1. Pwidgets doesn't work properly on Lucid puppy 007. It needs libidn.so.11 which links to libidn.so.11.5.34.

Works fine after these are placed in lib. 01micko has posted a link.

Nice job! A few notes only:

"Announcement and release notes for 0.0.7" - the announcement text forgotten from /usr/share/doc/release-0.0.7.htm file.

Seamonkey v1.1.18 does not run, in spite of seamonkey-1.1.18 folder contains 23 MB data. It could be executed in 006, out-of the box.

Puppy browser is already included in the sfs, available when clicking on Help icon. It should also be the "defaultbrowser" until running Quickpackage.

Abiword 2.8.2 in 007 does not support accented letters when saved as docx. However, they are OK in all the rest formats (doc, abw, rtf, pdf, ps, etc). UTF and hu_HU set. This problem appears in ttuuxxx's 4.3.2-V3, too.

Latest Flash available here (thanks to Coolpup for reminding me)
http://puppylinux.org/wikka/FlashPlayer
works in Lucid. Better? Maybe a little but it is a Flash problem
- not Puppy or Browser - It is Adobe and Flash proprietary code Rolling Eyes

I noticed that when right clicking on a file and selecting properties, after closing the popup box, the file is still selected. This is the "rox filer focus bug". The conditional put in /etc/profile doesn't seem to work properly with the current /root/.packages/woof-installed-packages and might need some tweeking. I don't know if it is functional in q19 or not, but the gtk there is 2.16 so it would't matter there yet.

this is from /etc/profile:

upnorth, we had a good fix from aarf, it looks like I left it out, I must have rebuilt that package and forgotten. Your fix is shorter though. Thanks.,

For the rox focus bug:

This works too and is probably better. The rox wrapper script is:

/usr/local/bin/rox

I am not able to install ( Full Hard Disk) Lucid Puppy 008 in machine. While installing Lucid Puppy 008, it reports no media to install . I also tried to mount hard disk through pmount. However, this also fails as hard disk is not detected.

Please note that Both Quirky 10 & 18 is working in Full Hard Disk installation ( Grub boot loader) . Kindly look into this.
