WireGuard Package install error (2.5.2 RC)

[Risfold]

I was attempting to install the package using the GUI on the 2.5.2 RC and ran into the below error. I am running this install virtually as a test environment. I was unable to find additional info or reports of this error on the forum or github. Has anyone else seen this as well? Is there any recommendation for a fix?

I am running 2.5.2.r.20210629.1350, attempting to install 0.1.3_1, however, I have seen this also on earlier versions of the RC and package as well.

My guess is that mkdir is not called with -p and therefore fails if the wg folders doesn't exists.

Possible patch that broke it

Either add

${MKDIR} ${STAGEDIR}${PREFIX}/www/wg

or change it

${MKDIR} -p ${STAGEDIR}${PREFIX}/www/wg/js

But that is just my guess

@kalledk Thanks for finding that! 1.1.1 was the earlier version I had issues with as well.

I found this code in the package developer's repository as well. I will submit a an issue there.

...Though... I just saw that 2.5.2 final was released today. I will upgrade that first and test.

Confirmed the issues is still present for me on 2.5.2 RELEASE.

@risfold looks like a newline issue. {MKDIR} macro is equivalent to mkdir -p already, so that isn't the issue. Will get it fixed in a snap

Interesting, thank you for looking into this.

I'm sure that you will! Thanks for all your work on the project!

@theonemcdonald I haven't see reports of others having this issue, especially now that the package is available in the RELEASE channel. Any idea why I would have this issue?

I haven't been able to troubleshoot much, luckily it seems like I have some sort of edge case.

Thanks to Tigger2014 on github, I dicovered some how a directory for the package was a file on my system. After renaming the file, I was able to successfully install the package. Issue resolve on my end. Thank you!
