Experimental puppy 4 iso with glibc 2.11

#1 Post by darry1966 »

I have always wanted a puppy linux 4 iso with glibc 2.11 update as highlighted by Sickgut and others so.......................................

I have made an experimental iso of puppy 4.21 with glibc 2.11 using woofy it also has full SDL
libraries. It is buggy though the following needs correction once installed.

seamonkey is installed to /opt/seamonkey folder not /usr/lib correct desktop icon and use menu entry maker for jwm entry.

you need to delete xine plugin it causes seamonkey to crash. reinstall it I have provided it with iso.

re-install xmms which is provided.

I apologise for the beta quality but it happened twice when remastering anyway as I said experimental have fun with it. Xine works but requires ffmpeg update also provided.

By the way fullscreen fix is already installed and works. Flash10.183.90 installed. I also addressed desktop icons problem by including later rox-filer .pet

Basic outline of how I achieved this using Woofy.

I created a folder for all the pets to be installed glibc 2.11 and glibc-locales2.11, glib2.22p4pet, etc when it came to fixing locale issue I chose the edit file system option in woofy. I was able to place the modified profile in /etc with the following export LC_ALL=C at the end of the file this stops the annoying breakage of pmount then I let woofy do its thing following the appropriate guided remastering.

Thanks Dude I'm hopeless at getting the links to highlight like that and to others who have done so.
