one?

You were ignoring my request and stating that "it is not important" to solve your issue.
This is "not cooperating" and "thinking you know more than me".

notice how wulfy also said
"just showing this in your OP would have saved us all alot of time..."
and Stangri post in the other thread.

so it's not just me trolling you

finally. Although you did not say where you downloaded the image builder from. I assume you used official release builds.

Also as Wulfy also said, there is no FILES=... variable in that command so you are not integrating any external config in this image.

so I pulled down the image builder from https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/18.06.2/targets/ramips/mt76x8/

and as you see below yes I see also the same error as you

yours:
Unable to open feeds configuration at /clients/18.06.2-ramips-mt300n-v2/scripts/feeds line 48.

mine (just different folders):

Seems like he extracted the image builder in
/clients/18.06.2-ramips-mt300n-v2

and the Copying xxxxxx is just the Image Builder that is pulling the packages from the dl folder instead than downloading again.

For example if I run again the same command as above, my imagebuilder also fetches the packages from the dl folder

roger... makes sense now... apologies...

You were ignoring my request and stating that "it is not important" to solve your issue.
This is "not cooperating" and "thinking you know more than me".

Never ignored anything, you started making it personal and it became hard to focus on facts and the technology instead of the childish games. You keep trying to find 'weird' things that I'm doing and if I said 'not important', I mean I'm trying not to complicate the post with too many details that are not very relevant.

When I post, I always post with as much detail as is relevant in case it's a simple fix. No one wants to find a thread they have to read dozens and dozens of pages to get to some point. That's why I ended up posting here in fact, got tired of reading post after post and not finding answers.

Can we stop with the personal attacks now and get on with the question?

I have a little tree structure that I maintain different versions in, that's why you see /clients. Not relevant.

I use the files directory when I want to have custom configs. I didn't need it to show the problem in this post so didn't use it as it is non relevant.

I usually use a little script so I don't forget which packages I want to have or not have installed but in this case, to keep things simple, I used the command line so I could show you the error. Non relevant.

are you hardlinking or something?
just showing this in your OP would have saved us all alot of time...

Just showing what? There is no hard linking, there is nothing unusual about what I'm doing.
I download the openwrt IB package, untar it, rename it to the version so I know what it is, go into it and generate what I need.

Although you did not say where you downloaded the image builder from. I assume you
used official release builds.

I would have mentioned if I got it from somewhere else. In fact, I would have then tried an official repo version before posting to see if there was a difference.

and the Copying xxxxxx is just the Image Builder that is pulling the packages from the dl
folder instead than downloading again.

I don't know what you mean by this. I have not changed anything, paths, scripts, have not added packages manually, nothing. I simply downloaded the IB package, untared it and ran the command I showed you to build the fw.

I did find some posts from others suggesting you download the entire package tree and put it into the build environment (or what ever it's called for IB) so they would not need to be downloaded and that is all my original question was asking about.

which thread is your favourite out of this one and your other one?

They are two different questions but somehow related, maybe.

This post was simply asking where do you put manually downloaded packaged. That's all I wanted to know so I could see why the packages are not showing up after I build the fw. I wondered if pre-downloading all of the packages would make any difference. I've not tried that yet because it is still not clear to me where you would put all of the packages.

The other post was asking why when I build using 19.x.x, I can see the packages I want being downloaded, installed and enabled but when I fire up the fw, those packages do not exist but some of their config files do.

my bad with the /client path thing...

its unlikely there is a correlation between absence of package stuff in firmware vs builder package locations... with recommended practices... you only place 'extra' non-official (or preferred) ipks in the 'packages' folder...

anything in addition to that is 'non-standard' and you'd have to ask the people who advised you to do so...

and you get people asking for more info every single time. I've looked at your post history and maybe you should too.

maybe it is language barrier, I don't know.

I was explaining to wulfy23 what the Image Builder is doing when you see lines that start with Copying.

The image builder is leaving the packages in the dl folder and will not download them again if the version is not different. This saves download bandwith for download server.

So the first time you run IB it downloads the package and you see

Downloading http://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/18.06.2/targets/ramips/mt76x8/packages/libgcc_7.3.0-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk

the second (and any other) time you see

because it is just taking the package from the dl folder.

I think I told you. All the packages go in the dl folder.

In your folder structure, it should be /clients/18.06.2-ramips-mt300n-v2/dl

But I do not think this is a solution. The failure is not at package install stage but later.

Aha, found it. The error Unable to open feeds configuration at /scripts/feeds line 48. is harmless spam.
It is not a real error, you can ignore it.
It was removed in more recent image builders to not confuse users with an error message.

I do not get that with latest image builder from 19.07 and 21.02-rc3.
So that is not connected to issues you have.

This is the commit

build: suppress error output in feeds.mk

If no feed.conf or feeds.conf.default is found on image generation with
the imagebuilder we always get the following message "Unable to open
feeds configuration at /scripts/feeds line 48." on std error.

To get rid off this needless warning on image generation with the
imagebuilder supress the output in feeds.mk.

I do not get that with latest image builder from 19.07 and 21.02-rc3.

I mentioned that a while back too, that it only happens in older versions that I maintain. This was not my question anyhow.

I think I told you. All the packages go in the dl folder.

Um, yes, you said that but it never answered my original question.
This is what you said in your last couple of comments.

Btw, the folder where all packages are downloaded is "dl"
for example with the x86 target image builder

I know that the downloads go into the dl directory but that's never been my question. I asked from the start, where do manually downloaded packages go.

Someone else said in the packages directory which is what I was thinking before I even posted this question but could not find anything that shows how the structure works.

Meaning, I can see the packages in the packages/ directory but there is no sub-folder structure. I'm guessing that all of the different packages for things like base, luci, telephony etc which are sub-directories don't all go in that one packages/ directory.

manually downloaded packages go in the same folder. There is ONE folder for all packages from the feeds and it is called dl. Manually downloaded, automatically downloaded. All feed packages go there.

I still give you instructions for what you wrote in the first post
"I decided to download all of the packages but I'm not finding any information on where I need to put them in the build env"

If you want to add packages that are NOT in official OpenWrt feeds the procedure is different.

The Packages directory contains the kernel and some core packages. It is like the dl folder, but only for them.
It is the "packages" folder you see in the bottom table of this page https://archive.openwrt.org/releases/18.06.2/targets/ramips/mt76x8/

this is the direct link to that page https://archive.openwrt.org/releases/18.06.2/targets/ramips/mt76x8/packages/

There is no structure, the Image Builder does not need a structure, it finds the files by name, using the package list files.

If you run the imagebuilder with this command

make image PROFILE="gl-mt300n-v2" PACKAGES="bash bc curl vnstat zabbix-agentd luci"

then you can see luci packages in dl folder, see below

Yes, I see them in there. So in the end, you are simply saying that any packages I manually download should go into the dl folder. Ok, no problem but I was actually asking about the entire tree. Maybe that is not how openwrt does it anymore. There used to be a packages directory and in there, sub-folders with additional packages.

Anyhow, all good I think since I only wanted to have the packages I want to install in the dl directory so don't need every single package I won't be installing. I just wanted to try that as a test to try and find a lead on the problem in the other post.

That's the build system. If you download the full build system from github and compile from sources, in the compiled binary folder you have the folder with the firmware image AND a packages folder with a tree like that because it splits packages by feed, and each folder has a package list file.
If you take the folders and load them on a server, each folder is a working package feed that can be used by a device (or image builder) to download packages from.
That is how OpenWrt download server actually works, the build bots just copy over the folders to the download servers.

Image builder is not creating feed folders, it is just making a firmware image. So it does not split packages in a tree. It only needs to cache the packages, and a single folder is fine for that.

I was going to ask that too thinking that might be the case. Good, this part is solved, thank you for helping.

I wanted to save someone the trouble of reading most of this pointless thread by editing my first post as follows.

SOLVED
When using image builder, put your downloaded files in the dl directory.
When using source, put your packages in the packages folder and sub-folders.

Thank you. I'm absolutely sure folks that find this will appreciate knowing the answer in the first post.
