Yes, they should but I might recompile some of them.

ok, I'll wait then, the '487' packages are up on the archive already

wine repackaged as sfs too and verified that it works on my install too
latest jre sfs by shinobar also works and mirrored on dpup additional pkgs
static precompiled deadbeef music player repackaged as pet
Get here
md5sums are here

Hello, dejan555.

I hope you are well.

What would be the best urxvt (rxvt-unicode) to run on dpup-4.87, if we do not like or
need a tabbed terminal ? Something supple, that can open another window of itself
without making a fuss or issuing font (-fnt parameter) errors.

I tried compiling the latest rxvt-unicode-9.19, it didn't work in dpup-4.87 -- some
image lib was missing. * (see note)

Then, I tried installing the rxvt-unicode-ml_9.07-2+b1_i386.deb and then the
rxvt-unicode-lite_9.07-2+b1_i386.deb from the Debian Squeeze listing at pkgs.org,
without success. These ones seem to be allergic to any TTF mono fonts -- even if the
fonts are present in the dpup.

I ask because I have written many information scripts based on less. In UpupRaring
3.9.9.2 or most other Puppies, it is easy to issue a command in the form

[dejan555]

I'll try some emulators and reply again.
These days I'm trying to update gtk2 and dependent libs and compile latest gimp with python support and some plugins

The wine pet works but xbmc won't run on this pc, nexuiz does though.
Dpup487 is working well on this pc.

Billtoo I have had MJWIN on every machine I've ever owned and my mom has been hooked on it since 2000. When she finally got a Win7 box I created an XP VM just so she could play it.

Got it! Thanks, dejan.

As you suggested, I simply made a link from mrxvt-full to mrxvt, and now something
like this:

[dejan555]

Looks cool musher0, I have a transparent/tabless/scrollbarless mrxvt for weechat too. (0.4.4-dev version, it's in dpup486 pets)
Earlier version of urxvt (I think 9.15) compiles on dpup but something doesn't work right.

I always loved Xmahjongg, it's simple but has many layouts and themes to choose from I even made that little gui to choose which ones to load, my favorite combo is boar-dorothys-green

[dejan555]

Gimp 2.8.10 is finally compiled, but before it installs we'll have to do an update of gtk and some libraries. I was thinking easiest way would be to apply a delta file to main sfs instead doing a full iso, it's 13 MB and easy to apply.
For gimp, I'm thinking of making sfs with python+other extra scripts and plugins (GMIC is also compiled and working nicely )
I'll upload update and files tomorrow.

[dejan555]

Dpup 487 Update 1
EDIT: After you apply this update you can proceede to Update 2

Attached is a script to download delta files and update main dpup sfs or devx. (assuming you use frugal install)
Download it, unpack and make executable, move in executable path

[Billtoo]

I applied the updates and everything is working fine so far, conky is
taking a little more screen space after the update.
Thanks

[dejan555]

Hmm, are the fonts bigger?
freetype and fontconfig are also updated, maybe that's why conky takes more space, something might have changed there.
Didn't notice any change in fonts in gtk apps.
