openwrt repository

Tell me if the packages from the openwrt repository will work, if so, what difficulties can there be on the installation path?
Packages will generally work. For maximum compatibility, use the closest package repository to the version from Gargoyle.
i.e.
Gargoyle 1.10.x - Openwrt 15.05
Gargoyle 1.12.x - Openwrt 18.06
Gargoyle 1.13.x - Openwrt 19.07
If the package you are after has a dependency on a kernel module (kmod), it won't install as your build won't be an exact match. In this case you can attempt to force install, but it is generally safer/better to compile your own in such cases.
