Entware-ng for arm, mipsel ....

[zyxmon]

Is it possible to compile a simple C program without the Entware-ng dependency?

No. source /opt/bin/gcc_env.sh and compile as in wiki

source /opt/bin/gcc_env.sh
gcc $CFLAGS $LDFLAGS hello.c -o hello

 

[ASAT]

Thank you. I compiled my little C program and it runs fine.

If I needed to build a statically linked version of some program on the router, is this possible? I've cross-compiled Entware-ng on my laptop and it appears to have built all the static libraries (the ".a" files). Can these be used on the router with Entware-gcc to statically link the C runtime?

Just try and report here. Statical linking can be tricky with glibc. Try not to use ld, use gcc. ld does not know where to find some static libs.
Other problems can arise from running statically linked glibc binary in uclibc environment.

https://www.hqt.ro/how-to-install-new-generation-entware/

Thank you TeHashX

very nice tutorial for installing....thank you all for your help on this project....i will be very happy if @zyxmon, @ryzhov_al or any others can made similar program to install for blocking incoming connection for single IP or ranges of IP....i am trying with some tutorials here from forum but i never didn`t get working....

Entware-ng is synchronized with Openwrt. Changelog - https://github.com/Entware-ng/Entware-ng/wiki/Changelog#december-2015-first-decade

Patches from openembeded.org for glibc 2.22 applied (arm feed).
Uclibc-ng upgraded to 1.0.9 and patches from https://github.com/wl500g applyed (mipsel feed)
Entware system libraries will be automatically upgraded.

Two packages that were only in Entware-ng are now in Openwrt with slightly different names (pyasn1->python-pyasn1; zope.interface->zope-inteface) . If you have installed deluge (arm feed) it is better to run thees commands to upgrade.

opkg update
opkg remove --force-depends pyasn1
opkg remove --force-depends zope.interface
opkg upgrade

If you have not installed deluge, simply run

opkg update
opkg upgrade

opkg update
opkg delete - force-depends pyasn1
opkg delete - force-depends zope.interface
opkg upgrade

The syntax above did not work on my two Asus routers to delete the packages. The better syntax is:

opkg update
opkg remove --force-depends pyasn1
opkg remove --force-depends zope.interface
opkg upgrade

With kind regards
Joe

 

[zyxmon]

joegreat Thanks.

 

[kvic]

I took the plunge while bored with bunch of noise and only had access to a phone + SSH. The upgrade process was generally smooth. Configs for a few packages were overwritten. I thought I kept a log but seems I didn't...sorry.

Thanks for the nice work!

[matthew_eli]

Hi, is there a way to install Entware-NG environment on OpenWRT? It would be quite useful since not all the packages are manteined on OpenWRT (aMule for example)

 

[liquidwax]

I had entware-ng running on my AC-56u but recently been unable to run an opkg update.
The error returned as follow:

root@myAsus:/tmp/home/root# opkg update
Downloading http://pkg.entware.net/binaries/armv7/Packages.gz.
wget: can't connect to remote host (81.4.123.217): Connection timed out
Collected errors:
* opkg_download: Failed to download http://pkg.entware.net/binaries/armv7/Packages.gz, wget returned 1.

I've also tried editing opkg.conf to use the address provided in the OP but same error.

I've read somewhere that it could be caused by mis-configured routing table. The following are the output for netstat -rn, traceroute & ifconfig. Would need someone to advise on how to solve this.
By the way, I have debian wheezy installed and there's no problem running apt-get in debian.
I have a static ip

[kvic]

The entware server (or its ISP) might have issue with IPs originated from Asia. Don't know why...

People with a Europe or America IP seem doing fine.

 

[zyxmon]

There was ddos attack on the site with repos. We have blocked some Asian networks (/8).

 

[zyxmon]

BTW the 103.0.0.0/8 (Singapore) was not banned.

 

[ryzhov_al]

Just checked: OPKG works fine via HTTP proxy.

 

[liquidwax]

This has been solved already.
Please see my discussion with ryzhov_al at https://github.com/Entware-ng/Entware-ng/issues/133.

[zyxmon]

Entware-ng is synchronized with Openwrt. Binary repos were updated yesterday. One of the new packages is node. The name of the package is node or node_legacy - it depends on the feed/architecture.
Few remarks on node
1. You may need to add swap not to get OOM errors
2. Your HOME environment variable should point to usb storage. npm creates a huge cache in HOME dir.
3. You may need to run `npm config set registry http://registry.npmjs.org` before you use npm install
4. If you update npm with `npm -g install npm@latest` you may need to edit shebang in `/opt/lib/node_modules/npm/bin/npm-cli.js` (replace `/bin/usr/env node` with `/opt/bin/node`)

arm node_legacy package is already in binary repo. mipsel version will in repo soon, after more tests by ryzhov_al.

 

[ASAT]

Your HOME environment variable should point to usb storage.

I always forget, so I had this added to my profile.

/opt/etc/profile

#!/bin/sh
export HOME=/share/data
source /opt/bin/gcc_env.sh
