After that recommendation:
and the pressing proposed challenge I have to think about compile myself packages (I am only user!) I am considering if I really do that (I did read with great respect the deception from Musher, a really bilingual man having no difficulty to read English, or from Rainer from LazY Pup, a person having initially no great English knowledge, but actually, now, today, an enormous experience as "Puppy freak No.", hm, no. 1 or less, or more (more than 1 does not go...)?step wrote:I would recommend in order:

2. If not found and if you have the skills compile the package yourself - ask questions if you get stuck
3. If you don't have the skills, post a request if someone would kindly compile the package for you.

Also, Smokey01's Puppy Newletter (search the forum) has a section on compiling programs. It's explained in very simple terms and may be a starting point.
FatDog64 is one of the being accepted as a main Puppy release having streamlined the subdivision "help" in the main menu
What is FatDog64, where are the sources mainly coming from, is the build of FatDog64 possible with some distro builder like woof?
There are major questions if I will contribute for me myself to get new packages?
I did read in the past «some kind of LFS derivate".
Do I remember right?
step recommend me Smokey01's recommendations, all the environment remember me to slackware.
where are the sources coming from?
what is to know, as beginner
to consider "I will try to do it myself"? is that the best idea without experience and exact howto or step by step user help?what would be with pre compiled LFS packages (one or two distributions offers them. NuTyx, a "about" one-man-distribution (not any more today) build those packages and offers
a/ recepts
b/ finish downloadable binaries in a git
see first picture
c/ under http://nutyx.org/en/documentation
links permitting you to find without to have search where you don't know really where
d/ how to build packages
e/ how to develop packages as one real developer or developing assistent
f/ how to compile in half automatic all LFS / BLFS
see second picture.
Have we for FatDog such tools or can we use the tools from NuTyx if FatDog is a derivate of LFS (LFS is NOT a distribution! LFS is only a book! ,,,)
or can we find such help in the Slackware community if FatDog has to be considered as "more a derivate from Slackware" as from what else other?
I did begin this new thread to bring the information in a
central place
without to have to search in a 14..15 pages long thread or in the all forum
!please write:
information, only information...
