I've been trying to build gCompris a childrens educational package. I got the compressed source & build from slackbuilds.org The only dependency mentioned in the readme was gnet so built and installed that ok .
With gCompris the build was progressing fine until a it hit a point at " text2html" .Looked in the 4th install disk of slackware 13.37 no sign of either.looked in slackbuild also no mention of either.
I downloaded from http://ftp.nluug.nl/os/Linux/distr/s...ce/n/net-snmp/ source and I build new package and works ok no errors. If I change net-snmp.SlackBuild and add CFLAGS --with-mib-modules=ucd-snmp/lmSensors --with-ldflags=-lsensors while I need lmsensors support in net-snmp. But the package compiling ends with error:
[Code]...
Edit: Ack! Duplicate post. See my thread, What a slacker learned from building Linux from Scratch..., the build notes are in this post.

But what can I do so slackpkg makes a slackware package and uses the adapted build script ?
Still I am asked to package a war file as an RPM package. That is an unusual RPM packaging(To me). If you guys could guide me I have a war file inside a folder, that folder is inside a tar file as a SOURCE for RPM package. The structure is like below.
[Code]...
I simply want that the war file from sources is transferred to the web app of my tomcat server through RPM. I try to package it as an RPM, but its always giving me errors in %build stage. When I try to remove %build from stage from the spec file, then it says command missing.
My system details are:
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (x86_64)
VERSION = 10
PATCHLEVEL = 1
LSB_VERSION="core-2.0-noarch:core-3.0-noarch:core-2.0-x86_64:core-3.0-x86_64"
Trying to install SW 13.1 (on DVD) on the following system: M/B Intel: DX38BT Processor Intel Core 2 Quad Q6700 - 2.66GHz, 8MB Cache, 1066MHz FSB, Socket 775 Memory Corsair Dual Channel 8192MB PC10600 DDR3 1333MHz Memory (4x2048MB) Graphics Diamond Radeon HD 3850 Video Card - Viper, 512MB GDDR3, PCI Express 2.0 P/S Ultra 1000W
My goal is to install the i386 build on one partition and the 64-bit build on another. I have been away from Linux for a while and am sick to death of Win7, want to come home. :-}
Booted on i386 side of DVD, system freezes after a couple of lines that start with ATA2. Does not respond to 3 finger salute, ctrl-c, nothing. Have to press reset. I have tried both huge.s and hugesmp.s kernels
Booted on 64-bit side, comes up fine. I performed the install, selected for automatic lilo install. Lilo install hung but I was able to reboot. I booted off the 64-bit side again, entered the following: huge.s root=/dev/sde3 rdinit= ro It booted fully to the login prompt but the keyboard does not work, no input.
In INSTALL I can see:
Quote:
to build from either unpacked tarball or CVS source:
autoheader
autoconf
./configure # (--help to see options)
make # (the make from GNU, sometimes called gmake)
su # Possibly required
make -n install # (to see where all the files will go)
make -s install # (to really install, -s to silence output)
code....
I think that trouble is in autoheader. I don't now does src2pkg (2.1) support it.Is it impossible to build a package of privoxy with src2pkg?
I tried to build several packages designed for slackware 13 at slackbuilds. Those was a simple apps like ardour, audacity for example.

My CPU is AMD Phenom 9550 Quad core. It supports 64 bit. My os is slackware 13_64. What do I need to change in slackbuild to create a txz package for those apps?
I have just installed debian stretch for my kids, on an old laptop, with xfce.
gcompris is installed already. if I try to install vlc (apt-get install vlc) it says it depends on vlc-nox (=1:2.2.1.dmo10) & vlc-plugin-notify (=1:2.2.1.dmo10), which are not going to be installed
if then I try to install vlc-nox it says it depends on libtag1v5 (>= 1.9.1-2.4), which is not going to be installed
if then I try to install libtag1v5 it says it depends on libtag1v5-vanilla (= 1.9.1-2.4), which is not going to be installed if then I try to install libtag1v5-vanilla it says it says it needs to remove gcompris gstreamer0.10-plugins-good libtag1-vanilla libtag1c2a
If I proceed gcompris is removed, and I can then proceed to install vlc.
Does it depend on having enabled a few extra repositories (multimedia, non free)?
Education repositories - openSUSE. lists repositories for 10.2 and 10.3 and promises 11.1 eventually. 11.2 isn't even mentioned. Where can I find programs that teach spelling, arithmetic, biology, etc.?

I installed Edubuntu Karmic in a friends computer, his daughter is learning to use a computer and she uses Gcompris a lot, but lately she's taking some spanish classes at school and she needs to learn the numbers and abc in spanish. There's anyway I can change the language in Gcompris to spanish?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHave you ever seen a hobbyist electonic Kit? They have projects that try to teach what each type of component does. Is there such a thing for Bash? It would tend to be aimed at tasks that are suitable for bash and not attempt to go over the line of what is better suited as a compiled program. Intuitively I think maybe something that timestamps files; when you download them, or anything else that would keep a home PC better organized is practical.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI work at a small company where we use to deploy things by just checking out the repo and copying stuff to production servers. This has to come to an end, enter .deb packages!
So I'm wondering what's the best procedure to do that. I already know how to create .deb packages, most of our stuff is Python and we're going to use python-support and cdbs. But how to maximally automate this?
We have a Git repo and ideally the whole thing should work like this:
* a tag is created in the Git repo (the version can be provided manually)
* some file like 'version.py' is created so that setup.py and the packaged software can refer to it and know the tag
* changelog is created from the Git commit logs
* the package is built (that's the part I've worked out - python-support and cdbs are involved here)
* optionally, the package is uploaded somewhere
There's a .deb package named 'git-buildpackage', is it suitable for this task? So far I can tell that it has one drawback - it looks for the 'debian/' directory in the root of the repository, which is not the case - our repo consists of several subdirectories, each contains a subproject that will be packaged independently.
i make rpm package from linux kerlne 3.0.0 source. default spec file in "linux-3.0/scripts/package/mkspec" ,i add %post lines,this step use to install new kernel with rpm (ivh) tools and configure grub automatically

Is is possible to compile (but not install) a library, and then compile a package using that library instead of the version that's installed?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have in the past few months managed to get several people to switch to Linux just on the merits of its educational programs and games alone. Many people who are interested in educational programs for their children do not know where to find them for windows, and even when they do find them, they cost money, and might be worth nothing. So, i started looking into this on Linux, and did only minimal research on the available programs and games that are educational. I wound up already building 3 new computers that use Fedora, and getting several other people who already have a computer to switch to Fedora, just by making a video on how to use most of the educational programs that are available. This made it easier for those people to learn how to use the programs, especially for those that are not that intuitive, and it also showed them just what was available. [URL]
View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded from Maverick to Natty (64-bit NOT a clean install).
Now when I start Gcompris I get a white rectangle on a black screen.
I tried to uninstall - reinstall, but that did not work.
I switched to the gnome desktop and everythinh worked fine, so I suppose this is a Unity problem.
I am running Fedora 12 x86-64. I have a SRPM and want to build both x86-64 and i686 package. But the rpmbuild -ba can only build x86-64 package. --target=i686 is not working fine too, it try to find dependency in /usr/lib64. How can I build i686 package?

I downloaded the .bz2 file and Archiver extracted it for me. I remember in Slackware you just use installpkg on .bz2 files... Or was it .gz... I forget, anyway, how can I run Nightly-Build? Run-Mozilla.sh opens my Aurora browser.

I want to build a package from source using src2pkg, but I don't know how to avoid library miss match. Suppose I have Firefox 3.5.2 on Slackware 13.0 64 and I want to upgrade it to 3.6.2. Last time when I venturesomely installed Firefox-3.6.2-current into my Slackware 13.0, I got library miss match. Thus, instead of upgrading the whole packages to current (which is impractical and cumbersome), I want to build 3.6.2 from source. How can I do this? Is there any guideline how to use src2pkg? Or should I rather use makepkg? Do I need to create a Makefile?

I am currently trying to get my RadRails working. There are certain tasks I cannot complete and I'm guessing that installing mongrel and some other items would get everything going.
