TWRP installation fails if recovery doesn't have awk #1

TWRP installation failed: awk is not available

How to fix it?

FriendlyNeighborhoodShane commented 4 years ago

Hello!

The installation script needs the awk tool for processing data. But for some reason rare recoveries don't include it (This is actually the 4th time I've seen this error in 2 years).

I fixed this problem by piggybacking on Magisk's busybox a while after the last release. So if you use Magisk, then I can make you a new release that will work after you flash Magisk (you can still force it to install to system though).

If you do not use Magisk, then sorry, I can't do much. You can ask your recovery dev to include awk, or you can use a different recovery.

Long-term, I'm just thinking I'll rewrite the script to remove the awk dependency. Rare as it may be, it's quite annoying.

Sooo I made a release (A couple hours ago) that should work if you have Magisk installed.

I'm afraid that's all I can do for now, until I write out the awk dependency.

Fully fixed with f3a1729558d7da5017e93a45568a95a7a30366fe

Feel free to selfbuild now, but I don't think I'll be making a release until there are updates.
