I usually like watching crime investigating and sci-fi tv usually and I came across a interactive Canadian coldcase flash movie that was interesting here's a link, http://www.cbc.ca/news/coldcase/cases/greavette.html you can pause the slides with a left click mouse and drag them forward and reverse with the mouse. Kind of a neat way of displaying images with sound. just click the flash image to start Smile

I added the /usr/bin/ar bin because its included in the devx but not in the iso, basically it allows the extraction of debs and others, strange it wasn't in the iso as default. probably could be removed for other newer 4 series versions to use this updated pet.
oh well tuuxxx.


I don´t get it ttuuxxx, the ar executable allows extraction from xarchiver or File-roller?. Cause, actually It is not used by the deb2pet.rpm2pet script.

Yes its used by xarchiver & File-roller to extract deb.rpm.
And yes deb2pet.rpm2pet doesn't use it, but it was a alternative addition Smile That will be included in the next release.

ttuuxxx


ttuuxxx the deb2pet.rpm2pet installer does not work because it try to use unrpm and undeb applications, that are not present in 214X. Then it just creates a pet package with the pet.specs file inside but nothing more (that pet is registered by petget).

Anyway you can use dpkg-deb (don´t confuse with buggy dpkg) instead of undeb to use small and smart dejan555 script, but there´s not a full extraction alternative for rpm packages. Sad

The alternative code from amigo is GREAT for rpm, it does not need any additional library or application and works really good Very Happy . But it has two inconvenients (or I must say it is incomplete for the implementation needed in 214X):

1. It extracts the deb/rpm package but not install it, so I must add the additional code from dejan555 that produces a correct installation.

2. For deb packages it does a full extraction adding the unneeded control files from the deb package, so I need to use other alternative like dpkg-deb that works fine.

I´m working now in a new mixed version that is working fine Wink , should finish tonight.

Greetings,
clarf

I added some additional options, still need some polish in rpm code and of course the instllation option for rpm.

I know I'm new in linux programming and shell scripting, for this reason the code is functional but ugly and sometimes I just get lost. I usually start from a main function used in C, but script code seems to execute step by step, well I'm learning slowly, yet need to learn Xdiag and GTK...

OK, I finished the highly modified version. This little application list, extract, verbose extract and install deb/rpm package content.

I´ll upload a pet with the MIME to automatically install deb/rpm soon.

How should I name it?. I was thinking in alientopet, what do you think?.

OK,

Here it is alienmanager for deb/rpm packages, no additional libraries needed Smile . Includes MIME for one click install, also support command line parameters, type alienmanager --help for more info.

Many thanks to dejan555, amigo and tuuxxx for the support, information given and code Shocked , this application would not have been possible without your help.

clarf,

Will alienmanager run on other puplets? I just want to be sure I have my facts straight as I start setting up the apps/utilities section for 214X.

Thanks,
Sully

Hi Sully,

It should work fine in other puplets, because no additional libraries are needed just busybox and basic system tools.

It uses cpio, dd and some basic extraction tools like gunzip, bunzip2 and unzx to extract and list rpm packages. For deb extraction it uses busybox dpkg-deb.

In installation mode (the one used in Rox-Filer MIME), It calls petget after the extraction and pet conversion is done. It uses tar, gzip and tgz2pet for pet conversion.

Greetings,
clarf

Hi Guys here's a music player/Manager, you can even edit your song tags with it Smile
Its actually a very nice program, and I managed to make the pet under 1MB wow, lol I had to compile and include just a couple of libs, lol I also left the locals in Smile
libcdio-0.82-i386
libmad-0.15.1b-i386
libmodplug-0.8.7-i386
libnotify-0.4.4-i386
libsndfile-1.0.21-i386
taglib-1.6.1-i386
Plus I had to lower a few version numbers in the .configure script, but the end result was really good Smile So enjoy
ttuuxxx

Ps also included the pragha-0.7.1.1-i386-libs-dev.pet which is just the all the dev files for all the files above Smile So If you wanted to compile using those libraries you could.

That looks cool, will have to try it later.
libmad is not in 214X by default or it needed newer version?
