Compile not cloning Recipes repository (possible WiFi service incompatibility?)

aleksrutins commented 4 years ago

I am on a freshly-installed GoboLinux system, and I have never used GoboLinux before.

When I run, sudo Compile LXDM, it responds with this:

Password: 
Compile: Initializing recipes repository
Cloning into '/Data/Compile/Recipes'...
[...hangs for several minutes...]
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/gobolinux/Recipes.git/': getaddrinfo() thread failed to start

fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
Compile: Could not find a recipe for LXDM

When I sudo git clone the Recipes repository by hand, it simply says Cloning into 'Recipes'... and hangs. Even when I git clone as a regular user into my home directory, it hangs. I have also tried git clone with a smaller repository, and that hangs as well. I have found that when I curl anything, that hangs too. Perhaps this is an incompatibility with the WiFi service? Thank you in advance!

I've solved it temporarily by downloading the ZIP from GitHub and unzipping it to /Data/Compile/Recipes, but it spits out errors about 'not a git repository' and such.

That's a known issue with this release. Please have a look at https://github.com/gobolinux/Documentation/wiki/GoboLinux-017-Known-Issues-and-Fixes and let us know if the ifconfig instructions fix it.

Thanks! That's what was causing it.
