Opkg problem [SOLVED]

[GeHeNoM]

Hey,

In the last few days i can't update my opkg, seem it's beacuse the link is not download the correct file when updating opkg.

If you have problem with opkg that you cant install new package and when you try the command:

opkg list

It show you the installed problem, i have a fix for you:

Change the link in /etc/opkg.conf from:

src/gz snapshots http://cloud.wifipineapple.com/packages

To:

src/gz snapshots http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/ar71xx/packages

This is the same directory anyway but this fix the bug.

I belive that the administrators fix this asap but until then, you're not stuck.

if you got problem with this talk to me,

Yeah, please don't do this. The issues seem to lie with you - works flawlessly here.

Test it, go to http://cloud.wifipineapple.com/packages

You'll run into issues at some point if you do the above 'fix'.

Alright, the caching issue we faced is resolved now.

Please don't apply the above fix anymore / remove it if you put it there. Why? Because it means that you'll break other support.

You'll see, the original url will work now.

Best Regards,
