How to run Evennia Python development system in Slacko Pup?
I've been part of the Evennia project for nearly a year. I'm trying to get it running on a puppy computer that I salvaged It is an i686 pentium III. Puppy is running great but Evennia isn't. The install instructions are here:
https://github.com/evennia/evennia/wiki/Getting-Started
The part I can't figure out is how to install pip/virtualenv
Any help please!

The slacko 6.3.2 devx will have python and other developement packages, worth a try. Generally, the devx supplies
the missing packages that were used in the linux build, they are removed to make puppy smaller so puppy could run in less RAM.
They are used for running some additional software, as needed, or when compiling programs from source.
http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pu ... -6.3.2/32/
The devx is named devx_slacko_6.3.2.sfs.
To install an sfs package using the menu...
Menu-->Setup-->SFS-Load on-the-fly and choose the devx sfs. Usually the sfs needs to be in the /mnt/home/ directory.
Not sure how slacko 6.3.2 does /mnt/home/ running from CD, might have to copy the devx to /mnt/home/ and then save to CD
Edit: Accidently aimed you at the 6.3.0 instead of 6.3.2,:oops: my apologies
URL and devx file name corrected.

*I tried this and still have the same error.*
I take that back. Your solution fixed the error, and I just have a new one now!
libImaging/JpegDecode.c: In function 'ImagingJpegDecode':
libImaging/JpegDecode.c:136:9: error: 'JPEG_LIB_VERSION' undeclared (first use in this function)
libImaging/JpegDecode.c:136:9: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in
error: commands 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

According to this pagestreetwitch wrote:I should also note that these errors result from trying to install Pillow.
https://github.com/python-pillow/Pillow/issues/9
That guy got your error trying to install pillow because of a missing
libjpeg-dev
I dont know if you can get that from slackware repository....
I have never run slacko and don't know where to go looking for the missing stuff for slacko 6.3.2
Need some more help here from someone familiar with slacko.

puppy tahr 6.0.5 would run similar to the slacko you are using and has the full ubuntu software repositories.streetwitch wrote:Can you recommend another version of puppy?
ubuntu is easier to find software for, in my opinion anyway.
http://distro.ibiblio.org/puppylinux/pu ... 20-6.0-CE/
The file for 32-bit tahr 6.0.5 is tahr-6.0.5_noPAE.iso
The devx file is devx_tahr_6.0.5.sfs
It will setup pretty much the same as slacko.
Using the puppy package manager in the ubuntu tahr repositories you should be able to find any software you need.
-----------------------
You could also use an older puppy that is less cpu / memory intensive, such as lucid. http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=90461
Your PIII might like that better. Lucid is based on ubuntu lucid 10.04 so you would want to make sure Evennia would run on it first.
lucid might be more complicated setting up because of all the updates.Lots of versions and choices complicate things.
And I'm not badmouthing slacko, hope I didn't give you that I was. I just have not used it and don't know how its
software repositories compae to ubuntu.
