      (I don't see a general place for this question... hopefully I'm in the right place ;) )

      Running 2.5.2-release...

      First time I've ever seen this:

      • Went to "available packages"; the list populated ok.
      • Picked a package (apcupsd... and later nut)
      • clicked "Confirm" button
      • waited...and waited. NOTHING happened
      • refreshed the page. Then it says please wait
      • again... NOTHING
      • after waiting 20 minutes, I visited another page and came back
      • the install obviously had completed

      Same result with uninstall.

      Looks like some kind of refresh capability is busted.

      AFAIK I am not running anything that would cause trouble.

      This is in chrome brower

        @mrpete I have not noticed that, but have occasionally seen issues with packages or updates over the years. I would restart the router and see if you can duplicate it then.

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.
