Hi, I'm trying to compile OpenWRT for wrt3200acm on Archlinux. I cloned the code and entered the 19.07.1 version, following the guide [https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-developer/build-system/use-buildsystem#specify\_individual\_releasetag](https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-developer/build-system/use-buildsystem#specify_individual_releasetag) After updating the feeds and making the packages available (respectively with `./scripts/feeds update` -a and `./scripts/feeds install -a`) I ran make menuconfig. But I found myself with a series of warnings and an error that does not make me enter the configuration menu. ``` WARNING: Makefile 'package/utils/busybox/Makefile' has a dependency on 'libpam', which

I have tried several little things, but the problem has not been solved, which if it is not revealed will never be solved (or very difficult). For masters no problem, they are bleeding edge, a personal CI and everything works both in the compilation and in the router. Could it depend on Archlinux? A few days ago I compiled 19.07.1 without any problems. Now it has become impossible. ---

Hello, i did v19.07.1 for wrt3200acm on a debian with the new wifi firmware without problem. Maybe a archlinux problem like you think ---

Yes, I think it's so. But for master and latest wifi firmware no problem at all. ---

If you have been switching tags _master-\>19.x-\>master_, you might try [cleaning things up](https://forum.openwrt.org/t/updating-lede-source-recompiling/9646/6). ---

So we moved to mtd-utils 2.1.5 , where its fixed but we are seeing this build time failure.
