Woof, the puppy builder: where can I download it from

#1 Post by steve_s »

Ok, if I can't figure that out, then maybe I shouldn't be using it, yeah, I know... 8)

I downloaded the bones pet, then ran it, then ran:

Code: Select all

#mkdir woof-tree
#cd woof-tree/
#bones setup
..and the very second thing that the gui calls for is the download page/location for woof.

? Where is that?

Looked on the woof page, it says to use bones and put that information in there. I would if I knew the information. Then look on the bones page, it directs me to the woof page; ugh.

So, where can I download the latest woof from? :wink:

I hit the same circular referencing before deciding to follow this post
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 022#347022

However I have not followed its advice yet - let us know if it works
I notice it says Woof 4.3 - is that the latest?

I am updating the Woof page, is this better:
To download ("checkout") the latest Woof is explained in the Bones web page, but repeating here:

> mkdir woof-tree
> cd woof-tree
> bones setup
You you will be asked to enter a couple of parameters:
Username: mrperson (any name you want to give yourself)
Download URL: http://bkhome.org/bones/woof/
> bones download

...you can repeat that last step whenever you want to update to the most recent Woof.

:) Oh, sure! Of course...I go to the ibiblio site to download the devx for a 4.3.1 to install to get this going...sure enough, there's a woof right there in front of me! I know that isn't exactly the way that the bones gui is supposed to run, but I could have just gotten that download at the time...ugh... 8)
