Help request related to crux-3.4 and mate

Hi all, I have an absolutely perfect crux-3.4-rc2 MATE installation in my first PC. Today I'm trying a new installation in a similar PC using crux-3.4.iso file. No problem at all while installing the OS, but when I try to install MATE from mhoush mate collection I find a difficult (for me!) problem: only the first two packages are installed, and I'm stopped at the third, p5-xml-simple-2.22-1, getting this message: WARNING: Signature not found, creating new. /usr/bin/pkgmk: line 377: '.signature.tmp': Permission denied rm: cannot remove '.signature.tmp': No such file or directory ERROR: Creating signature failed If I try to install through "pkgmk -d -i -if", I get the message: ERROR: Footprint mismatch found: MISSING root/rootᅵ usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.24/ .... NEWᅵᅵᅵᅵᅵᅵ root/root usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.26/ .... Problem: I tried to downgrade perl to 5.24.4, but it was impossible. Someone can help me? Many advanced thanks. Giorgio Cittadini

seems like the repo is not signed. you can pass -is to ignore that.
If I try to install through "pkgmk -d -i -if", I get the message:
ERROR: Footprint mismatch found: MISSING root/rootᅵ usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.24/ .... NEWᅵᅵᅵᅵᅵᅵ root/root usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.26/ ....
we switched from perl 5.24 to 5.26 in 3.4. This means all perl ports will need to have their footprints updated. Passing -if should ignore the footprint. You probably never actually passed -if during the actual build.
Problem: I tried to downgrade perl to 5.24.4, but it was impossible.
Don't do that :-)
