Description Chaitanya Vadrevu 2019-02-22 22:17:38 UTC 
If a newer version of a package is installed on a system and the feed points to an older version, `opkg download` gives the following output

------------------------------------------------------
Downloaded <pkgname> as <pkgname-newerversion.ipk>
Collected errors:
 * get_pkg_url: Package <pkgname> is not available from any configured src.

------------------------------------------------------

And although the output says newer version of the package is downloaded (when it should have tried to download the older version), nothing is downloaded to working directory.
