Hi,

since 2 days i cant install luci.

I get - i try "opkg install luci-ssl"...no matter wihc build. Thats since 2 days.

Collected errors:

  • satisfy_dependencies_for: Cannot satisfy the following dependencies for luci-ssl:

[/quote]How about filing a bug at https://bugs.lede-project.org so that devs will notice it?

In any case, you can fix your personal problem by installing the three modules manually:

opkg install luci
opkg install libustream-mbedtls
opkg install px5g-mbedtls

I tested it and installing luci-ssl to a live router does not work, you are right. The error is likely due to px5g-mbedtls "providing" px5g, which fails with "opkg install" to a live router, but succeeds with "make menuconfig" when you configure your own build for compilation.

@jow
Could this be due to master switching to a new version of opkg?
The package info looks sensible:
luci-ssl depends on px5g and px5g-mbedtls provides px5g

Strange. I wonder if the provides thing works in opkg.

@jow
installing luci-ssl works ok in 17.01 although package deps & provides are similar, so my strong hunch is that this is somehow related to the new opkg that master uses.

(Note that 17.01 has the old px5g-standalone unlike master, where it changed again a few days ago to statically linked px5g-mbedtls, but from opkg perspective the package data looks similar in both. So I am inclined to blame opkg at this point.)

@jow
one more observation:
in 17.01 the command "opkg whatprovides px5g" works, but it hangs on master:

17.01
root@O2:~# opkg whatprovides px5g
What provides px5g
    px5g-mbedtls

master:
root@LEDE:/# opkg whatprovides px5g
What provides px5g

root@LEDE:/# opkg -v
opkg version f9baf914f8fd0179e575deeebabe463d9f87e850 (2017-02-23)

Thanks for the advice. Im not so familiar with all that cli stuff

Thanks @jow
I compiled opkg from opkg-lede HEAD for ipq806x and both problems seem to be fixed:
