#21367: 15.05 version kernel updated but not packages in repository
(ramips/rt305x)
----------------------+--------------------------------
Reporter: yurtesen | Owner: developers
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: packages | Version: Chaos Calmer 15.05
Keywords: |
----------------------+--------------------------------
I realized that the packages at the repository are built for 3.8.20 kernel
(I dont know if same applies to other builds):
https://downloads.openwrt.org/chaos_calmer/15.05/ramips/rt305x/packages/base/
But the kernel was updated to 3.8.23 at some point:
http://git.openwrt.org/?p=15.05/openwrt.git;a=shortlog
Now the problem is that it is more difficult to install kernel modules. I
think either kernel should not be updated once a version is released OR
there should be an -updates package repository which is rebuilt from
latest updated release sources to accommodate for this. The result of the
problem is below:
root@OpenWrt:/# opkg install kmod-rtl8192cu
Installing kmod-rtl8192cu (3.18.20+2015-03-09-3) to root...

/kmod-rtl8192cu_3.18.20+2015-03-09-3_ramips_24kec.ipk.
Multiple packages (kmod-usb-core and kmod-usb-core) providing same name
marked HOLD or PREFER. Using latest.
