Spanish local for v4beta5 400...
Using the base of previous Droope work + some corrections (usé una traducción más formal para que sea entendible por todos los hispanos, no sólo por los rioplatenses -como yo-) + translation on the newest parts...

Still can't probe it on LuPu 501...
When I overwrite the 'es_ES:spanish' file for this -attached-new version, it returns to english..
Am I doing something wrong with the test?

Thanks mave and GustavoYz,

They are added for the next version, just awaiting some code from Barry to update the Quickpet back end.

Cheers

Hola GustavoYz,

I wonder what would happen if you change your locale (menu > desktop > country settings) from es_AR to es_ES, just for testing? If that would give you the Spanish Quickpet, it would mean a link between es_AR and es_ES is missing or broken.
buena suerte!

Hi Mick,

I see the new quickpet_lupu-4rc2.pet, but the language file is still the old english.gz, right?

So no need to translate at this moment?
Sfs-grab...;wonderful. Thank you!

No translation needed..

I should have said that

Cheers!

This is a great new feature since most of us probably already have downloaded sfs files that we want to install.

Unfortunately, the "Sfs_grabber" feature doesn't work on a new full hd installation of luci-238. My installation is on sdb7 and I have tried to drag several sfs files from sdb3 to install them. The dialogue box goes away when OK is selected, however nothing happens. The files I tried are the OOO file shown and luci_devx_238.sfs.

Note the output when I tried to install a sfs with a console. I had used "Sfs get" to install Bibletime before trying to use the new "Sfs_grabber" feature. This may be a clue to the problem.

Code: Select all

# sfs_installation.sh  /mnt/sdb3/luci_devx_238.sfs        
http://ftp.cc.uoc.gr/mirrors/linux/puppylinux/pet-packages-lucid/Bibletime_lucid-2.7.2a.sfs
Bibletime_lucid-2.7.2a.sfs
Bibletime_lucid-2.7.2a
# killall: Xdialog: no process killed

It did work fine on a fresh frugal installation of luci-238.

Cheers,
Jim

Thanks for testing Jim

I'll look into it pronto.

Cheers

later...

Ok, Jim did a fresh full of luci-238 in a spare ext3 I had just for this purpose

I downloaded Bible Time from the aarnet mirror by copy/pasting the link in the sfs_grabber gui. It worked flawlessly.

I dragged the devx from sda7 to the sfs_grabber gui. It worked flawlessly.

I'll try from a prompt something else..

Code: Select all

# sfs_installation.sh /mnt/sda5/Acrobat_Reader-9.3.3-Lucid.sfs
/mnt/sda5/Acrobat_Reader-9.3.3-Lucid.sfs

Ok, that worked for a local file ... I'm a bit worried here

.. why does it fail for you?

Thanks again for testing.

Cheers

___________________________________________

Some things to look for....

open /tmp in rox

*the sfs goes to /tmp
*it gets converted to a directory, you should see that in /tmp
*that directory gets tarred up, you should see that happen in /tmp
*that tarball is converted to a pet.

EDIT!
Thanks for your clue!!!! the /file generated by quickpet isn't removed!!!!!

After receiving your message, I rebooted and tried again, it worked perfectly, installing these applications: luci_devx_238, LibreOffice_3.3.0beta2_sfs4, and java_jre-6u22-Lucid-sfs4. I had just done a fresh full hd installation of Luci-238 to test your Sfs_grabber and had not rebooted the installation. Apparently, it has to be rebooted to save some files.

Thank you for the updated Quickpet. With that capability, I may make more use of full hd installations. The handling of sfs files, to me, is the largest advantage of a frugal installation. Now you've eliminated that problem.

Cheers,
Jim

01micko · #118 Post by **01micko** » Mon 22 Nov 2010, 21:50

Jim, there was a bug, thanks for bringing it to my attention, by rebooting you flushed /tmp. There was a stale file in /tmp that sfs_installation.sh uses. That is now eliminated as soon as sfs_installation.sh has the data it needs.

I just tested with vlc from the quickpet gui, then installed the kernel source which I had locally, working properly now. It would have been an apparent bug in all forms of installation too, maybe with different, even worse consequences!

New Quickpet 4rc3 is in the main post.

No translation changes.

Cheers

Installed amarok-1-4-lucid.sfs using Quickpet v4rc3. It's an older version of amarok, but still works great.
Thanks,
Jim

Success, it detects and finds the right driver for my video card!!!!!!!!
However, you knew there was going to be one.

If I click on the Nvidia download button, it tries to download driver but, I get message "your package was not found in data base"
If I go to the driver tab and click on Nvidia, I can select driver and download works.

01micko,
I note that you have included trio's great little PetMakerPlus and SFS installer in Quickpet. Had not noticed those before. I had a serious problem with PetMakerPlus on my full hd installation of luci-237. I started an installation of a sfs using PetMakerPlus and left my computer for a few hours. When I returned, it had wiped two partitions clean, which did cause some data loss as all data was not backed up.

I don't know if luci or PetMakerPlus was at fault. I do know that the problem happened when both were in use. I still use PetMakerPlus, however, I do not trust it for sfs installations to a full hd installation. PetMakerPlus was generated for the 4 series and may need some serious update to be safely used with 5. SFS installer, also for the 4 series, is redundant with your superb SFS_grabber.

Just a caution,
Jim

Fixed in rc6 (hopefully)

Ah,, so it's trio's bug! I did the same thing in early development of the sfs grab conversion.. I have done it fail safe, a complete rewrite so there is NO danger of that happening... it does not mount any loop devices, just expands and unpacks the sfs, compresses then converts to a pet. Petmaker plus is removed in rc6

Keep the testing going guys!

Cheers

Quickpet 4rc6 is up.
