Gtkdialog source download locations. [Solved]

#1 Post by TheNH813 »

Yeah this is going to be a problem.
https://gtkdialog.googlecode.com/files/ ... 8.3.tar.gz
404, glorious 404.

Can anyone point me to the source code of gtkdialog? I need to compile from source of a distro that doesn't have it available (Ubuntu 16.04LTS to be specific). I need it for various shell scripts I'v wrote that use it and it's nowhere to be seen. 0.8.0 is available from the https://code.google.com/archive/p/gtkdialog/downloads page, but not 0.8.3.

I used to keep a copy installed but that was several years ago and I don't have the source archive anymore. Does anyone around here have a copy I can have?

Nevermind that last question!

Good news! I found it on a old archive of mine I forgot to look in. Actually, I thought I had deleted that long ago. Heh, guess I was still holding on to a copy of it after all. Not planning on getting rid of my old source archives either. I'l be linking the source code for gtkdialog here for anyone that wants it.

Notes: I don't own this, I'm just providing a link. Gtkdialog is obviously open source [GPLv2.], so feel free to mirror it, distribute it, etc.

One last followup post: I tested compiling this on several Puppy Linux versions (Slacko, TahrPup64 and Precise) as well as Ubuntu 16.04 and Vector Linux. Builds fine with the correct dev packages installed.

@peebee Oh it's on Github now? Thanks for the link. Couldn't find that info searching in the usual places. Seems to be the exact same thing in terms of file modification dates, so it's good to know there's another place to get a copy. Gtkdialog is a pretty nice alternative to Zenity for the more complex UIs.

@jafadmin Yeah version 0.8.0 is on there, but not the latest version which was required to take some scripts I wrote on Puppy Linux and instead run them on Ubuntu for testing purposes. I mentioned that in my first post. Wonder why they deleted it before it became archived though, that's pretty weird.
