OK, and you checked if the package manager does install required dependencies with sh > busybox-pup ?

Not yet @fred because I have a very limited bandwidth to do that but you can try it. by symlinking sh to busybox-pup.

Ah, didn't notice earlier that busybox-pup was already in /bin
Yes, when linking sh to busybox-pup the package manager works fine checking for and installing dependencies.

Another thing: (but maybe I missed something earlier discussed, in that case, just ignore).
Problems with snapmergepuppy (and therefore changes not saved for me).

Code: Select all

bash-4.3# snapmergepuppy
readlink: invalid option -- 'm'

Command line: readlink -n -m /initrd/pup_ro1 

BusyBox v1.27.2 (2018-03-05 16:01:00 CET) multi-call binary.

Usage: readlink [-fnv] FILE

Display the value of a symlink

	-f	Canonicalize by following all symlinks
	-n	Don't add newline
	-v	Verbose
Merging /initrd/pup_rw onto ...
touch: setting times of '/etc/.wh.mtab': Operation not permitted
df-FULL: cannot read table of mounted file systems: No such file or directory
ash: -gt: argument expected

@fred it looks like that I will create another symlink of readlink to busybox-pup.

I noticed that 'gxmessage' is installed, however not 'xmessage'

With many puppies the situation is reversed.

'xmessage ' is installed because it is smaller.

Read this

I made a package to find md5sum of a file .
It works for root user only apparently.

That's okay just su or sudo to root and start pcmannfm from the terminal.

Xmessage

Here is a copy of xmessage from StretchPup which goes in /usr/local/bin with a shortcut in /usr/bin for anyone who wants it. Rename the .gz

In StretchPup both gxmessage and xmessage are installed.

Hi Mistfire,

For next release could xmessage be a default in the install and perhaps Puppy linux firewall with iptables?

I also suggest including gtkdialog, roxfiller, pygtk mksquashfs and liblz bydefault.

For the rest of python there is tinypy in the package manager and the full python can be included as part of devX.

@s243a

-rox-filer: I'm afraid not because I prefer pcmanfm also rox-filer is big (around 3Mb)

-pygtk: I'm afraid not too because It was big.

-mksquashfs: Yes, it is now included

-xmessage: I still prefer gxmessage because of neat design. If its deps was worst maybe switch to xdialog may help.

@darry there is also change_kernel included in tazpup.

On my latest experiment mksquashfs is now added. Also I made fixes on remasterpup2 script. Tazpup can now remaster. Readline was replaced with full one.

Just copy your iptables file over from another puppy...and by that I mean copy over /etc/rc.d/rc.local

and then run the script. I believe that the standard puppy puts the iptable statements to configure the firewall in rc.local.

Of course TazPup will need IPTables. I haven't checked to see if it I has it but my guess is it would because it is pretty standard networking stuff.

I recommend learning how to configure the firewall with iptables commands, because you can do much more with it then you can do with the GUI interface.

I have had to install iptables each install. Not installed by default.

Oh, okay. I think it should be installed by default but it's up to mistfire.

What packages do you want installed by default that don't come standard. Maybe I can write a script for your to install them.

PS sort /var/lib/tazpkg/installed/ by date modified to see the most recent packages that you installed, You can highlight several at once with the shift key, right click and then select copy the paths.
