Hello,

I am trying to install Midnight Commander (ipkg install mc) on my router, but it needs e2fsprogs & e2fslibs to run and when it's trying to wget them, it fails, because the files have been deleted from the server.

Code:
Installing mc (4.7.5.5-1) to /opt/...
Downloading http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/mbwe-bluering/cross/stable/mc_4.7.5.5-1_arm.ipk
Installing e2fslibs (1.41.12-1) to /opt/...
Downloading http://nw-dlcdnet.asus.com/asusware/arm/stable/e2fslibs_1.41.12-1_arm.ipk
wget: server returned error: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Nothing to be done
An error ocurred, return value: 22.
Collected errors:
ipkg_download: ERROR: Command failed with return value 1: `wget    -q -P /opt/ipkg-KTRXot http://nw-dlcdnet.asus.com/asusware/arm/stable/e2fslibs_1.41.12-1_arm.ipk'
Failed to download e2fslibs. Perhaps you need to run 'ipkg update'?

I found a page written by merlin with sources for all the files I need, but is there a way to install this manually?

The source: https://github.com/RMerl/asuswrt-merlin/blob/master/release/src/router/rom/optware.mbwe-bluering
 
commenting out the asusware repo in /opt/etc/ipkg.conf should fix this
