what is it?

a 5 minute script i made that will convert arch packages to .pet's

it is just dir2pet with some extra stuffz

any advice as to what else i could add? when i have some more time i hope to make this download from arch mirrors and convert automatically so look forward to that guys Smile

how to use

place arch2pet in the same directory as the .pkg.tar.xz

chmod +x arch2pet
arch2pet package.pkg.tar.xz name_of_pet

the name_of_pet is just whatever you want the .pet to be called

enjoy!

PS: tested by installing midnight commander and all its deps from the arch site; no problems Smile

Which version of Puppy did you use to test it?

arch2pet package.pkg.tar.xz name_of_pet

I'd just as soon put it in "/root/my-applications/bin/" if the script doesn't mind not being in the same directory as the packages.


Well, I'm a sucker for package conversion scripts and utilities, so I'll give it a try at some point. Thanks!
