Building with gptfdisk fails in installation step with find: ‘./packages/target-mips_gcc-5.5.0_uClibc-1.0.14-nptl_kernel-3.10/gptfdisk-d7f3d306b083123bcc6f5941efade586/’: No such file or directory.

When I want to build "Freetz-NG" with gptfdisk, build fails while installing packages with find: ‘./packages/target-mips_gcc-5.5.0_uClibc-1.0.14-nptl_kernel-3.10/gptfdisk-d7f3d306b083123bcc6f5941efade586/’: No such file or directory:

grep GPTFDISK .config:

FREETZ_PACKAGE_GPTFDISK=y

Disabling FREETZ_PACKAGE_GPTFDISK makes build of "Freetz-NG" continuing.

I am aware that gptfdisk is in the "Unstable"-menu and thus not expected to work, I want to report it anyway in case you might be interested in feedback of actual errors.

• Freetz-NG version: Freetz-NG 23565M-f2a453e28 master 2024-04-18,
• Attached: .config.

what did you do to investigate?

what did you do to investigate?

What do you mean? Nothing. I just run "Freetz-NG"'s build system and reported it here in case anyone is interested.

I know, but it is beyond my capabilities to open a pull request.

And I do not see it as "I want my problem be fixed", but as "I encountered an issue and I want let you know about it, maybe you find it valuable".
If you do not want to be informed about issues -- well, OK then.

I happily can live without those packages on my router.
