[Bug]: Termux/Ubuntu commands on Android 15/OP13 broken
Problem description
I know this has been fixed before, but I'm experiencing the same issues as other people are facing, when installing Ubuntu via termux. The issue itself has not been fixed.
Steps to reproduce the behavior.
Start with a fresh install of Termux.
-Run update command for both proot and wget.
-The run the Linux distro command for install.
-After about 10 minutes of waiting. Install xfce desktop environment. Only to be met with no such file or package.
What is the expected behavior?
Unable to run desktop environment for either of the Linux distros.
System information
- Termux application version: 2025.01.18
- Android OS version: 15
- Device model: CPH2655
On first screenshot command failed because it was unable to download rootfs from canonical repo. Maybe check internet connection?
On second screenshot I have a simple question why use proot when you have root?

Why do you even sharing this issue when termux developers just said not to? You can clearly see the red warning text
On second screenshot I have a simple question why use proot when you have root?
because he still inside the proot or something. tahst why he has root? he need to exit and run ubuntu?
Please share the source code of script you're running called ubuntu.sh and start-ubuntu.sh . Because error is likely in the scripts
If you are using proot-distro, please don't run it in nested proot session. Otherwise you'll see a red message because nested proot is not supported.
Normally everything that you need to do is:
proot-distro install ubuntu - installation, one time usage only.
proot-distro login ubuntu - every time when you need to start Ubuntu shell.
Third party script issues should be reported to appropriate places.
Nothing to do with Termux application or Android OS upgrade.
