Failed Workaround
You cannot successfully install and configure i2p in FreedomBox today by making the i2p packages available from the upstream source at geti2p.net. These are the geti2p.net installation instructions.
Steps
- configure apt using instructions from geti2p.net
- install i2p from plinth
Outcome
Plinth setup of i2p using geti2p.net packages fails with an error:
