    "Upgrade available" flashes constantly

    This phenomenon started after I upgraded to 5.4.004
    No error messages or other problems during the last upgrade.

    It says "Do you want to upgrade your Vu + Duo 4K?"
    (1 updated package available)

    What to do?
    Vu+ Duo 4K 1 x FBC S2(X) on 0.8º W, 4 TB HD 2.5"
    Vu+ Ultimo 4K 1 x FBC S2(X) on 0.8º W, 2 TB HD 2.5"
    All with latest stable image
    80 cm dish with Diavolo Unicable II LNB

    Hi,
    there might be a conflict and a packet could not be updated and therefore you get this message over and over again. With telnet and opkg list-upgradable you can find out which package caused this conflict.

    Something like this?

    root@vuduo4k:~# opkg list-upgradable
    Not selecting libx264-161 r2970+git0+0d754ec360 as installing it would break existing dependencies.

    That is the same issue as here:
    https://www.world-of-satellite.com/s...hlight=libx264

    Flash newest image and restore settings and plugin will overcome the hurdle. Otherwise install the libx264 using the force command

    Normally it is
    opkg install -force-depends name_of_package

    So please try this:
    opkg install -force-depends libx264-161


    If that doesn't work
    opkg -force-reinstall libx264-161

    Code:
    Force Options:
            --force-depends                 Install/remove despite failed dependencies
            --force-maintainer              Overwrite preexisting config files
            --force-reinstall               Reinstall package(s)
            --force-overwrite               Overwrite files from other package(s)
            --force-downgrade               Allow opkg to downgrade packages
            --force-space                   Disable free space checks
            --force-postinstall             Run postinstall scripts even in offline mode
            --force-remove                  Remove package even if prerm script fails
            --force-checksum                Don't fail on checksum mismatches
            --noaction                      No action -- test only
            --download-only                 No action -- download only
            --nodeps                        Do not follow dependencies
            --no-install-recommends         Do not install any recommended packages
            --force-removal-of-dependent-packages
                                            Remove package and all dependencies
            --autoremove                    Remove packages that were installed
                                            automatically to satisfy dependencies
            --host-cache-dir                Don't place cache in offline root dir.
            --volatile-cache                Use volatile cache.
                                            Volatile cache will be cleared on exit
    
     glob could be something like 'pkgname*' '*file*' or similar
     e.g. opkg info 'libstd*' or opkg search '*libop*' or opkg remove 'libncur*'

    This happens:

    root@vuultimo4k:~# opkg install --force-depends libx264-161
    Package libx264-161 (r2970+git0+4121277b40-r0) installed in root is up to date.

    root@vuultimo4k:~# opkg install --force-reinstall libx264-161
    Not selecting libx264-161 r2970+git0+0d754ec360 as installing it would break existing dependencies.
    Collected errors:
    * get_pkg_url: Package libx264-161 is not available from any configured src.

    So I can't get that package updated. Only chance to do couch flash ?

    You could ignore it.

    Problem is that every time package is updated, it will fail the online update.
