For those having trouble booting with kernel 4.9, here's alternative (32 bit only), not ofiicial Debian though.
Extract This archive: kernel-4.4.87-i386.squashfs.tar.gz in the frugal installed 'live' directory.
Contents are vmlinuz1 (should be replaced) and kernel-4.4.87.squashfs
And it should boot with with kernel 4.4.87
Taken from OscarTalks's D-pup-Stretch (thanks!).

Now there are total 3 (three) Dog Stretch threads on this forum and countless other Debian/UbuntuDog offsprings out there. This latest Dog endeavor could have easily been consolidated into an existing thread!

uextract 3.30 |
|
I noticed that there was a uextract package in 32 bit section
https://fredx181.github.io/StretchDog/i386/Packages/Extra/uextract_1.0.1_i386.deb
.... but none in 64bit section
So I made my own.
Available download...
uextract_3.30_amd64.deb

Re: uextract 3.30 |
|
Huh??
Don570, I've been installing UExtract (just the one and only latest .pet SFR releases every so often) into both 32-bit and 64-bit for a few years. I don't get it, I've never had a problem in any 32 and/or 64 bit OS, pup, ddog, or otherwise using the one & only .pet SFR releases (and updates). What would your .pet do that I am not already getting? Jeez, I am really, really confused now because SFR explained to me long ago that it didn't matter for his UExtract pet (they install both to 32 ans 64 bit equally) since UExtract is a script.

Yes. What I meant to say is that I installed the 64bit AMD stretch dog
and expected the packages available to be listed in 64 bit section.
Other distros get around this with a 'common' section

I liked how it played back media files. No strange artifacts and very smooth.
The audio was low when first installed, but easy enough to increase.

Some more observations.
Wacom Bamboo tablet worked at start up. There was no need for
xorg.conf file.
When I tried to install a mypaint appimage that I got from
https://travis-ci.org/mypaint/mypaint
It wouldn't run. The error mentioned that the icons were missing.
This is a common error and has been written about.
https://github.com/mypaint/mypaint/wiki/FAQ-Missing-icons
______________________________________________
I tried the latest stable version of Blender 3-d graphics
https://www.blender.org/download/Blender2.79/blender-2.79-linux-glibc219-x86_64.tar.bz2/
However It wouldn't run because openGL 2.1 isn't installed
I checked the dependencies....
Code: | libGLU.so.1 => not found
libGL.so.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGL.so.1 (0x00007f09d1f88000) |
_______________________________________________
pfind doesn't work very well , so I looked into why it wasn't searching the right drives.
I suggest the following change....
in the file
/usr/local/pfind/pfilesearch/pfilesearch
line 654
Code: | export EXCLUDE="/mnt" |
should be change to
_____________________________________________
To get pfind to 'Show location' which is very useful...
pfind needs the right filemanager, so I made the change
in /usr/local/pfind/func_showlocation
I changed
Code: | if [ $FILEMANAGER = rox ]; then
else
exec $FILEMANAGER "${FILE%/*}/" 2> /tmp/pfind-error$PROGPID
fi
|
to simply...
Code: | exec rox -s "$FILE" 2> /tmp/pfind-error$PROGPID |
Thunar could be used as well but I like rox.

Yes, forgot to add to 64-bit repo.
Added your .deb now and can be installed with Synaptic or apt-get, thanks Don570 !:
https://fredx181.github.io/StretchDog/amd64/Packages/Extra/uextract_3.30_amd64.deb
Indeed, as it's just a script it could be: uextract_3.30_all.deb, to be suitable for both/all architectures, but kept it like it is now to avoid too many changes.

Try installing package "libgl1-mesa-dri" , see also here:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=965414#965414
Thanks for your recommendations for pfind.

No, they don't install equally and both DDog's and don570's uextract debs are flawed as they don't comply with the Debian package building guidelines
Debian Binary Package Building HOWTO wrote: | 4.1. control
Let's start with the control file. The version number must have a dash with an additional Debian package version number, e.g. '1.1-1'. If your program consists e.g. only of portable shell scripts, use 'all' as its 'Architecture'. | read more here:

Yes. Poorly named.
Also I found out that official pet packages need to be carefully named.
For instance BarryK wants underscore in front of NLS like
mtpaint_NLS-3.40-1-w5c.pet
