Cannot install perl from repos [resolved]
-
I can't seem to install perl through the onion packages repo or the lede repo. I receive these error messages:
Collected errors:
- opkg_download: Failed to download http://downloads.lede-project.org/snapshots/packages/mipsel_24kc/packages/perl_5.22.1-4_mipsel_24kc.ipk, wget returned 3.
- opkg_install_pkg: Failed to download perl. Perhaps you need to run 'opkg update'?
- opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package perl.
I also tried to build perl from source, but it depends on the 'comm' utility in gnu-coreutils, and I can't build coreutils without perl, so catch22!

Have you installed other packages without trouble?
-
Yes, haven't had problems are you able to install perl? I see the wget exit code 3 means "file I/O error".

I just installed it without any issues. Back when I got my omega, something wasn't configured right. Whenever I used opkg update it kept saying that there were invalid signatures and certain things wouldn't install. So I factory reset my Omega and started over. Everything worked fine after that. You might want to update your firmware first, I am currently on omega2p-v0.1.8-b145.bin
To update the firmware follow these instructions:
cd /tmp
wget http://repo.onion.io/omega2/images/omega2p-v0.1.8-b145.bin --------For omega2plus
wget http://repo.onion.io/omega2/images/omega2-v0.1.8-b145.bin --------For omega2
sysupgrade omega2p-v0.1.8-b145.bin --------For omega2plus
sysupgrade omega2-v0.1.8-b145.bin --------For omega2

Turns out /tmp wall full, prohibiting me from pulling the packages down.
