Need p7zip-full for Fatdog

I used Qt5.6.2 to develop apps, but for me to compile the full p7zip without trying to link in someone's libraries, I would need to install an earlier version of Qt, namely Qt4. Even that is troublesome although I will eventually have it. I had not problems with Qt5.6.2 except that it does not produce ui_unetbootin.h when I run lupdate or at least when /configure is run.

So I'm in a pinch since unetbootin is telling me that I need p7zip.

Just curious if anyone can understand my plight or can figure it out somehow.

Thanks.

PS I need a 7zip, that's all. I know the Fatdog archivers are great tools but I'm not sure I can get them to properly do an unzip of 7zip. Perhaps they can - so far, they unzip it but it's wrong. Flags or something maybe?
COmmand line? I don't know yet.

Try to convert in txz format the following package:

Wow, I will defintitely try to unzip that file and do what I should do, thank you.

I'm pretty sure by convert you just mean to unzip?

I now have a libexec dir with some executables. I would guess I"m ok now?

I mean I don't really need to do anything - I can use it now?

I'll test it out.

Right-click the pet package and choose "Convert to new package format".

You should pay more attention to the netiquette of this forum before posting: Subject and Body of the message in the right section or you risk to be banned by an angry moderator :roll: I also have the "libicui18n" error with latest unetbootin and I have solved using a previous version ( the 613 version). I have observed that the missing libicui18n come with the palemoon folder (if you use palemoon browser) so I wonder if symlinking it in /usr/lib or /usr/lib64 could solve the problem with latest unetbootin. I'm lazy and I have not tried this. I also observed that patched unetbootin extracted from the packages in ubuntu's repositories (xenial ubuntu for example) betterly work... But I'm lazy and I have not experimented more.

EDIT: I have not the warning about icui18n launching later versions of unetbootin extracted from the deb packages at:

https://launchpad.net/~gezakovacs/+archive/ubuntu/ppa

I need to install some package.

The official repository has the preference. SFR is a developer of fatdog64. You can trust him.

Where to find version 6.13?

Isn't Palemoon browser for Windows - I'm doing this on LInux.

I have the icui18n problem even on machines with Qt installed. I haven't yet installed it on my laptop which is where I intend to use unetbootin.

I am willing to try version 6.13 if I can find it. And I am also willing to keep running version 6,47 and simply find a package that has icui18n.
I'll do it either way but so far I've got neither.

I think I've found it at a site!

versio 6.13

Should I choose Puppy LInux as my distribution?

SOoryy, I forgot to say that it is no longer complaining aobut icui18n or any other complaints so the problem is more or less gone at least so far.

SOrry, I forgot
