You are right. After 5.24. has been released Sourceforge deciced to replace http with https only. Therefor upgrade in version 5.2.4 seems to fail. With 5.25-rc1 upgrade has been updated with the wget option you have mentioned above for a given reason... In addition to wget we have had wget-ssl, since wget without ssl support has been a lot smaller for size-constraint environments. We've removed wget w/o ssl in 5.2.5-rc1 for security reasons, believing that size isn't as important as in the old days of floppy uasage and to have *one* wget package that really works with upgrade. So in short - testing upgrade only makes sense, if one tries to upgrade from 5.2.5-rc1. > I guess the real solution is a version of busybox where its wget supports > https.

I wasn't aware of the auxillary ssl_helper, definitely worth to look at it. thx for the detailed and valuable feedback kp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Transform Data into Opportunity.
