Termux-packages: wget ssl missing

[ghost]

Cant download from https with wget on aarch64. Seems to be its compiled with ssl

[Grimler91]

Have you install wget or are you using the busybox version? pkg install wget

[ghost]

I did installed it. Had to restart termux. Now its working. Thaks

[MaxGhenis]

How do you restart termux? I tried reset after pkg install wget, but still get the same error:

wget https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh

wget: not an http or ftp url: https://repo.continuum.io/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh

Typing wget alone starts with BusyBox v1.27.2 so I think I do need to restart, but don't see how from the docs.

In any case might be worth a separate issue to have a more informative error message from BusyBox's wget?

How do you restart termux?

Rebooting my device did the trick, though still curious.

Or just restart the session/shell. Of course you don't need to reboot your device.

[MaxGhenis]

Is there a command to restart the session/shell? I'm using termux from ChromeOS, and closing and reopening the tab didn't do the trick.

[tomty89]

Just like what you do on PC. Ctrl+D, exit, logout. Long press on the Termux screen there will be MORE... -> Kill process. Swipe down from the top, there's an exit button on Termux's bar, which kills all sessions. And obviously you can even go to Android apps' setting and force stop Termux.

And you can swipe from the left to create and switch between up to 8 sessions (have to admit that I don't know if there's better way to do that when you are on mouse and/or keyboard).
