(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Has anyone had any luck getting bleach to work on slacko 5.4 or later? Yes, python is installed, or so the PPM says. I'm sorry, I'm not a programmer so go easy on me please.

hi polekat,
try installing the devx.sfs for the slacko version you are using, as the devx contains python in slacko and older puppies.

you can get the slacko devx here in the puppy-5.3, puppy-5.4 & puppy-5.5 folders http://ftp.nluug.nl/ibiblio/distributions/puppylinux/

be sure to pick the one that matches your slacko version

Thank you 666philb for the quick reply. I'm sorry to say that did not work either. I believe I will replace slacko with another puppy distro. I have no trouble getting bleach to function in precise.

This made Bleachbit work in Slacko 5.5 PAE on my computer. Thank You!

P.S. It even also made PyPar2 work!

I don't have Wary 5.0 to test but bleachbit-1.0.pet does work in Wary 5.5 using Python-2.7.2-i486.pet from the Carolina repo.

Dell Inspiron 1300 - Puppy Precise 5.7.1 full installation on sda1 (only OS).

Installed latest Python then Bleachbit 0.9.6 - result;

Perfect operation.

Thanks. With the help of you guys got BB running on Slacko 5.6.0 full install

Hi Geoffrey,
Do you have pet for 64bit fatdog.
thanks.

thanks.

Sorry no I don't, the versions I build use Python 2.7, if fatdog has a Python 2.7 version it could possibly work, else you will need the devx and python installed and build it yourself, here's how I built it.

Thanks Geoffrey,
I will first try your pet with 32bit -lib .sfs loaded.
Then will try to build and report back.
Thanks for your help.

Just a warning for anybody running Bleachbit on a later Precise with Vicmz's Openbox/Lxpanel installed... it can break your system. Happened to me numerous times, about a third of the time after using it (hooray for backups!) - IIRC, seems to delete some Lxpanel .config files, and on next boot there's no menu and the system is locked into a high CPU loop, apparently trying to load the missing menu data (?).

Odd in that it doesn't happen all of the time, and when successful can be an excellent tool to clean things up before remastering. But first test the results thru a few boots, at least!!

I'm a Linux virgin so please be gentle.
This past week I installed the latest Slacko Puppy, version 5.7 on an older laptop. As far as the system goes, everything appears to work fine.
After installing what appears to be the latest BleachBit from this thread nothing happens when I try running the program.
Clicking on "Menu / Setup / Check dependencies installed pkg" I select "bleachbit-1.2-i486 DESCRIPTION: Free space and maintain privacy" which gives me "No missing shared libraries".
Does Linux have an equivalent Application Event Viewer that might shed some light on the problem?

UPDATE: Installing devx.sfs fixed the problem. BleachBit works flawlessly now.
