<p>Just to clarify things, version 4.0 (codenamed <em>Macondo</em>) is the latest stable release (as of late 2018). Versions "4.0-rc1-Macondo" or "4.0-rc1" are the same thing, the 1st release candidate for version 4.0 <em>Macondo</em>. In general terms, the whole collection of packages is only available for the latest release, so for the 4.0-rc1 or the oldstable 3.2.1 (codenamed <em>Clearance</em>) versions, only the precompiled binaries are kept; not the packages. But you may compile them on your own, that's for granted.</p>
<ol>
<li>I have no clue how checking out the "4.0" branch ended up building the "4.0-rc1" version; I'll try to investigate it. However, here are some questions/tips:</li>
<ul>
<li>Are you maybe cloning the deprecated "qmp*fw*" repository, instead of the current [qmp-cooker](<a class="external" href="https://dev.qmp.cat/projects/qmp-cooker/repository">https://dev.qmp.cat/projects/qmp-cooker/repository</a>) one?</li>
<li>You can check the detailed building instructions in this [release post](<a class="external" href="https://www.qmp.cat/News/35_qMp_4.0_Macondo_released">https://www.qmp.cat/News/35_qMp_4.0_Macondo_released</a>).</li>
<li>The information/documentation at <a class="external" href="https://dev.qmp.cat">https://dev.qmp.cat</a> is, mostly, outdated. Sorry about that.</li>
</ul></li>
</ol>
<ol>
<li>There is no such 4.1 release yet, you should take it just as a fictional example. The same as when you read <a class="external" href="http://www.example.com">www.example.com</a>, or <a class="external" href="http://YOUR_SERVER_IP;">http://YOUR_SERVER_IP;</a> it's not a fake IP, it's meant to be an example. The ".qmp.cat" link is not a fake link, it's a mistake and it should read "downloads.qmp.cat". Again, sorry about that. Now it's been fixed, but you could have imagined it, couldn't you?</li>
</ol>
<ol>
<li>Most of the attached images, documents and files were accidentally removed and, most likely, were lost forever. So sad, there was no backup! :(</li>
</ol>
<ol>
<li>The Graph page actually belongs to the luci-app-bmx6 package at <a class="external" href="https://github.com/openwrt-routing/packages/tree/master/luci-app-bmx6">https://github.com/openwrt-routing/packages/tree/master/luci-app-bmx6</a>. You may want to open a pull request there and notify the maintainers. Additionally, you are very welcome to contribute your code to fix it! :)</li>
</ol>
<p>Last, but not least, it might be better to write to the qMp mailing lists than opening an issue here. Check <a class="external" href="http://www.qmp.cat/Contact">http://www.qmp.cat/Contact</a> for more information.</p>
<p>You're welcome!</p>
