Hi All, I have compiled Geany 1.25 on Precise 5.7.1 retrò.
I tested it partially (I only used as a text editor) on Precise 5.7.1 retrò and 6.0.2 Tahr nopae, it seems to work well.
If anyone would like to try it, tips on how to improve the pet package and feedbacks are welcome.

i had nothing to do with the editing of your title, corvus.
which plugins are included? does this replace the existing geany or install beside it? does it keep your preferences and settings?
thanks.

I think it install beside because if you uninstall this version you can still use the previous version.

Yes it keep your preferences and settings.

Hi corvus - thanks for the geany pet and plugins. I just tested it on a Slacko 5.6 derivative and it did the job nicely. The only issue I had was that it installed geany in the utility menu instead of the document menu. Not sure if it does the same in other Puppies...

I have the same problem, I have tried to change the desktop files in /usr/share/applications unfortunately without result.
I'm happy that you enjoyed it.
Thanks for the feedback.

Hi corvus - I had a closer look at your pet and found out how to get the geany menu entry back into the document category. I did the following:
1) Removed the directory /usr/share/applications.in
(It contains a second copy of the geany.desktop file which seems incompatible with Puppy's needs - but I could be wrong about that. Anyway it works fine with that directory removed)
2) Opened /usr/share/appliactions/geany.desktop as text and changed line 136 from:
to:
I'm no expert at making pets but this worked for me if anyone wants to try it.
cheers!

Many thanks, corvus.
Will be testing this as soon as I have a minute.
Especially that you are offering a pet of the plug-ins as well.
BFN.

Directory /usr/share/applications.in is part of language packages. Probably it will replace the original when installing a .pet package or when executing a fixmenus. It depends on what language package one has installed since they all built by different langpack developers.
If I remember correctly the German language package doesn't replace the complete file but only missing [LangHere] entries of the .desktop file.
Though, it is definitely part of the pinstall file of the DE langpack.
Code: Select all
if [ -d usr/share/applications.in ];then #refer: /usr/sbin/momanager

@greengeek,
I can assure you that you know more than me, unfortunately since I compiled geany-1.25-i686 I changed my computer and I passed to T64_Light-k_4.1.3 EmSee_x86-64 an Italian version derived from 666philb's Tahrpup64.Nevertheless I made the changes you suggested and I installed it but will not start due to the following error:
Code: Select all
geany: error while loading shared libraries: libglib-2.0.so.0: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64.
but this time the icon is in the Document menu and not in Utilities, since the problem is that I think you've solved, thank's for the contribution.
@musher0,
I ask you, when you want to try it, to make the changes suggested by greengeek and tell me if it works for you too, so I can proceed with the upload of the modified version.
@LazY Puppy,
You're right, I installed Xanad's Italian language pack. What do you advise me to do with the "applications.in" folder ?
Thanks a lot. Regards.

I can't say this.
Comments and commented out removing of applications.in wrote: #rm -r -f usr/share/applications.in
#...don't remove it. might be useful for ppm when install future packages.
#...120926 yes, applications.in now handled in /usr/local/petget/installpkgs.sh.
Taken from pinstall.sh of langpack_de-20150419.
Another one (a few lines below):
line NOT commented out wrote:rm -r -f usr/share/desktop-directories.in
As I do understand the first quote above, applications.in is not removed by pinstall.sh script, so the package manager will overwrite any .desktop file on installation. Keeping the directory will make some code in /usr/local/petget/installpkgs.sh able to reset the .desktop file to the translated version.
So just decide of you want to keep the translated version of a .desktop file or if you don't. Probably removing just such single files from applications.in will do the job as well...
You could also just keep the directory plus all .desktop files and only editing entry Categories in the related .desktop file to change its menu category. I assume it will never ever change again then (after a new installation).

Thanks for the clarification RSH.
corvus - I guess the best thing to do then is just make the same change to both desktop files - the one in /usr/share/applications and also the one in /usr/share/applications.in

Thanks Lazy Puppy for the explanation, according to it and to the suggestions of greengeek I decided to modify the geany-1.25-i686.pet file, changed the line 136 of both desktop files and renamed it geany.desktop (what makes the pinstall.sh file, I had created, obsolete and I deleted it).
Replaced downloadable file from the first post.
Thanks for your time and effort.
