Cannot install plugins or update image - 02/14/21 11:22 PM

I have OpenPLi 7.3 Star on my DM920 (I guess OpenPLi 7.3Star 20200924 4k 1.17.0.1)
Whenever I want to do an update of whenever I want to install a plugin from the feed I get this message:
Quote:
Collected errors:

* Problem 2/2:
* - nothing provides requested python-lxml
*
* Solution 1:
* - do not ask to install a package providing python-lxml


I don't understand what this means.


I had installed the image of 20210112 before, but that gave similair messages, see attachement, so I reverted to my backup of the above mentioned version.

Use the "opkg update" then the grep command to see if the feeds have the files you need.

For both version you have the same feeds, but remember the latest version is the one compatible with the feeds, as older images would update with the feeds to reach the latest version published.

See for grep/opkg, and do it for each package you would need.

Code:
opkg update
opkg list | grep python-lxml
opkg list_installed | grep python-lxml


If the packages you need are not available on the feeds, most probably then you will need the release of the OpenPLi 8.0star, we are working on the new version but we have no date yet of release.

I did your code but I still got the same errors.
First I want to make my DM920 multiboot, then I'd like to give the newest image a try again.
