Puppizard 008
Aitch referred me here because I was looking for a way to update Claws-mail in Fluppy 013.
What an amazing piece of coding!
Has anyone tested Claws-mail with Puppizard?
Will the new version overwrite all of the config files and archived E-mails or leave them intact?

It should be very easy to write a build script, as you see. I made it very simple to write new build scripts.
Once I'm done with the Puppizard port of the kernel build script, I'll do more
EDIT: here's a beta ... loks simple, doesn't it? Just imagine - this could be the way the 5.3 kernel is built. 99% fail-safe and upgradeable!

I did something similar for generic packages called Pcompile
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=41758
it uses gtkdialog, but some of the utilities may be useful?

Uploaded a new, much improved version. The GUI is the same as in 004, but buildpkg is much more complete and powerful now.
I also made build scripts for many applications, they should be very useful.

In addition to the link to your Blog, could you consider a link to Page 1 of this thread in your Sig?

It would be nice to be able to right-click on it and open as a new Tab or Window - especially as the thread grows longer ....

I like the idea of source packages
but I also am old school in maintaining package standards that have been established
by the founders of linux
I have conversion tools to convert all pet packages into correctly formatted slackware packages
you had just addeded xz pet packages to possible pet packages to choose from
*TXZ pup was built using all xz compressed packages but maintaining slackwares official package standard
the reason I am posting is scottman had some trouble installing an xz commpressed pet that you made due to the package management incompatability between
puppy versions
could you provide a link to one of your xz compressed pets
I will add that to my pet2slack tool so all pets will be able to be converted to a standard slackware package format for the linux community
thanks and good luck on your project it looks interesting

Do I understand correctly that your goal is to be able to convert everything made available to various other PET-friendly Puppy versions to your Slackware-based Puppy?
Kinda of like a distro-surfing WOOF which picks from various repos and converts apps to Puppy - but in is case it surfs the repos of various Puppies?
Or am I missing the intended goal, please?
We have Fluppy 013 on 4 laptops and two Netbooks but I am running dpup 009 on this laptop - for lack of time to back up and port to Fluppy. I was looking at Puppizard as a way for a user to add or update apps (e.g. Claws, Midori, etc) without requiring the intervention of devs.
WDYT?

edocDo I understand correctly that your goal is to be able to convert everything made available to various other PET-friendly Puppy versions to your Slackware-based Puppy?
the goal here is a package that is known and understood by the largest possible group of linux users one is a slackware package the other is a debian package
I didnt invent these formats they are linux standards
I am taking action to convert pets to the official slackware format
*maybe someone else will convert pets to the debian package format
the goal is others outside the puppy community could try some of our packagesOr am I missing the intended goal, please?
and other package making building installing tools will accept the packages
so that all work done advances the linux community in general

Excellent!
So everything within Puppy is translated to a Puppy-Slackware repository.
Then each of the Puppies may tap that repo, via Puppizard (or another app).
Based on your work anything in Slackware could be added to your repo - and again, Puppizard (or another app) could bring that out to a specific Puppy.
So, there would be three common repositories for Puppy?
1. Everything in the Puppy-Slackware repo.
2. Everything converted for any Puppy sub-distro.
3. Hints, tips, and tricks. (Properly labeled for version, dependencies, and hardware.)
This would not preclude a specific Puppy sub-distro from maintaining a copy of the contents of #2 in a separate area, e.g. Puppeee PetStore, t would just make it a high priority that any local updates be copied to the central repository.
Do I have that all correct, please?

I just found out the Libreoffice build script was great, except one thing - the Libreoffice menu entries are weird and the categories are not recognized properly.
I must note that Libreoffice 4.3.1 is very very very snappy here: it's a N450 netbook running 5.2.5 with 2.6.32.42 (x86_64), with E17 and Opera. I think it could be nice to have a puplet with the combination of these.
EDIT: forgot to mention - the build script doesn't compile Libreoffice, since that would take ages and lots of build dependencies, so it re-packages the RPM release.

I'm a little confused by your description of LibreOffice, which I have been hoping to get for Fluppy 013 - it has some oddities in Puppy but is generally functional?

Drake is the problem - I guess its freetype version is too old, too new or configured differently than the way it is on the distros E17 is developed and tested on.
It builds just fine on all Lucid versions and I want to test it with dpup too.
And edoc - the build script re-packages the binary distribution of Libreoffice. It downloads the official RPMs and creates a "lite" Libreoffice with just Writer, Calc and Impress: a SFS made from the package is about 110 MB if I remember right.
Yesterday I fixed the script and made it release quality. I guess I'll do more testing and upload it on this weekend.
The script fixes the menu categories and that's the only tweak it does, since Libreoffice works great on Puppy when installed from the official packages.

Yep! There are many new build scripts, for pretty much the whole Puppy desktop.
I built everything on the new dpup I'm working on and these packages seem to be very good.
Here's a full list of what we've got so far:

I tried to write one for Webkit, which leads the way for Midori/Chromium/whatever, but decided to give up on it when it failed to build on Lucid.
Now I'm working on a brand new dpup and I'm not gonna upload it as long as it's in alpha quality, in terms of 5.x development.
I just have to fix the menu entries and fix a small bug with CUPS, then the lights go green again and I'm gonna upload this baby
As a small teaser, the idea is a dpup with the 2.6.32.x kernel (maybe with a 64-bit flavor too) and two desktops, JWM and E17, with many minimalistic and lightweight apps (DeaDBeeF, Transmission 1.x, Opera, Zathura, ...), no office apps and separate SFSs for stuff like LibreOffice.
The concept is simple: have the smallest and fastest application, preferably a minimalistic one, for each task. For intensive tasks (like document writing), there won't be any lightweight application simply because lightweight alternatives to the "big guys" are pretty useless and because they're used very rarely, if at all.
At the moment what I have is a fully working dpup with a great-looking E17, the artwork from Puppy Squeeze and many stuff we had back then. It's a total revival.
The things I'm missing at the moment are the package repository I'm working on, a recompiled E17 and some menu icons that need to be fixed.
Once it's ready, I'll write more scripts. I just need a good base to work on

Sure sounds like good fun!
A "small bug" in CUPS is an oxymoron in my experience ...
I avoid anything from google ... if Claws-mail would play-nicely for multiple accounts I would be happy with it and Midori vs Opera.
Why Opera versus Seamonkey ... or Claws/Midori?
I will have to read-up on E17, that one completely got by me.
BTW: I am still using dpup 009 on this laptop!
Standing by ...
A "small bug" in CUPS is an oxymoron in my experience ...
I avoid anything from google ... if Claws-mail would play-nicely for multiple accounts I would be happy with it and Midori vs Opera.
Why Opera versus Seamonkey ... or Claws/Midori?
I will have to read-up on E17, that one completely got by me.
BTW: I am still using dpup 009 on this laptop!

1/ like a set of qt apps?Iguleder wrote:
The concept is simple: have the smallest and fastest application, preferably a minimalistic one, for each task. ..
The things I'm missing at the moment are the package repository I'm working on, a recompiled E17 and some menu icons that need to be fixed.
2/ something like puplite 6 is doing?
