Jpilot Lucid 5.28

[paule]

Has anyone compiled Jpilot to work with Lucid 5.28. The available pets work with puppy 4.31 but not 5.28. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

cheers, Paul

Hi, Paul.

Judging from the screen shots at the Jpilot site, your Jpilot looks a lot like
osmo. Have you tried osmo? (osmo is included by default on every Puppy.)

BFN.

Thanks for the reply. I use jpilot on a number of computers and operating systems including some palm devices, so really need this. Unfortunately I don't have the skills to compile packages myself.

Thanks again for the reply.

Hi, Paul.

I see. So it's a transversal thing, eh? All your machines use jPilot.

Have you got the URL for the 4.31 pet? Not promising anything, but I'll
see what I can do. Maybe it's just a missing library.

Also, there's this page with all manner of pre-compiled packages for jPilot:
http://pkgs.org/search/jpilot I'd suggest the first (Alt Sysyphus)
or the last (Ubuntu Lucid) for a Puppy 5.2.8. The others are likely too
recent.

I'd try recompiling the latest version from source, but the download page
from jPilot itself seems down at the moment. Can you check if
http://www.jpilot.org/download.htm is active from where you
are? Thanks.

BFN.

Here is the URL for the jpilot.pet I have used before:

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=29857

I cannot access the download page for jpilot at this time either.

Really appreciate the help.

Hi.

I managed to put together a pet from the pre-compiled stuff I mentioned. I
got it working on Puppy Precise 5.4.3.

It needed the pisock and the bluetooth libs.

Give me a minute so I can upload it somewhere, and then you can test it
on your Lucid Pup.

Back in a minute.

Try this ? http://tinyurl.com/nrur96k
It's only jPilot version 0.99, though.

When I try to run it after installation I get this error message:

jpilot: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.15' not found (required by jpilot)

Hm...

Again, I'd accomodate you, but we have a couple of serious problems...

I don't have a Lucid Pup on this computer to compile jpilot on with an
original Glbc "less-than-2.15", plus...

I don't have a source file of jpilot to compile... Not funny.

Long story short: if we don't have a compilation of jpilot that's compatible
with your lupu's Glbc version, we're stumped. So...

The way to go for you to go from here, would be to install a more recent
Pup, such as Upup-raring-3.9.9.2, or a Puppy Precise 5.4.3 or later.

And then re-try the jpilot pet above... or the one below... because...

In the meantime I had assembled another pet of jpilot for version 1.18.1.

This newer pet has the locales separately, so if you're English-speaking,
you don't need to install the "NLS" pet included in the zip archive.

P.S. I just downloaded rerwin's lupusuper4-5.2.8.7 with kernel 3.9.9
(pretty much the same as the kernel used by pemasu for his
Upup-raring-3.9.9.2). I'll try the jpilot-1.81 package on that to see
what happens.

Really appreciate all the effort. Unfortunately 5.28 is the latest version I can run on this laptop. I downloaded the .zip file (just realized that was intended) and the 1.81 works just fine. Thanks very much and sorry for my misunderstanding.

Hi, Paul.

I'm surprised that v. 1.8.1 would work fine on your setup, but if you say so...

Actually, I installed rerwin's SuperLupu 5.2.8.7 mentioned above, and its
Glibc version has remained at 2.11, so it was a no go for my jPilot 1.8.1
package.

If I could access the source code for the most recent jPilot, I could try to
compile it over lupu 5.2.8, but the jpilot download site seems to be down
at the moment.

Maybe we retry later, ok?

@nilsonmarales: Thanks for the additional stuff.

BFN.

Musher0 and nilsonmarales, thank you both very much.

@nilson: What is the glibc version for your pupjibaro built with precise-retro,
please? Thanks in advance. I might try your jPilot version 1.8.2 on some of
my pups.

@paul: thanks for the discovery of this useful PIM.

BFN.
