Hello Bro

I used petmaker for awhile now and found it very useful.

ATM I am running dpup-481a from gposil (full install). I installed 1.7-3 (std). I wanted to install the devx_481.sfs. It did so successfully . Smile

However, petmaker said there was a menu entry and restarted the WM. I couldn't find such an entry and I believe there isn't one. No biggy, just to let you know.

Cheers

Hmmm, it's not there, better check if glade is actually there, may be a bug in the sfs.

Glade is definitely there and works.

Might be a dpup thing. No worries Smile

Cheers

I used petmaker to create a petmaker.sfs It seems to work....is there some reason one should not do this?

Thanks
Thom

Trio.......... there is an error in the .desktop command line. At the end there is a surplus ampersand (&) Jwm kind of ignores it anyway but jwm -p shows it up as an error in the menu.

DaveS,

Yes you're right

@All

So sorry, I really don't have time right now, got a new job with lots of work. I can't maintain all my apps, maybe later when things are normal again (have a spare puppy time)

Thanks

I have used Pet Maker Plus successfully with a puppy 4.21 installation on one of my machines, but I cannot get it to work on my 4.31 (MacPup Foxy 3) machine. When I click on an SFS to install it, the installation does not take place. The package title can be found in petget, but the program is not installed. Petget can remove the item from the installed package list ok. I have tried both versions of 1.73 the one designated 430 acts as I describe above, when I use the other version, it starts the installation dialogue, but after a second, it beeps and aborts the installation process. I would really like to be able to use this to install Oxygen office3.sfs so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Oh I have tried Petmaker plus on different .sfs files, and all have the same problem.

Thanks in advance.

cheers, Paul

Thanks alot! This is truly an amazing piece of software. They should put this in the puppy package manager.
