Have you set up another website? I would like to try out Pussy but there doesn't seem to be anywhere to find it

Hi, RickGT351.
Unfortunately the author Sickgut is no longer active in the forum and the site is closed.
Here is a backup site with most of his work Squeeze version.
https://ia601008.us.archive.org/25/item ... nux_pussy/
And here:

password: download
There are readme text for every iso file and soon I will add md5sum files also.
Any suggestions for mirror sites with permanent file storage are welcome.

Cheers

Edit: Some of the files uploaded by Aarf:
http://puppylinuxstuff.meownplanet.net/aarf/pussy/

Edit2: Nice surprise - the torrent file from here is still active:
https://archive.org/details/Puppy_Linux_pussy
It contains server, base and extra iso version.

And direct download for all files:

Sad. This is exactly what I've been looking for. Just got done pulling my last hair out trying to get ssh to work in tahrpup from installing things in the package mismanager. Kidding. It actually does a good job, but there are some extremely annoying issues with it. Uninstalling things can be a nightmare and 3/4.

Anyway, this is a great idea. Hope it comes back to life. I would LOVE 1000x better package management.
