But when I try the ./scripts/feeds update -a step I get:
Can't locate metadata.pm in @INC (you may need to install the metadata module) (@INC entries checked: /home/d/projects/openwrt/openwrt/scripts /usr/local/lib64/perl5/5.40 /usr/local/share/perl5/5.40 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5) at /home/d/projects/openwrt/openwrt/scripts/feeds line 6.

AFAICT I should have the perl module available:
$ dnf list installed *perl*metadata*

So any idea how to get unstuck here would be much appreciated.
Hi there, I just tried myself today... only to end up asking my microsoft pc asking me for my bitlocker key and not booting anymore. Fortunately I could recover it... I did not even know this is automatically on these days. I am done for today and will try again next days on some older pc's of me.
Anyway, did you install all packages mentioned on this page? As you are running fedora (?) you are lucky, the column is pretty complete.
Still, I had everything installed except for ncurses dev libraries which I didn't expect to make a difference - and didn't
installing `ncurses` dev libraries
$ sudo dnf install bash-completion bzip2 file gcc gcc-c++ git-core make ncurses-devel patch \
rsync tar unzip wget which diffutils python3 perl-base \
perl-Data-Dumper perl-File-Compare perl-File-Copy perl-FindBin \
perl-IPC-Cmd perl-JSON-PP perl-lib perl-Thread-Queue perl-Time-Piece
