Hi Srdjan,

I have just published fixed builds, please check that
bird2=2.18.1-cznic.2 is now available for you.

That was an error on our side, which is now rectified.
BMP should now be available again in all our packages,
except for 2.17.x where we don't expect to enable it.

Thank you for your report and patience.  
Happy routing!  
Maria
