I need a free Database on my machine as do many who run servers etc .
Berkley DB is needed for a program I wish to run

Browsers in quickpet are outdated and not secure to use i suggest updating them,this ones work on precise pups

Slimboat: http://smokey01.com/OscarTalks/slimboat-1.1.53-i386.pet

Tor: http://smokey01.com/OscarTalks/tor-browser-4.0.3-x86.pet

Firefox: http://smokey01.com/OscarTalks/firefoxESR-31.4.0-x86.pet

Palemoon: http://smokey01.com/OscarTalks/palemoon-25.2.1-i686.pet

Qupzilla: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=799263#799263

Also i suggest adding standalone version of SMtube as alternative for gtk-youtube-viewer: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=93115

And if you want you can add bluetooth package for precise: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=95696

Maybe you can add critical security update pack,you can pack together bash,ssl,libgnutls,wget,libc6 and libc-bin into one pet package so new users don't need to search for it in forum

I love puppy "software center" keep it up and running Smile

I just downloaded from the first post and got "Slickpet" which looks completely different from the precise version I use and was expecting?

another useful program for electronics hobbyists is DIYLayoutCreator.
There is a Debian and Ubuntu package out now which might be easy to include . Its a good program to use to make electronics boards.

What I didn't understand is when I download the file in the first post I keep getting an old version 2 with none of the updates here mentioned and no update button even . What am I doing wrong Phil?

I am using Slacko 5.3.1 for this so I guess its downloading the slacko version which must be different to the Precise 5.7.1 even though both say " quickpet" on the desktop ? I am certainly confused by this .

Phil I have tried a number of times to get the librecad package to use . It comes down fine then it says get the QT4 package which I do and it downloads the QT4 .sfs file correctly .

When I start it I get this message in a console.
