How to fix the error "E: Unable to locate package wireless-tools" in termux

Question

The answer is:

We get this error when we try to install the wireless tools in termux using the below command

pkg install wireless-tools

This is because the termux-root-packages repository are not subscribed. To subscribe to the root repository, please use the below comand.

pkg install root-repo

Once the root repository is installed, you can install the wireless tools without an error.

pkg install wireless-tools

Hope this info helps.
