How can I install Okular in any Puppy Linux version?

#1 Post by Volodya »

Hello everybody.

Basically this is what I'm looking for. I want to install the latest Okular version in any Puppy (I don't care as long as it works).

Thank you for your help in advance.

You can try with KDpup-484, DPup-484 or DPup-485.
With KDpup many of the latest squeezy debian packages work.

Link to latest Okular debian packages:

There is also a possibility to make portable Okular (from Debian live CD) and test if it works with puppy. Read here how:

Hi saintless, thanks for trying to help me.

I ran that Puppy you mentioned, but unfortunately it has a very outdated KDE version, and this is a problem because I need the latest Okular version. Older versions have a un-removable bar at the bottom that takes a lot of space of my netbook's small screen.

Isn't there any other alternative?

thanks! :wink:
