Running the update results in LOTS of changes to the system; I don't know if this is a wise thing to do or not.
I guess I will find out if anything that I use 'breaks,' but in general, it would be nice to know if running a systemwide update from Slackware 12 is a good idea or not..

..well, I broke something. X did not start and won't start on a reboot, am reinstalling the pup now...

I think they are left in /var/slapt-get. When you download a package there's a box you can check to download only and not install. Then the package will be left in /var/slapt-get for sure. Don't know if there's a way to install a local package with Gslapt, might have to use slapt-get from command line.if i've downloaded a package using gslapt. Then why can't i store it on another drive for example and reopen it locally to install it
Also, I just put a few Slackware mirrors in Gslapt. There's many more.
That would seem like a really bad idea, though I guess you found that out. Puppy is not Slackware 12.I guess I will find out if anything that I use 'breaks,' but in general, it would be nice to know if running a systemwide update from Slackware 12 is a good idea or not..

maybe could be a matter of symbolic links,,,
Code: Select all
# locate libvga.so
/usr/lib/libvga.so.1
/usr/lib/libvga.so.1.9.25
/usr/lib/libvga.so
# ls -hal /usr/lib/libvga.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 2007-11-15 14:32 /usr/lib/libvga.so -> libvga.so.1.9.25
# ls -hal /usr/lib/libvga.so.1

esmourguit,
The home page for Gslapt is here:
http://software.jaos.org/#slapt-get
Maybe you can find what you need there.

yesterday I have tried to install autotrace via gslapt, on pup save with 190 MB free but it says to me: no enough space available. possible? How big is autotrace plus dependencies?

Yes.i see that all tgz packages i installed are in /var/slapt-get
can i delete them?
Could be, when Puppy 3.0 came out, it had a lot in common with Slackware 12. It still does, but as packages get updated in slapt-get, Puppy 3 stays the same and the difference grows. Gslapt will show you which dependencies it's going to install, and I think you can choose to install them or not. Some dependencies should not be installed because Puppy is not Slackware and other things will break. For a while I was trying to exclude those packages and update this pet package, but the Slackware packages keep changing and there is not a direct correlation between Puppy packages and Slackware packages. So not having the time or compulsive desire, I gave up back in October. If anyone would like to take that over, go ahead, but it's not going to be easy.esterday I have tried to install autotrace via gslapt, on pup save with 190 MB free but it says to me: no enough space available. possible?
It's still useful, but you have to be careful what you install. If if GSlapt wants to install a new kernel or some basic library (glibc etc) don't do it. If a pet package is available, try it first. If your not sure, create a new pup_save file and test the package install in it first.

You say good Kirk. few hours ago I installed successfully (apparently) Autotrace, but, after installation, no application starts, I have rebooted and now X server does not start , so I cant't back in X. fortunately This was a pup_save file created for gslapt experiments, not for regular use

I don't know if you guys have seen my latest package for Gslapt, I removed the 4kb/second sources and Installed a faster one, plus installed undeb/unrpm which is ran via command line.

Hi magerlab!
Did you find Midori compiled for Slackware in some Slackware repository? Or did you compile that for Puppy yourself?
I've been interested in that browser for awhile now (one of the few I don't have) but all they have on the homepage is the source tarball and since I don't compile... and I've never seen it in any of the Slackware nor Debian repos that I'm connected to...
Any info that you may have magerlab would be greatly appreciated.
Amicalement,

hi mjg,
I have successfully installed gSlapt 0.3.19* (+ unDEB + unRPM) into puppy 4.0. I just placed these asked libraries to the ~/my-applications/lib/
I am now very happy with my Dingo 4 with a gSlapt!
gslapt here
http://dokupuppy.90megs.com/programs/gs ... .3.19a.pet
libgpg-error.so.0.2.1 is here (rename it to libgpg-error.so.0)
http://www.puppylinux.ca/ttuuxxx/Libs/l ... r.so.0.2.1
libtermcap.so.2.0.8 is here (again rename this to libtermcap.so.2)
http://www.puppylinux.ca/ttuuxxx/Libs/l ... p.so.2.0.8
Hope this will help you. Good luck.
