I installed the 0.5.1 in puppy 4.2.1. All seemed to go well but after starting Gparted it was still the 0.3.3 version without ext4 support

So... how do I get rid of the O.3.3 ?

[technosaurus]

you can just run /usr/sbin/gpartedbin or /usr/sbin/gparted_shell

- I'm not running 4.2.1 - maybe it is in /usr/bin in 4.2.1 ... you can use pfind

or delete the older gparted*.desktop file in /usr/share/applications and run refreshmenus

[Dromeno]

I think it must be something else. Refreshing the menu's does not help (I still get the 0.3.3 version)

And when I type

/usr/sbin/gpartedbin

in the console I get:


/usr/sbin/gpartedbin: symbol lookup error: /usr/sbin/gpartedbin: undefined symbol: g_file_io_stream_get_type

Do you have any idea what to do next?

[technosaurus]

Edit - did some looking & you will need the updated glib pet

[Dromeno]

I have a feeling that I am almost there... but not yet.

I followed your suggestion but if I type /usr/sbin/gpartedbin now I get:

symbol lookup error: /usr/sbin/gpartedbin: undefined symbol: gtk_widget_get_window

...and starting Gparted via the menu still brings up the 0.3.3 version

(persistent little Thing!!!)

[technosaurus]

Use the updated glib pet that I posted - It will be part of 4.4 CE - I have confirmed that this is the only pet you will need for a clean 4.3.1 install.

[Dromeno]

Yes, but unfortunately for puppy 4.2.1(not 4.3.1) , installing

glib-2.22.2-i486.pet

and the new Gparted results in the "lookup errors" I described!

[technosaurus]

that means you need to update gtk to at least 2.14

[Jim1911]

I installed your Gparted-0.5.1.pet on Stardust-012 which has Gparted-0.4.5 and it just broke the existing installation. However, I see that it is working fine on your 4.4 pre alpha.

What corrections are needed to get it to work on Stardust?

Thanks,
Jim

[technosaurus]

probably just the updated glib

[Jim1911]

Thanks, the updated glib did correct the problem with Gparted-0.5.1.

[8-bit]

I installed both pets aka. gparted-51 and the library pet in Puppy 4.3.1 and I get this from the terminal when I try to start it.
# gpartedbin
gpartedbin: error while loading shared libraries: libdevmapper.so.1.02: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

So evidently you are still missing a library file. or a link.

[8-bit]

technosaurus,

I evidently had the old library pet. I downloaded it again and Gparted 5.1 now works.
So I wanted to clarify that my previous problem was due to getting the earlier pet of the library.
Thank you!
