I was wondering about some post that I read today that would have me believe that you can install apps besides the common .pup like .deb .rpm .tar.gz .tar etc using some software tool like Alien, unrpmfull or undeb.

I would like to ask if this is true and what works best?

I also would like to try to get Wine and K3b working.

the best location to download is http://puppylinux.ca/bugs/
because I noticed that the link http://puppylinux.ca/bugs/wine-0.9.58.pet is dead which is the one on that site http://tmxxine.com/wik/wikka.php?wakka=Wine.

I got dependencies...

File /usr/lib/wine/wldap32.dll.so has these missing library files:

libldap_r-2.3.so.0

File /usr/lib/wine/gphoto2.ds.so has these missing library files:

libgphoto2.so.2 libgphoto2_port.so.0

File /usr/lib/wine/wineesd.drv.so has these missing library files:

libesd.so.0

I used to use a Distro that could fix that itself so I don't know where to get the files or anything.

I already have KDE fore the added tools but it is KDELite Razz

.

I would like to know how to use unrpmfull and undeb.

Thanks in advanced and thanks fore WinePup.

O and I guess I cant have click able links yet. (Thanks fixed)

This should work, as a direct link, so don't click it if you don't want to start a download.

Thanks see above on links.

I got the right one and was only noting that its better to look in http://puppylinux.ca/bugs/ then use the link on that old site but yes http://puppylinux.ca/bugs/wine-0.9.60.pet works fore now...

I found the http://www.puppylinux.ca/ttuuxxx/index.php?dir=Libs%2F
thing now I would like to know do I save the needed lib to the perspective folder mentioned in the list of dependencies something like /usr/lib/wine?

I haven't messed with much yet so be kind if I sound a bit new/dumb.

k3b works good in Puppy 4.00
1. Install cdrdao
2. Install k3b version 1-.0.4
3. Supply some libs (In rxvt use command k3b to check lib)
4. Now we can use k3b in Puppy 4.00
Please give your comments. Thanks

bash: syntax error near unexpected token `in'

??I did what you asked??

I know I probably typed something incorrectly.

I will probably get it right.

Any idea?

Assuming you've downloaded libldap_r-2.3.so.0.2.15 & saved it to /usr/lib, then just copy & paste the following, into a console terminal, by dragging your mouse over it, right-click & select Copy, then paste by either pressing both mouse buttons, or via Shift + insert keys:

ln -s /usr/lib/libldap_r-2.3.so.0.2.15 /usr/lib/libldap_r-2.3.so.0

I think you may have entered in instead of ln
