It seems highly inappropriate to bump a package to a completely incompatible version in the stable 15.05 branch. It was always beaten into me that the only updates for packages in stable branches were for point releases and bugfixes. Bumping libwebsockets to the _very_ incompatible 2.x from the 1.3 release that had been stable in the 15.05 branch makes no sense to me, and I see no emails even complaining about the old version in 15.05, let alone asking for a new one.
Ref: https://github.com/openwrt/packages/commit/e245e2b8246d0d25892d3dc2af0d3834ef95a02e If this is for some project of your own, please use your own private feed instead of trampling over everyone's stable branch. If the stable branch is too old, perhaps consider whether a new release is due. Re ABI compatibility: https://libwebsockets.org/abi/timeline/libwebsockets/index.html the version you've updated from is so different it's not even listed on the page! Sincerely, Karl Palsson
