http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/ … ackages.gz is too old.
but 'Packages' file is good
so ,anybody forget to gzip the file ?
users cannot run
opkg install luci
to install luci for openwrt ,Packages.gz has r9955, but the ftp has r9960

The upload is automatic process in the the buildbot.
You have probably downloaded just before the buildbot has uploaded the next build's files.

it's ok now~ thanks~

umm ,i'm just install luci for my 703N, but when i run 'uhttpd start' ,it says 'Error: No sockets bound, unable to continue'....
so, how can i do?

you are probably missing some config arguments, as you have kept your old config in sysupgrade.
