Well, I didn’t, but got the error, that hexdump couldn’t be found. After 
installing it, I got the error above, and sent the message.

Removing the file `net/wireless/shipped-certs.c`, and building again, 
fixed the problem. So I guess, the clean-up task(?) in the build script 
has a problem.

I do not think, it’s necessary, as I got an error, that the executable 
is not there. No idea, if it is documented somewhere though.


Kind regards,

Paul
