How to install Flexget on Asuswrt-Merlin Entware

[zilexa]

I keep trying, but keep failing.
I started following the official Flexget instructions for Openwrt (I have Asuswrt-Merlin on a AC56u RT router with a 4GB usb drive connected to the USB2 port, I have a 2TB disk in my network that I plan to use to download stuff to):
http://flexget.com/wiki/InstallWizard/OpenWrt

But the first command: "opkg install python python-sqlite3 pyyaml" failed due to "Unknown package 'pyyaml'." also the next command, 'python-sqlite' is an unknown package.

So I used opkg list | grep Python to find the names of the packages and I managed to install pyyaml and sqlite3.

Eventually "distribute" installed successfully, but when I try to install PIP it fails again:

How can I install Flexget correctly?

I struggled with the same issue - that being that the following certificate needs to be in /rom/ca-bundle.crt
I made a copy of ca-bundle.crt and saved it as /opt/etc/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt

I then appended the following to that file:

DigiCert High Assurance EV Root CA

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

Then I exported the following environment variable:

export SSL_CERT_FILE=/opt/etc/ssl/certs/ca-bundle.crt

I might have just been able to download the certificate and set the SSL_CERT_DIR environment variable instead but I didn't try that.

Then flexget downloaded and installed OK however it reported a missing dependency.

I ran:

 pip install functools32
