Running against a situation here, for which I have solutions in mind, but for some reason or another they don't really strike me as "good" solutions.
I am making a customized for myself (eg with postgreSQL support) php package. Configure and make run fine; but upon make install the make tries to access httpd.conf in the $DESTDIR/etc/httpd
My first thought is: prior to 'make install' copy the file from /etc/httpd to the target dir;
I have spent hours installing different packages and have everything pretty much how I want them. Is there a way to get a list of all the packages and/or save it in a way that should I need to reinstall, I do not miss anything

View 5 Replies View RelatedFor a project I have had to migrate from FreeBSD to Linux and I have decided to choose Debian because I have had good experiences with it.However, since my main development machines are completely offline I have run into a little bit of trouble.Is there a way to specify a .deb package and get a tool to recursively list (and fetch) all dependency packages that are not included in the base install and put them in a folder?
I do not like to be tied to the internet (Never a good idea) and so this would save me a heap of trouble (and journeys to an online PC)Once I have these folders containing packages, then I can simple cd into one of them, dpkg -i the relevent .deb and not have to rely on the DVDs or worry about connecting to an online repositoryLife will be good!Suffice to say FreeBSD can do this well so I strongly believe that Debian will be able to aswell but since it is not normally done, I havn't found much on google about it
I am able to create a solaris package and hpux package from directory structure in a specific format rather than spec file but the same i can not do on linux . is there any way to do that . basically i can create the solaris package using command pkgtrans -s "source loc" "package location" all .we do not need any specfile here rather we create the package from the filesystem objects in a proper directory structures. again pkgadd -d option will install the datastream from a package but i did not find the same on linux.
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe are pleased to present one of our new creations: pkgbuild, a tool written in standard C++, using libCURL, ZLib, BZip2 and libLZMA (part of XZ). It is a modern Slackware packages builder, network-transparent, multi-architecture, designed to greatly simplify the creation of a package, automatically executing the required post processing.
What does it do? Recognize and build packages for the following architectures: i386, i486, i586, i686, x86_64, IA64, IA32e, s390, s390x, sparc and sparc64.

I am very happy to announce that today I succeeded to install full Slackware ARM on the pandaboard: URL...I did the following:
* sd with 2 partitions, one (vfat) for bootloaders (MLO, u-boot.bin) and uImage and the other one (ext2) for minirootfs
* copy xloader (MLO), uboot and uImage from Angstrom distro on the first partition
* copy Slackware ARM minirootfs on the second partition with Angstrom modules in the usual path (/lib/modules/...)
* boot in ARMedslack
* install all the others packages via NFS
I had to make some changes to configuration files as indicated here:URL...The next step is to build a kernel and modules for omap4 by myself and use them instead of the Angstrom ones.One question: is there any kind of package manager, such as slap-get, sbopkg, etc. for Slackware ARM? If not, can I use the SlackBuilds from slackbuilds.org? How to modify them?
Anybody know of a slackware package for the Iced Tea Java thing? I have the rpm (I have fedora anyhow) but I would like a slackpkg to cstick in here.

I'll be away from home for the following weeks (and perhaps months). I want to use the Internet with confidence, so I have setup an old computer with SSH and I'll be tunneling to that (from a netbook).I haven't remote-managed a computer for such a long time and I want to be sure that even if I do a mistake remotely, I can bring the computer back to a good known state.The home computer will reside inside my aunt's house and she knows very few about computers.
I've been thinking about burning a bootable DVD containing a tarball of a freshly configured Slackware. If I mess up, I can phone my aunt and tell her to simply put the DVD inside the drive and press ctrl-alt-del. The DVD boots, un-tars (the fresh Slackware), ejects the CD-tray, waits for her to press Enter, closes the tray, and finaly reboots to my good old known fresh Slackware.
I'm trying to create some Linux partitions to install Slackware on my Lenovo W510 notebook and I'm getting some partition "errors" when using fdisk or cfdisk during the Slackware install. I have a feeling this is due to the hidden system restore partition and was wondering how others have dealt with this.

The reason I want a root account in Salix because I believe in freedom of choice, and my choice always was and always will be to have a root account set up so I can login as root. I am aware of the risk involed in creating a root account.
View 14 Replies View RelatedAre there any prerequisites which much be met in order for udev to create /dev/usb/hiddev* nodes?
I have two Slack 13.0 systems, each connected to a APC UPS via USB, one of which creates a hiddev0 node and the other doesn't. apcupsd can't find the UPS unless this node is present.
The "working" system has been stable in its current configuration for so long that I honestly can't remember if I had to tweak anything in this regard. I've verified that it doesn't use any local udev rules to create this node, and to the best of my knowledge there are no external scripts or processes which would create it either.
The non-working system has a similar configuration - no local rules and/or scripts which touch usb devices or nodes.
I have two computers with SATA drives and burners installed, and when I try to burn a DVD or CD on either one it comes out corrupt. I have NO such problems on my older IDE drives. Is there a setting I'm missing? I'm getting sick and tired of making coasters.

View 6 Replies View RelatedCurrently running Slackware 13.37 64-bit on a notebook and finally have suspend/hibernate after realizing that USB devices, especially USB HDDs, need to be disconnected before suspend/hibernate can work. Problem is I have 2 USB HDDs that are connected to my notebook whenever the notebook is stationary for the extra storage so I'd like to create a script that would get invoked that would stop the suspend/hibernate process if certain partitions are mounted. I know what I would like to accomplish, but I have basic scripting knowledge
1. script would basically store a user specified string containing devices that are non-USB, ie: $NONUSB="/dev/sda /dev/sdb"
2. possibly use /etc/mtab to get a list of what is currently mounted and then remove lines containing whatever is specified in $NONUSB and store those values in $USB
3. run a for loop that executes 'umount' on each token in $USB
3a. stop suspend/hibernate process if 'umount' fails at any point
3b. if 'umount' passes then suspend/hibernate

Theres a package I'm going to install that is available only in 32-bit, but I have its dependencies installed as regular 64-bit. Since I'm multilib, will the 32-bit package be able to work with the 64-bit deps?
If not, can 32-bit versions of the deps be installed side by side with the 64 bit?
I want a pkgtool-like gtk app for xfce, something like KDE k-package, which can install/remove/... and show the app description text file.
