RUTX50 Installed python modules deleted on firmware update

Upgraded my RUTX50 to firmware RUTX_R_00.07.07.3

I have a custom python script which relies on the python cryptography module among others, which had been installed using .

When I performed a firmware upgrade it deleted all of the python modules downlaoded from opkg -e /etc/opkg/openwrt/distfeeds.conf
or using the subsequently installed pip module.

My view is that this is a bug in the upgrade process. Is there a way to avoid this?

Hello,

When you use opkg -e /etc/opkg/openwrt/distfeeds.conf, you are installing packages from non-Teltonika feeds, which are not tracked. After a firmware upgrade, tracked packages from our official source are installed if an internet connection is available. This behavior is intentional.

Best regards,

Marijus,

Thank you for the explanation - is there a process for requesting other packages to be included in the Teltonika sources. The packages I would be interested in are:

nano
python3-pip
python3-cryptography

Separately, as an aside, the /etc/opkg/openwrt/distfeeds.conf included with firmware RUTX_R_00.07.08 includes a repo: downloads.openwrt.org/releases/21.02.0/packages/arm_cortex-a7_neon-vfpv4/vuci
which does not exist, causing an error.
