Plugins are all 10MB or larger

Post by thunderdust »

In System --> Plugins --> Plugin List, the plugins (with the exception of "themes" and "USB printer...") have always appeared as at least 10MB or bigger of required disk space.

I see other people have posted similar problems, but I haven't been able to find a solution. Does anyone know why this might be happening, and how to fix it?

My setup:
Gargoyle 1.9.0
D-Link DIR-615 rev. C1

Everything has been working beautifully for many months :D

Thanks for any help!

I have the same issue here. :(
In my situation the link is shown as: "http://www.gargoyle-router.com/packages ... xx/default".
With that I'm not able to f.e. install the german language plugin.
PS: using the "gargoyle_1.9.x-ar71xx-generic-tl-wr841n-v9-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin" from the "gargoyle-ispy 2016-April-08 07_55.torrent".

Update: Also plugins which could be installed because of small size (like the "Theme by Matei for Gargoyle, Version: 1.9.0-1, Status: Not Installed
Required Disk Space: 7.285 kBytes" can't be installed. This means, I can install it, but even after a reboot nothing changes. The plugin keeps installable.

schnurlos, what router are you using? Is your router 4MB flash? I have a feeling that our problem may have something to do with that. Hopefully Lantis gets back to us. He's very knowledgeable.

Most plug-in dependencies are libc library, but for some reason it is not pre-installed. Installing the libc library requires about 10Mb.
