Can't use apt-get

[Kronos256]

I have some problems when I try installing libgles-dev, or anything for that matter. Maybe I am doing something wrong since I am new to Termux.

I always get this error:

Reading package lists... Error!
E: Unable to determine file size for fd 6 - fstat (1: Operation not permitted)
E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened.

Here is what I get:

~ $ hippo root@localhost:~# apt-get install libgles-dev Reading package lists... Error! E: Unable to determine file size for fd 6 - fstat (1: Operation not permitted) E: The package lists or status file could not be parsed or opened. root@localhost:~# apt-get autoremove Reading package lists...

Try to do
apt clean

[ghost]

can you try apt update / apt-get update, seems problem is while writing to /tmp. removing and recreating should work

[SaicharanKandukuri]

does apt clean worked

[SaicharanKandukuri]

can you share output of termux-info

I think because apt does not has any permission or other thing like tar and tigervnc, i have that issue to.

[Wtab]

I think this will help
sudo chmod 777 -R /

[Kronos256]

I think this will help
sudo chmod 777 -R /

I already tried that but it didn't do anything,

[Kronos256]

apt clean ; apt update ; pkg update they didn't help on armhf

[SaicharanKandukuri]

i look into this problem

[Wtab]

Maybe proot can't sanitize the binding /proc/self/fd/0

[SaicharanKandukuri]

i made some 1st tests of armhf build
i didn't got any fd error😕

Bruh

@Randomae
it's normal do nano /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/etc/proot-distro/hippo.sh
and remove # in front of those lines

[Allan-sketch]

Bro try :
$pkg install nano
$apt edit-sources main,root,X11,game,science

[SaicharanKandukuri]

@Randomae can you do it like
in termux install strace

apt install strace

in hippo

touch trace.txt
strace -o trace.txt apt update

and share trace.txt file here or discord
this provides extra info on what really happening

Look's like we need to accept the fact that termux and proot are still in active development!
and the issue in termux/proot is stale. so ubuntu 20 will be active for armhf until I get a fix
