Comment:
You are free to compile oldpackages yourself.
Also we still provide binaries for the BB release just not in the
snapshots.
See e.g. http://downloads.openwrt.org/barrier_breaker/14.07-rc2
To build packages from "oldpackages" by yourself:
1. Copy feeds.conf.default to feeds.conf
2. Open feeds.conf and remove the # in front of "src-git oldpackages
[...]"
3. Do ./scripts/feeds update
You can now use ./scripts/feeds install xyz to make a package appear in
make menuconfig.
To make all of them visible use ./scripts/feeds install -a -p oldpackages
