WSL Ubuntu 20.04 addon ends with exit code not zero

[scurvysourdebugger]

The installer always seems to fail at this step:
Running: remnux-perl-packages
Update returned exit code not zero
Error: Update returned exit code not zero
at ChildProcess. (/snapshot/remnux-cli/remnux-cli.js:571:23)
at ChildProcess.emit (events.js:315:20)
at maybeClose (internal/child_process.js:1021:16)
at Process.ChildProcess._handle.onexit (internal/child_process.js:286:5)

Sometimes problems occur due to network or server issues when
downloading packages, in which case retrying your operation
a bit later might lead to good results.

To determine the nature of the issue, please review the
saltstack.log file under /var/cache/remnux/cli in the
subdirectory that matches the REMnux version you're installing.
Search for the log file for "result: false" messages and look at
the surrounding lines to diagnose the issue.

saltstack.log

It's a newly installed and updated Ubuntu 20.04 running in WSL with windows 11
Any ideas?

@scurvysourdebugger Can you send us your saltstack.log file so we can review, and can you provide the command you used to initiate the installation?

Cheers!

I used sudo remnux install --mode=addon to run the installer.
I can see the link to the saltstack log got kinda hidden by the github link so here it is again:
saltstack.log

Hi @scurvysourdebugger, It looks like the biggest issue in your case is due to a recent drop of Python 2 support for pyftpdlib, which is a requirement for the current version of flare-fakenet-ng (which is not yet fully ported to Python 3).
The second issue, malchive, will be resolved by the recently submitted PR, as they've changed dependencies for Python 3 to 3.11, which is not "available" in Ubuntu Focal.

And the third error, a "venv" configuration error, is also going to be resolved by the recently submitted PR.

I will look at the fakenet issue, and submit a PR to temporarily remove it until the Python 3 compatible version is fully released.

Thanks a lot for looking into it. I tried again but it still fails at the same point. Is there anything I should change with regards to python, or try it from a completely fresh ubuntu install?
I'll add the new saltstack log here just in case:
saltstack.log

Hi @scurvysourdebugger , it looks like your install had two issues, one of which was just fixed with the removal of fakenet. The other is an issue during the installation of the dissect package, which I'm working on fixing now. I'll let you know once the PR is finished and merged. Cheers!
