Hi all,

I'm trying to install ipset but am having some problems. My version:

OpenWrt Chaos Calmer 15.05.1 r49389 / LuCI for-15.05 branch (git-16.206.66468-6f5c466)

Here's what I see (h t t p is replaced with link-- for the forum's restriction on links)

Collected errors:
 * satisfy_dependencies_for: Cannot satisfy the following dependencies for ipset:
 *      kernel (= 3.18.23-1-81be0e40bf30c51dba2c46c84dd50f29) *         kernel (= 3.18.23-1-81be0e40bf30c51dba2c46c84dd50f29) *
 * opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package ipset.

The repo version seems to match my OpenWrt version, but the requirement on kernel version seems to suggest ipset in the repo is not updated. Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance!

you can try the --force-depends option  or better yet try LEDE (openwrt v17)  if your hardware has support for it

Thank you. Since ipset is supported by the kernel, I'm not sure about the version mismatching.

I will give LEDE a try.

The discussion might have continued from here.
