Description Paul Tomov 2017-07-08 01:50:31 UTC
During a make of a Raspbian image Buidroot reported error:

"Resolving downloads.uclibc-ng.org (downloads.uclibc-ng.org)... failed: Temporary failure in name resolution.
...
package/pkg-generic.mk:139: recipe for target '/home/ptomov/buildroot/output/build/uclibc-1.0.25/.stamp_downloaded' failed
..."
and exited with 2 errors.

I verified that I could sucesssfully run from command line:

$wget https://www.uclibc-ng.org/ 

Please advise me how to solve this problem.

Thanks,

  Paul

Buildroot is not responsible for this problem: it uses the wget available from your system, and relies on a working network connectivity. Here the "Temporary failure in name resolution" seems to indicate your DNS was not working.

Buidroot latest version 2017.05.1 was used from Ubuntu 16.4.2 VMWare Workstation Pro 12 image.
