Can't figure it out.

Just tried myself, same error.
I did fix it like this:

ssh into the pineapple as root
type "opkg update"

wait for it to finish

then type "opkg install wget"
wait for it to finish

cd into the directory you want to install wifite
then type "wget --no-check-certificate https://raw.githubusercontent.com/derv82/wifite/master/wifite.py"

after it's downloaded type "chmod 755 wifite.py"

Optionally:
link it to the /bin folder so you just have to type "wifite" to start the program
let's say you put wifite.py into the /etc folder

cd into /bin
type "ln -s /etc/wifite.py wifite"

while in the /bin folder type "chmod 755 wifite"
Now you should only have to type wifite, wherever you are and it'll start wifite right away :)

now is a good time to learn how to use opkg, I just did :)

Thanks for that. I actually just ended up copying the text to a file and placing that in /sd/usr/bin, which worked just fine.

hehe, that works too :)
