Pet building system

[greengeek]

Yes, I'm happy with my build of Joe's v. 976, but it may be better to make your own jwm976 pet for Slacko by using the appropriate devx and amigo's src2pkg.

Hi Jasper -ahh yes, you are using precise, not slacko as I thought. I was a bit hasty in reading your post and misinterpreted the "5.6" - I will follow anikins directions and cook my own for Slacko 5.6. cheers!

Hi,
I'm posting in this topic since the discussion seems a bit out of place with folk discussing actually using woof-ce.

My expectation is that there should be a git repository where the source of utilities like freememapplet_tray could be stored.
After a pull-request against the source has been accepted, an appropriate "petbuilds" script could be run to produce a ".pet" for a puppy (or group of puppies).
This ".pet" would then become available via PPM for the puppy, and picked up by the next generation of the puppy using woof-ce.

Hi 01micko,

I don't get it.
I just forked and cloned the "petbuilds" repository to try the "freememapplet" pet.
I eventually worked out how to build it but the resulting ".pet" was missing a few files, i.e. the icon files and the ".pot".
Is this what it's supposed to do, or am I missing something?

Sorry gyro for missing this.

Basically yes, but it is a bug that the .pot file is missing. The system is designed for woof-CE and I don't want to overwrite icons that already exist.

Cheers.

What if they don't already exist?
These icons are fairly vital to freememapplet_tray, have you ever run it when they are not present?

But they do in any woof-CE puppy (almost from the start - 2 years ago).

Yes I know. If the icons are deleted from woof-CE then I'll change the build script.

gnome-mplayer.desktop

unfortunately since Slacko 6.3.0 Gnome-mplayer is located in the wrong category.

Gnome-mplayer is located in CATEGORY "Multimedia" SUB-CATEGORY "audiovideo"
but belongs actually in CATEGORY "Multimedia" SUB-CATEGORY "mediaplayer"

So the category of the menu where gnome-mplayer actually belongs is empty.
This has been already complained in Slacko 6.3.0
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=873753#873753

I changed the category in the *.desktop files from "audiovideo" to "X-Multimedia-mediaplayer"
and the icon path from png to the svg icon.

transmission.petbuild is using DESKTOP=transmission.desktop file

but should use instead DESKTOP=transmission-gtk.desktop

The currently used desktop file contains
Categories=Network;FileTransfer;P2P;GTK;

This leads to several places in menu

sylpheed.desktop file contains

Categories=GTK;Network;Email;News;

this leads to several places in menu

leafpad.desktop file contains:

Categories=Viewer;

very strange but this leads to several places in menu

However Leafpad is an editor not a viewer and Category should become corrected by

Categories=X-Document-edit

[01micko]

@norgo, thanks for reports and fixes

Should now be fixed at petbuilds (slacko_142 branch). Packages also uploaded to repo.

Gnome-mplayer : change done in my Slaxen 6.3.2 (experimental french version of Slacko 6.3.2). Efficient

Hi guys, dunno if I am allowed to do pull requests, so I'll post here for now..

This is a bog standard petbuild script, except the 4th option for build_configure(), which adds CLAGS to enable running FreeCiv as root..

(originally copied it from homebank.petbuild.. not sure if I need the 'DESKTOP=freeciv-gtk2.desktop' bit)

Advice/corrections appreciated.

I tried to build Torcs 1.3.7 on the same recent Slacko build, 32-bit ..

The Torcs petbuild script lists no dependencies, but I needed to build plib and freealut before Torcs would compile..

Maybe they should be listed as deps in the Torcs petbuild script?

Also, side note, when Torcs did not compile, petbuild still went ahead and built some (empty and broken) PET files.. I don't know much about how it all works, but maybe it's better to NOT package up a broken build?

But I got Freeciv and Torcs compiled easily enough.. Good stuff.
