Description

My packages list is the same one, and each time I request a build, the Firmware Selector serves me that days old build with outdated packages, instead of rebuilding. I tried modifying the list of packages and as suspected, the updated firewall4 (for example) package was included. Any help would be appreciated! Switching to a new point release of course includes updated packages. I first reported this in the Forum.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Firmware Selector request for the TP-Link Archer C50 V4 with an unchanged package list and compare it with a request whose list is modified. Trace how repeated requests are handled and verify that a current build with updated packages is returned without requiring a package-list change.
