slackware 13.37 tools "for the official slackware"
Posted: Wed 13 Jul 2011, 13:37
if you have slackware 13.37 installed
lite tools for the official slackware 13.37 but thinking in puppy terms lite and fast
here is something I wrote for the official slackware 13.37
it should not be used on txz_pup because the backend base is NOT compatible with slackware 13.37 packages[/size]
the reason I wrote this is I am writing code for my slackware 13.37 box hard drive install
so everything I do will be compatible with the official slackware distro
a lot of fun making small apps for the official version of slackware
at the same time thinking about the future work I do on puppy to make it compatible on both
BTW if the backend of txz pup was updated to 13.37 this would work perfectly because
I developed it on puppy and tested it on slackware
*this would probably work perfectly for Micko and his puplet
fast ,fast fast and lite
the first time it runs it builds all the indexes so it takes a minute extra then each new run its very fast this is just to show that package management could be kept simple I wrote this in just a few hours and using unconverted official packages from their websites
this could be done for any official distro just using the formatting of the site index
you could even build the distro from packages this way with no smoke or mirrors
with the current trend to use all other packages from other distros why not go the extra mile and maintain a package standard that keeps things simple
http://www.puppy2.org/slaxer/package_se ... 4_SLXR.tgz
dependency Xdialog
http://www.puppy2.org/slaxer/Xdialog-2. ... 3_SLXR.txz
*not included in this post but the work is already done *I have a re write of package tools also and scripts to regenerate installed packages
dependency checking click on package to install ,package splitting
if you want a lite install of slackware or make puppy use official slackware packages
directly without conversions
