Where to find missing dependencies?

#1 Post by Chromium »

I have installed several packages through the Puppy Package Manager and have a list of Missing Dependencies:

perlapi-5.10.0
perlapi-5.10.1
python2.6-cairo
python2.6-gobject
libmime-base64-perl

How and where can I get these files?

Thanks for your help

Debian directories to inspect

/pool/main/libp/libperl5i-perl
/pool/main/p/python2.6


Sometimes the .so files you can't find easily directly. They might be a part of another package. I listed above the directories for packages I'd download and inspect. If they contained the dependencies, I'd probably install the whole package.

If you installed Ubuntu packages, you can see if their repositories are organized the same.

I found with python stuff I have to compile it in puppy. Though I don't know if I tried using packages from Debian.
