[Gioacchino Mazzurco]

Hi all!

After nico commit [0] batman-adv stopped working in openwrt backfire (
the crc16 modules is still kmod-crc16 in openwrt stable )

the batman-adv module refuse to load without error message on stdout
but saying that crc16 is missing on dmesg


selecting manually kernel modules -> other modules -> kmod-crc16 it work again

the OpenWrt developers have renamed the package dependency. Unless you are 
using the OpenWrt trunk after revision 28656 the package dependency selection 
won't work anymore.

Maybe you should ask them about their concept of backward compatibility.

Cheers,
Marek

More over backfire is not an old release but the stable one, aka the
one people should use...

I have to roll back here. You are using backfire while grabbing the packages 
from trunk. You are not supposed to do that. There is a specific backfire 
branch maintained by the OpenWrt developers which is kept compatible (I wasn't 
aware of that).

If you mix backfire and trunk you have to deal with the consequences yourself.

Thought the same. How do you get the trunk batman-adv package without noticing 
the backfire package feed ? Do you download the package feed manually (without 
using scripts/feeds) ?

because openwrt devs recommends to use manually created feeds.conf
instead to use feeds.conf.default that is ignored if feeds.conf exist
so feeds.conf.default got updated but my scripts/update -a ignored him

my feeds.conf was created before feeds.conf.default packages entry got
url changed
