"pkg install mosquitto" on Android gives error since trying to clone packages from bintray (down for maintenance)


I am trying to install the Mosquitto on android device: I have installed termux, also trying to install Mosquitto through termux (following this instruction).

However, the installation tries to access the bintray website to clone required packages. Bintray is currently under maintenance for migration till 4th of July. Wonder to ask if there is any work around or any mirror repository I can use? or is there any instruction to follow and install the Mosquitto broker executable file for Android platform?

Error message I observe is as below:

Checking availability of current mirror: ok

Solution

  • Make sure to install Termux from Droid not google play store, as recommended in this wiki page
