Tried also without ':80'. There really is no easy way to get any package or to update repositories - I think it is nessesary to include all required packages and certificates or provide non-expert users with ability to download everything via traditional unencrypted http connection, as I don't know way to pass --no-check-certificate to wget using opkg.

Image used: https://librecmc.org/librecmc/downloads/snapshots/v1.4-core/ar71xx/generic/librecmc-ar71xx-generic-tl-mr3020-v1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin

This bug is partially fixed. v1.4-core images were compiled without some dependencies. All v1.4-core images have been recompiled and the issue will be fixed in v1.4.1.

Ok,but now no TL-3020 image at all. Is this intentional?

I was not able to install it and I needed it a lot I came here and found a way to install it so I am giving the tip of this Chuckys Tiffany Valentine Black Jacket to the person who shared it.

A portion of the bug has been fixed. Images for v1.4-core were assembled without certain dependencies. After recompiling all v1.4-core images, the problem will be resolved in v1.4.1. build now gg

It seems you're facing difficulties with opkg installation or updates from official repositories. To bypass SSL verification, try modifying the opkg.conf file with "option check_signature 0." However, note that this poses security risks. For non-expert users, consider a pre-packaged solution.
