Slackware :: Made By The Doinst.sh Script From The Aaa_base Package?

Jun 24, 2010

I've noticed that this symlink was pointing to /var/X11R6, which doesn't exist on my system, which is running a newly installed copy of Slackware 13.1. Upon investigation, it was made by the doinst.sh script from the aaa_base package. The script looks for /usr/X11R6/lib/X11, and is supposed to create the /var/X11R6 symlink if the directory exists. The problem is that the aaa_base package is installed first, no? On a clean system, there is no X11 directory for it to link to. The offending part of the script:

Code:
# Did anything ever use this? I don't know, but if we're keeping all
# this other garbage then it probably won't hurt:
if [ -d usr/X11R6/lib/X11 ]; then
( cd var ; rm -rf X11R6 )
( cd var ; ln -sf ../usr/X11R6/lib/X11 X11R6 )
elif [ -d usr/X11R6/lib64/X11 ]; then

[Code]...

Slackware :: Src2pkg Doinst.sh Auto Library Links

Apr 1, 2011

auto generated doinst.sh files when using the -A switch.

The file will contain link removal and generation for libraries in the package eg.

When upgrading to a new version of the app, the library name might change eg.

So the links that doinst.sh creates is now incorrect. ie. the link is now dead because it points to a file that does not exist. Does one have to regenerate .src2pkg and resulting doinst.sh when using a new version of the package or is there another way to have doinst.sh regenerated without redoing .src2pkg?

Slackware :: Any Kind Of Package Manager / Slap-get / Sbopkg For Slackware ARM?

Feb 13, 2011

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?

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?

Slackware :: Creating A Php Package For 13.1?

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;

Slackware :: Package Manager And Dependencies ?

Aug 12, 2010

I am a long-time Debian user (I use it since Woody) and yesterday, due to an unexpected problem on my hard drive and an inexplicable lack of a current Debian cd or a possibility to perform a net install, I had to choose between either stay without computer at home or install one of the two other operating systems I happened to have on cds: Free-BDS or Slackware 13.0. Since I do not have time to learn something that I consider to be more radically different from Debian, I went for Slack.

So, first impressions:

1. Quick and smooth installation, though I got a bit over-enthusiastic when it came to select packages to install and unselected many libraries that I later realised that were necessary for various packages and I had to install them anyway.

2. Configure my wifi was surprisingly easy. I had braced myself for overly-complicated configurations to be done while I'd not have access to google, however rc.inet1.conf was very straight-forward and it provided plenty of examples to illustrate basically every possible configuration. All I had to do was to copy my wpa_supplicant.conf from my Debian backup and it worked.

3.X: For some reason I expected I'd have trouble to properly install and configure X, however my window manager was up and running in a few minutes. I copied my ~/GNUstep folder from my backup gave me the exact same X environment I had in Debian.

4. Package managing and dependencies: (I think I am correct to presume that that has to be the main complaint of most Debian users). pkgtool is very easy to use but, yeah, it does not resolve dependencies.

However, and while I installed a system way more minimalistic than any Debian system I had, I was surprised to find out that:

-Firefox had only ONE dependency

-vlc had none

-xfe, on the other hand, has some obscure dependency that I cannot figure out where to get it (libGLU).

So, a question for more experienced Slackware users: How do you get around the dependencies? Is there a quick way to find out what additional packages you will need on beforehand, or you install the package and try to run it, so to see what libs you need when it fails to start?

Slackware :: What Is Default Package Manager For Slack?

Jan 20, 2011

I have just made a clean installation of slackware 13.1 (Full installation from DVD)..At the time of installation , it prompted to create a bootable USB stick and I am able to boot using that

1.My BIOS is quite old and has the Cylinder 1024 problem..It just recognises 137 GB in a 160 GB drive...Most distros are able to read beyond the 137 GB ...Currently I am booting using GRUB 2 which was installed during Ububtu 10.10 install. As you are aware GRUB2 recognises all the OS in the drive automatically and adds them to the menu on "update-grub"...The slackware entry appears...However on selection I get the error - "error: out of Disk"...How to deal with this?

2. What is the default Package Manager for Slack? I read that Pkginstall is the default but doesnt update dependencies. I have salix (slack derivative) in another comp and I use "slapt-get"..Is it available in slackware?I want to install wireless driver ipw2100 (Intel pro wireless 2100 chipset) and get wireless up.. I can chroot from say Ubuntu and do the needful.

Slackware :: Error In Package Size With PKGtool

Apr 10, 2011

A slacky.eu user Spina, I did notice a bug in calculating the size of the package when the directory contains a space in the name. Example:

Code:
/tmp/prova dir# LANG=en installpkg abook-0.6.0pre2-i686-4cf.txz
/bin/du: cannot access `/tmp/prova': No such file or directory
/bin/du: cannot access `dir/abook-0.6.0pre2-i686-4cf.txz': No such file or directory
Verifying package abook-0.6.0pre2-i686-4cf.txz.
Installing package abook-0.6.0pre2-i686-4cf.txz:

PACKAGE DESCRIPTION:
# abook
# Abook is a text-based addressbook program designed to use with mutt
# mail client. Abook runs on Linux, FreeBSD and some other UNIXes.
# Home: [URL]
# Package abook-0.6.0pre2-i686-4cf.txz installed.

This error is caused by 'readlink -f'
COMPRESSED="$(/bin/du -sh $(readlink -f $package) | cut -f 1)"
instead with
Code:
COMPRESSED="$(/bin/du -sh "$(readlink -f $package)" | cut -f 1)"
