Bonjour à tous,
In 4.31, i created a file GIMP.roxfs version 4, in which I introduced the French localization files. When I launch the application it starts always in English.
However if I copy the french localization files in the appropriate directory before running the application, it starts in French.
How is it possible to change (I suppose AppRun) to load localization files just before opening Gimp?
Thank you in advance.
Cordialement, Wink

Here is the deb I used to get Kdenlive working.

That's right seaside, I never linked the locale files. If you have recompressed a .roxfs and included any locale packs, you must link them over to your system directories in the AppRun script. Not sure how to set a default language, though.

And Abush, I haven't forgotten about you. I have just been very busy lately.

Also, folks, If the sfs converter in pup 4.3 allows you to choose a temp directory, stay away from windoze partitions as the necessary symlinks will end up missing from the final result.

Does puppy 4.3 not come with ffmpeg? Im beginning to think that with all the differences between puppy 4.2 and 4.3 that 4.3 really should have been a 5.x instead.

If anyone has either repaired one of my roxapps or has created their own, please feel free to share it. I uploaded these to bring awareness to a way of packaging new apps that, when perfected, are easy to use and keep the file system clean. They do not require unioning with your filesystem like .sfs modules and they do not require installation to your system directories (for the most part at least).

Dayam, this puppy 4.3 is not too friendly.... it should have been called puppy 5.0, as the kernel version requires squashfs 4.x and will not use older versions. Maybe a puppy 4.3 with a retro kernel would be a good idea. I am working on the Kdenlive app and its a real pain...... I could swear it worked on the puppy 4.2 original without a problem. With 4.3, it needs an updated ffmpeg and all kinds of crap..... Also it seems that the mlt package needs to be installed for it to work, but Im still getting crashes because of libdc1394_control (actually the lack thereof). If anybody beats me to the punch, please feel free to upload your version..... Its this kind of community support on which Linux thrives.

actually i didnt know dingo but thanks. I'll have to check it out.

Anyways, I will try and get this Kdenlive working for 4.3. Tried GIMP and it seems to work perfectly after converting the sfs.
