any advice for installing bzip2 on readyNAS?

Im familiar with compiling and installing things on linux, but I prefer to avoid this on my ReadyNAS, partly because I dont have a good understanding of the distro

Id like to install bzip2 though, but apt-get isnt having it...

I did try apt-get install -f (with no packages), but it seems to have forced an update to ca-certificates, and in hindsight I think perhaps this was a mistake

Have the repo's for 4.2.19 being discontinued or am I facing a different problem?
Any advice please?

PS: Had to pastebin since forums dont allow posts with > 10 urls

4.2.19 is very old firmware. Perhaps update to 4.2.27 and try again?

Thanks, will try that

I didn't realise quite how behind I was on firmware updates
[Edit: Worked a treat after a 'apt-get update', thankyou]
