PostPosted: Fri 27 Aug 2010, 11:27    Post subject:  various non-free download scripts
Subject description: pet to follow		  
In case anyone wants to build a puplet with easier acces to non-free applications, I am trying to collect all of the download+install scripts in one location.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_proprietary_software_for_Linux
Acroread - not yet supported - need permalink
Google-* - not yet supported - need permalinks
Opera - not yet supported - need permalink
Foxit - not yet supported - need permalink
RealPlayer - not yet supported - need permalink

Skype
dowload skype and set it up as a rox app dir in current directory
Code:
#!/bin/sh
wget -c http://download.skype.com/linux/skype_static-2.1.0.81.tar.bz2
tar -xf skype_static-2.1.0.81.tar.bz2
mv skype_static-2.1.0.81 skype
mv skype/skype skype/AppRun
ln -sf icons/SkypeBlue_48x48.png skype/.DirIcon


Flash
select a version of flashplayer to install (and mask it as latest version if needed)
Code:
#!/bin/sh
PREFIX=/usr
PLUGINDIR=$PREFIX/lib/mozilla/plugins
mkdir -p $PLUGINDIR
NEWVER="10.1 r"
case $1 in
--help)echo "   options are:
7  for smallest size and dependencies,
9  for medium size and fewer dependencies
10 for latest version
f  fix existing
   no options will bring up an xdialog"
;;

#download all flash7 & fake latest as 10.1 r9
7)wget -c http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/installers/archive/fp7_archive.zip

cat libflashplayer.so |sed -e "s/$VER/10.1 r99/g" >$PLUGINDIR/libflashplayer.so
rm -f libflashplayer.so install_flash_player_9.tar.gz

while [ "${#NEWVER}" -lt "${#VER}" ]
do
NEWVER=${NEWVER}9
done
cat /tmp/flash |sed -e "s/$VER/$NEWVER/g" >$FLASHLOC
rm -f /tmp/flash
Xdialog --no-buttons --infobox "flash fixed - upgrade faked" 0 0 5000

adobe reader stuff from tiny core is here:
http://tinycorelinux.com/forum/index.php?topic=3129.msg16157#msg16157

and RealPlayer
http://tinycorelinux.com/forum/index.php?topic=3212.msg16683#msg16683

foxit reader is a much better choice unless you have a very nuanced pdf file - its only about 1mb or so and the script on that one should be pretty easy since it is only a single executable if I recall correctly.
