PupCore - 0.1 ALPHA - 4.1.2 Barebones Base

#1 Post by J-Bob »

Well, I'm getting back to work at building my next BobPup, but now i'm building my new project "PupCore" designed either for usage alone, or for building puplets, and to be used for the next BobPup, which i plan to place in the 100MB ballpark.

emphasis for puplet/fork

usage of tgz or sfs modules for adding function.
being useable without need of getting a huge amount of packages
lightweight, linked libraries.
removal of any fat in this pup, aka making it lean.

for internet+ sfs
custom setup of firepup, thunderbird, komposer, and sunbird merged together in a folder with linked libs to decrease size, but offer full function.

for office sfs
Koffice, that's what the office sfs is, just the koffice one.

Media sfs
gxine, possibly kdenlive

qt4/kde4 sfs
sellf-explanatory

well, it's in the planning phase, and the goal for it's size is to be about 65-75MB

add suggestions below

package manager and xvesa

Can you build one with only the package manager, basic desktop utilities, rox and xvesa? That will be sweet.

Sounds like it can be done, but for this i would require unleashed,

i could work on it on my desktop since it uses xvesa (but it's a 1.8GHz 1GB ram puppy-powered beast :twisted: ) but again, it might be able to be done.

I would suggest you get puppy 4.1.2 barebones by wolf pup. it might be more like what you are looking for, as mine is one designed with a bit of a different market.

p.s. yes i changed my public image 8)
