Hallo L18L Über den Paket Manager klappt es. Vorher hatte ich das Paket direkt von Nlug heruntergeladen. Beim direkten Aufruf mit "petget langpack_de-20130310.pet" wird es nicht installiert. Das sollte doch eigentlich auch klappen? Firefox ist noch Englisch, wie krieg ich den am einfachste...

Hallo Leute Ich habe mir das petget langpack_de-20130310.pet aus dem Quirky no-arch Archiv heruntergeladen, um ein neu installiertes Slacko 5.5 in deutsch zu benutzen. petget meldet aber: "Error, langpack_de-20130310.pet failed to install". Es wird nichts installiert. Irgendein Teil des Pa...

@ pstef If it's for the coding style it shouldn't put you off participating the project. I have some good reasons to this kind of coding style which to explain would fill a book. But I also don't wan't to be forced to a certain style be it the Windows Hungarian notation or the GNU coding style and I...

As described two posts before the autoupdating categorisation requires to include all categories including "BuildingBlock" to the category file thus increasing it from now 86000 bytes to more than 200000 bytes. The implementation of this concept is a bit tricky and will require about two d...

2. find_cat must run for every conversion thus reducing speed. But the distributions are only updated once a while. This applies for the case that the info in puppy.ctg is older than the distribution converted, because ppkg has no information about the version of the package-info file. After furthe...

@ BarryK The category file structure is very simple as it only assigns package-names to their category. If all distribution categories once have been classified their source does not matter. The package-names are unique and hopefully have the same categorisation for each distribution. A universal pu...

@BarryK It should be taken care that the category system of Puppy Linux will not be garbled by the inclusion of foreign packages. At the moment the categorisation within the Pet Package Mangager mirrors the desktop menu categories. This system will be messed by the inclusion of foreign packages bec...

Preface This topic originally started in the Puppy Projects area: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=47763 But there were two topics mixed: 1. PPKG Puppy Linux Package Handler 2. PPKG C-Programming Contest So I have decided to split them: All questions about the PPKG Puppy Linux Packa...

Preface I started this topic originally because of performance problems in the Puppy Linux package management of Woof and the Pet Package Manager. But it mixed two topics: 1. PPKG Puppy Linux Package Handler 2. PPKG C-Programming Contest So I have decided to split them. If you are a skilled C progr...

@ Lobster the program runs but if I click on new or try to build a glade interface I get: If you write about the anjuta-sfs file, the errors seem to be due to some obsolete libraries. To fix the problem the whole sfs-file must be recompiled using the puppy-4.30 libraries. Instructions are found in m...

@ clarf It seems that you have not loaded devx430.sfs which contains make, automake, gdb, gcc, strip and other development tools needed by the IDE. On my rather pristine Puppy 4.30 I succeeded to compile a mini test project and to debug it.. I also succeeded in plugging-in Valgrind. But there might...

@ clarf and others interested in the Anjuta-IDE As you have read in this thread some times ago I had created an anjuta-2.4.2-sfs-file for Puppy-Linux 4.0. I was not able to share it with you because some libraries it uses, were newer than those in Puppy-Linux 4.0/4.1. So I did a hack in the init-sc...

I have continued testing Puppy Linux 4.2 on an AMD Duron 700 MHz 192 MB RAM. Until Puppy Linux 4.1.2 videos can be watched without problems in youtube. Starting with 4.2 only about 2 pictures per second are displayed. Is this due to the Seamonkey update to V. 1.1.15 or has there been a change with t...

@ ecomoney and others If you read my first post attentively many of them should annoy every kind of Puppy Linux users because they are not intuitive superfluous and misleading. They main goal of a good product is: Keep it as simple as possible but not more simple. Most of the new blings distract wih...

First of all, congratulations for the new Puppy version. The only problem I had was the printer configuration that I was able to fix with the help of forum member rcrsn51. So on my PC it runs without bigger problem. I am rather content like I used to be with the versions before. But a trend annoys m...

@ rcrsn51

Thanks a lot, the problem is solved.
In Puppy-Linux 4.2 pnm2ppa mustbe copied to:

/usr/bin/pnm2ppa

I use an HP710C Deskjet Printer connected via the parallel interface which prints fine in CUPS until Puppy 4.1.2 after I had copied the required files manually: 1. /etc/pnm2ppa.conf 2. /usr/local/bin/calibrate_ppa 3. /usr/local/bin/pnm2ppa 4. /usr/share/cups/model/HP-Deskjet-710C-pnm2ppa.ppd In Pupp...

@ Coilean Please do not use the old Anjuta 2.4.1 build procedure any more. It created a buggy Anjuta IDE. I have replaced it with the bug free Anjuta 2.4.2 build procedure. It will take you about 4 hours to build anjuta from the scratch. If you can't expect the SFS-File release you can download it f...

@ raffy In Puppy 400 init is a link to busybox in /initrd/pup_ro2/sbin. Does it really mount the sfs-files? The sfs-files really are mounted in reverse alphabetical order. To ensure anjuta to be mounted last I maybe should rename it aaaaaaaaanjuta-2.4.2-p400.sfs . :wink: But pup_xxx.sfs is always mo...

@ All Puppy Developers I have fixed the Anjuta bugs and created an Anjuta-SFS file. But there is still one problem that prevents it's release. In current Puppy 4.00 anjuta-2.4.2-p400.sfs is mounted before pup_400.sfs. Anjuta depends on a lot of library-versions from glib to gtk+ that have not made i...
