I just updated the desktop file fixing it so only one menu entry is made. Re-download the dotpet if you want the fix.

Well, I assume you've got something hosed up after installing/re-installing the dotpets. My dotpet installs fine for me (and works) in Puppy 4. I wouldn't mess with mine in puppy 3 though since it appears not to work.

yes, in Puppy 3 the Puppy4-pets generate a Glib-error.
So I compiled it in Puppy3.

Hello Everyone,
I compiled gpicview in Puppy 2.14 and while the app opened and displayed my pictures, it kept crashing for some unknown reason.

As this is a very nice small pic viewer, could someone please compile it for the Puppy 2 series so it doesn't crash. Even use an earlier version of gpicview if need be. I know alot of us Puppy user's who still use the 2 series would enjoy this little pic app also.

you can look in /root/.packages/gpicviewxxx.files, that contains a list of all.
Or rename the .pet to .pet.tgz , then you can view the content in xarchive.

gpicview is installed as /usr/bin/gpicview

Ok.

/root/.packages/

I have only two files related to gpicview: (not gpicviewxxx.files)

- gpicview-0.1.7.pet
- gpicview_NLS-0.1.7.pet

can/must I have handly delete?

in /usr/bin/ gpicview is not present :shock:

waiting your wih opinions, I have made a little experiment, trying install gpicview on a fresh puppy 3.01 frugal install, absolutly clean and untoched before and I have the same problem, after installing, typyng

[b[gpicview[/b] in a shell, not found is retourned, and looking in a package manager, these two files are not showed.

no, not delete, they just list what was installed.
You can view them with leafpad.
I have no idea why it does not install on your system.
So you could rename to .tgz, and extract with xarchive instead.

No Mark, I cant view with leafpad, in /root/.packages/, these two files are unpacked, with original .pet extension, it semms that unpacking is not working fot these files

renaming as tgz and unpacking seems works, but my question is now, other .pet package related to gpicview, gpicview_NLS-0.1.7.pet what is it?

ok, if they were not extracted, you can delete them.
NLS is national language support or so, these are translations to german and other non-english languages.

Hi John,

I've tried compiling on pup2.16, and it seems to compile fine. Opens up fine...but crashes as soon as mouse crosses the task-bar at the bottom. I did contact the developer & he suggested a couple of fixes, but they didn't work. Surprisingly, for someone developing apps with gtk, he expressed his dislike for gtk. Anyway, it's issues seem to be gtk version related, so not being clued up on gtk progging myself, I was thinking it might compile OK in pakt/dougal's pup214r, which I think has a newer version.

puppy is better linux ie ever seen

I am absolutely dummie in compiling or programming
but it's great!
You just see an interesting app somewhere and in some days you see it ready to use
the only thing is that it is not see in menu
maybe you need to correct gpicview.desktop file
i just crab it to rox desktop to launch
