Hello.
Just recently added first eXR (asr9901) router to my network. Router came with 6.6.2, and I upgraded it to 6.6.3 before installation on site.
Most routers in my network is asr9001 with cXR 6.4.2 and I have a quite good experience with them but eXR is completely new thing.
Now there is a SP1 available for 6.6.3 and because one of my two asr9901 is not in production yet, I rushed to install a SP1 before putting it to production. Everything was done according to config guide and from experience with 9001 - adding a SP, testing it, and finally activating it. Unfortenately it just not working with eXR :(
Everything went ok until activating phase, then I got a message:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:asr9901#install activate id 20 synchronous

I do not have all feature packages on any of my ASRs, only ones that I need. With cXR (asr9001) there also was complaints that some packages can not be activated during SP activation, but everything worked. In case of eXR (asr9901) it doesn't.
What is wrong with it? Do I need all feature packages installed on eXR just to have a chance to flawlesly apply a service pack to 6.6.3?
There is a list with active packages currently on router:

Yes, bng package is not installed but there is also other packages that are not installed, but error is only for bng package. What is a correct way to apply a SP in my situation?
