Can make different flavours, but 7530AX comes up with an error

[fraternl]

I did a fresh git clone of freetz-ng and wanted to make firmwares for different FB's I have in possession.
I made 7490, 7590, 7590AX and 7530... but 7530AX comes with an error quite quickly.

remove .config

cd ~/freetz-ng
rm .config

select 7530 AX

freetz@debian11:~/freetz-ng$ make menuconfig

Can you check if it's reproducible?

The 7530ax is internally known as the 7539

I hoped other Kconfig files could shed some light (I have no idea yet, what it's doing), but the other fritzboxes do not have it. Only the 7539 (7530AX).

Is this AVM's responsibility?

[fda77]

I think you. Just do a new checkout

I think you. Just do a new checkout

I'll do what you propose....

But you're not very elaborate about what has changed since I did a fresh git clone https://github.com/Freetz-NG/freetz-ng.git yesterday.
I will find out when the machine has finished building....

[fraternl]

I did nothing else than select international & 7530AX as model and it indeed gave me a 7530AX image.

Did something change since yesterday or was there something wrong with my system?

[fda77]

I dont know what you did but you did it wrong, as it worked not longer
