Oops! Updated the command, try again now!

So you can install Jailed Theos using this method?

theos-jailed is meant for Mac, this is Linux based.

Make sure you are using sudo before the git command. Or just login as root

Thanks @DiDA

When using make package or make package install a ton of errors occur.

One of the first lines says:

bash: /opt/theos/toolchain/linux/swift/bin/swift: No such file or directory

I then look into that directory and find that there is no swift directory under /opt/theos/toolchain/linux

I tried to reinstall the toolchain but nothing changed. 

I also get an error:

Could not open tweak.xm

Not sure if this is because I edited the file via atom (a text editor) but running the same command with bash at the beginning returns some other weird stuff.

Have you run into this error before? If so, do you have a way around it?

Thanks!

You can ignore the swift error for now, not sure what's causing it and the toolchain from the official theos GitHub page doesn't seem to have it.

"Could not open" are be permission errors, that's why logging in and compiling as root is suggested. Dragging and dropping from Windows sometimes requires you to restart the terminal.

Re-download writeData. The one you have is not correct.
