hello
I used to compile openwrt on slackware and it works fine, but decided to migrate to debian (orange pi)

Using debian 8 jessie, I install all dependicies discribed in openwrt buildroot page,

copy same sources I used on slackware, make distlclean, menu config and start compiling and an error occurs:

as long as I see by some reason this package is trying to install in system /bin direcotry instead of openwrt build directory, any idea how to fix that?

I don't know what the problem is, but did you try to do a fresh checkout, copy over .config and see what happens?

That looks like you are trying to compile a very old DD version from 2015? Then you should also use all feeds like Luci from the same time. I guess that the po2lmo error is due to new Luci with old main sources.

Use up-to-date sources for everything.

how can I use old luci sources then? I just run ./feed update -a and install -a
guess gonna restore archive and try with less make clean, probabbly dirclean instead of distclean

If you want to compile an old source version, then you should git checkout Luci and packages feeds from the same date as the main source. That requires some git knowledge but can be done with git.

But that old source of yours has e.g. Musl clib 1.11 while it is now 1.15. and it is ancient also otherwise. You would likely be better off with updated main sources.

The discussion might have continued from here.
