UExtract-4.2

[amigo]

Some recent RPM's are using the 7z signature, instead of xz's.

From exploderpm:
# VERSION 0.3 Gilbert Ashley <amigo@ibiblio.org>
# Added support for newer fedora rpm archives which use 7z instead of xz
# Thanks to Jakub Szefer for finding and reporting this problem

The relative decompress command is:
"]"*|?"7z"*) dd if="$pkg" ibs=$o skip=1 2>/dev/null | unxz | cpio --quiet -ivdm ;;

The still older signature for lzma(2) was:
fda8a
echo -en '\0fd\037\07a\058\05a\000

Only the latest rpm2cpio may have this support and I am unsure whether busybox rpm2cpio does that

I retested uextract after rebooting my machine and it worked
fine this time.

I think I must have damaged something when I tried to compile the
latest gimp 2.8.22

And what about adding Zstandard for .zst extensions, we are using it in T2 and it's fast and small.

Zstandard is a real-time compression algorithm, providing high compression ratios. It offers a very wide range of compression / speed trade-off, while being backed by a very fast decoder. It also offers a special mode for small data, called dictionary compression, and can also create dictionaries from a sample set.

Hey Scsijon

I've already added it (along with Lizard), will be in v3.29.

[later]

Version 3.29:
- removed 'rpm2cpio+(un)xz+cpio' method, because I haven't seen a single RPM that could be extracted using this routine
- skips zero-byte files automatically
- new formats/extensions:

• .liz (Lizard Compressed File) [lizard]
• .zst (Zstandard Compressed File) [zstd]

First post updated!

Greetings!

[scsijon]

And many thank you's, I shall download and test.

EDIT: OOPS, my bad, forgot to tell you it also has a working .tzst extension (equals .tar.zst) as well as the normal zst, sorry.

[SFR]

No worries, here you go:

Version 3.30:
- new formats/extensions:

• .tar.zst, .tzst (Zstandard Compressed Tar Archive) [zstd+tar]

First post updated.

Greetings!

SFR,

Been a long time since I said it, but UExtract is the very....and I mean very....first thing I put into any pup and/or pup-related build if it doesn't already have it. Thank you for this.....I pretty much can't live without it. I get annoyed when I am in "other, big" linux distros and I don't have UExtract. So, I try to install it in those too, after extracting it, moving some things around directory-wise, then chrooting it all, sometimes it works great At a minimum, in the puppy world, this utility should be a standard install in all Woof-CE & woof builds. It's just great. Again, thanks so much.

I totally agree!
Thank you very much SFR!!

Bonjour,
Great program: thanks! (shouldn't it be the single default Puppy program of this type?)
French translation pet as attached file.
Just a little question: why two different "locale" directories for mo files, one inside the usual mo files directory with symbolic links ponting to a UExtract roxapp "locale" directory?

Cordialement.

[don570]

Just a little question: why two different "locale" directories for mo files,

Perhaps it's because a different program is run when uextract is first installed.
It's located in /usr/local/apps/

I think it's the AppRun file.

Hello don570,

I think it's the AppRun file.

Yes, I see:

Code: Select all

export TEXTDOMAINDIR="${MYPATH}/locale"

... inside the rox apps directory /usr/local/apps/UExtract/AppRun. Surely fully justified but I currently do not understand exactly why (just for my very small "coding" knowledge!)

Cordialement.

[don570]

I believe there's a pinstall.sh script that is run on install and
it is connected to the AppRun file somehow.

It is done that way to make the pop up window at the end of install procedure 'Do you want a Desktop icon?'

I'm not sure how it's done but read the last few lines of the pinstall.sh file
since they are the lines that make the pop up window.
I copied them and put them in my right click utility.

but I currently do not understand exactly why

It's portable that way. You can move the entire /usr/local/apps/UExtract AppDir elsewhere and it still will be working correctly.
IIRC I put the symlinks in /usr/share/locale only to make them visible to MoManager.

Thanks for the translation!

Version 3.32:
- added French translation (thanks to Argolance)

OK, thanks!

A minor thing, but is the title in the window border still showing as 3.31?

Code: Select all

Thanks Oscar, it's fixed now.

Remains a top 10 program for me. - Thanks again....

[don570]

I made a debian package which was very easy...
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 869#970869

I noticed when using it that there was no 'Debian' folder to hold the control
file and scripts .
