Wary Puppy 0.9.6 (096) feedback

[Béèm]

another sneaky report
Pidgin (2.7.1-lucid-i486) doesn't work. Problems with dbus I think.

Code: Select all

# pidgin
process 23521: D-Bus library appears to be incorrectly set up; failed to read machine uuid: Failed to open "/var/lib/dbus/machine-id": No such file or directory
See the manual page for dbus-uuidgen to correct this issue.
  D-Bus not built with -rdynamic so unable to print a backtrace
Aborted
# 

As pidgin complained about libdbus-glib I installed it.
Then there was a complaint about libgtkspell and installed it also.
Maybe those aren't the correct ones for Wary.

Also as glibc is still at 2.10.1, trinity-KDE will not work as reported before.
Trinity needs glib 2.12.1

Ttuuxxx compiled Pidgin for Wary, announced earlier in this forum thread.

In Wary 097 it is also available in the PPM.

Ttuuxxx spoke about it on page one, but didn't make the pet available.
Using a minimal save file, I don't download pet's through the PPM.
I wish I could download them to some directory without installing, so I can convert them to sfs.
I looked in the pet_packages_wary directory of ibiblio, but this pidgin isn't in there.

I see the entry for pidgin in the packages-puppy-wary5-official file, but it doesn't give me a clue where physically it is.

HTH.

...there is also an NLS pkg on that site.

Oh yes, you also need to install gtkspell:

...oh, James, I didn't see your post!

Yeah, I will need to delete the 'puppylinux/pet_packages-wary' directory as it is no longer used. Causes confusion.

Oh yes, please delete. It is confusing.
Saw your announcement for Wary 098 already.
