Some recent RPM's are using the 7z signature, instead of xz's.

From exploderpm:
# VERSION 0.3 Gilbert Ashley <amigo@ibiblio.org>
# Added support for newer fedora rpm archives which use 7z instead of xz
# Thanks to Jakub Szefer for finding and reporting this problem

The relative decompress command is:
"]"*|?"7z"*) dd if="$pkg" ibs=$o skip=1 2>/dev/null | unxz | cpio --quiet -ivdm ;;

The still older signature for lzma(2) was:
fda8a
echo -en '\0fd\037\07a\058\05a\000

Only the latest rpm2cpio may have this support and I am unsure whether busybox rpm2cpio does that

I retested uextract after rebooting my machine and it worked
fine this time.

I think I must have damaged something when I tried to compile the
latest gimp 2.8.22

And what about adding Zstandard for .zst extensions, we are using it in T2 and it's fast and small.

Zstandard is a real-time compression algorithm, providing high compression ratios. It offers a very wide range of compression / speed trade-off, while being backed by a very fast decoder. It also offers a special mode for small data, called dictionary compression, and can also create dictionaries from a sample set.

And many thank you's, I shall download and test.

EDIT: OOPS, my bad, forgot to tell you it also has a working .tzst extension (equals .tar.zst) as well as the normal zst, sorry.

No worries, here you go:

Version 3.30:
- new formats/extensions:

• .tar.zst, .tzst (Zstandard Compressed Tar Archive) [zstd+tar]

First post updated.

Bonjour,
Great program: thanks! (shouldn't it be the single default Puppy program of this type?)
French translation pet as attached file.
Just a little question: why two different "locale" directories for mo files, one inside the usual mo files directory with symbolic links ponting to a UExtract roxapp "locale" directory?

Cordialement.

Hello don570,

[don570]

I believe there's a pinstall.sh script that is run on install and
it is connected to the AppRun file somehow.

It is done that way to make the pop up window at the end of install procedure 'Do you want a Desktop icon?'

I'm not sure how it's done but read the last few lines of the pinstall.sh file
since they are the lines that make the pop up window.
I copied them and put them in my right click utility.
