Hey, no ones pull'in yer leg to run contributed pkgs. You don't like the setup -- Move On DA!

Daleb · #92 Post by **Daleb** » Fri 22 Jan 2016, 23:37

another strange reply ?? what setup ??

How can anyone determine the setup without a yes or no reply if the files are checked ??

Semme · #93 Post by **Semme** » Sat 23 Jan 2016, 00:08

I'm reasonably confident JB was insinuating a NO -- They're NOT scanned.

On the other side of the coin, there's nothing stop'in you from handling that task.

Anyway you slice it, the simple act of being online assumes some level of risk.

What does that have to do with the question of are forum users contributed Packages checked for malicious files???

1...... Yes - they are checked for malicious content and code before being made public for others to use.

2...... No - forum users are free to infect other forum users until someone notices.

anything other than a yes or no based answer is illogical that anyone could make a decision from , you can't make an informed decision without being informed.

Dbl removed.

you still can't make an informed decision on something that is maybe or maybe not be being insinuated and the strange cryptic reply and avoidance or a simple yes or no answer looks dishonest as if something is purposely being hidden.

I've instaled wine for fatdog64 v701 locate here:
wine-1.7.39-v2.1.sfs

I ran regedit, and I noticed that under:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Environment

that the PATH environment variable isn't set.
https://www.winehq.org/docs/wineusr-gui ... -variables

This means for instance if I type:
wine wineconsole

that wine won't be able to find the wineconsole, and therefore throw an error.

The minimum path variable is:

Code: Select all

%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem

http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch000549.htm

according to computerhope. However, the last path I don't recognize. I wonder what is in:

Code: Select all

%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem

exiftool 9.76 (package rev. 2). Exiftool needs perl, which is included in the Fatdog64 devx SFS. Fotoxx uses exiftool to show JPEG comments (menu Info>View Info). Findnrun 2.0 (Filmstrip plugin) uses exiftool to search inside image captions. Package includes ROXapp and ROX right-click menu entry for JPEG files. Install from package manager.

As I'm writing this I still don't see the uploaded file on biblio. It may take a few hours to show up...

Mkvtoolnix contains tools to create, alter and inspect Matroska files .
mkvtoolnix-7.9.0-700-wxw.sfs : with GUI based on wxwidgets .
md5sum : 62b05b0c2a281ff053ae82d8d8cac39c
When mkvinfo starts there is a warning due to the fact that libpng-1.6 doesn't like sRGB profile . No harm .
mkvtoolnix-8.8.0-700-qt5.sfs : with GUI based on Qt5 .
md5sum : 4fa5593ff68ef0d68cf7aa11824a2144
With qt5-5.4.1 it works as is . But if you prefer qt5-5.3.2 , it needs libicu package from the repo.

wbem_contents.txt.gz

What do I do with this file? For that matter what type of file is it? And what is it for? Was it an answer to my wine question?

edit: I see that if I delete the txt part of the file name than I can decompress it. However, all it is is a list of files. I'm not sure what to do with the list.

edit2 I found out that the system32\wbem has to do with Winodws WMI
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/lib ... 80229.aspx

which is anadministrative tool.

QupZilla version 1.8.9 in both package and sfs.
It does require Qt4.8.5 available below.

Thanks. I didn't know QupZilla. In the past I've used QtWeb as a browser alternative. Now QupZilla seems more polished, more actively developed, and with more features.

doxygen 1.8.7 - generate documentation from annotated sources. Install from package manager.

fish shell 2.2.0 - fish is a smart and user-friendly command line shell. Install from package manager.

Fish Shell Micro Review

I've been using fish shell for about two weeks as my secondary shell and - for interactive use - I really like it better than bash and zsh.

Main strengths to me: awesome command-line completion; syntax highlighting; git integration; all advanced features work out of the box (zero conf or nearly so). And if you still want to configure fish, as an alternative to file-based configuration there's also a web-based configuration GUI, but you need to load python to use it (python is included in Fatdog64's devx.sfs or as a separate package through gslapt). Just run:
# python /usr/share/fish/tools/web_config/webconfig.py
Note that fish changes a few shell idioms of muscle memory, so start fish and type 'help' for a 5-minute read that unveils all the important points (I haven't felt the need for more information so far). Main gotchas:

Code: Select all

sh                        fish
--                        ----
`ls`                      (ls)
$(ls)                     (ls)
ls /tmp && date           ls /tmp; and date
ls /abc || date           ls /abc; or date
name=ls                   set name ls
$name   #to run ls        eval name   # to run ls

findnrun 2.1.0 - a progressive finder. Fatdog64 binds key Alt+F3 to findnrun. Install from package manager.

Gpptp 2.0 VPN and the Quick-VPN tray app for Fatdog64. These includes the latest version of the underlying "pptp" program.

I've compiled the Quick-vpn_tray app for FD64. This will create a tray app for those that use the same VPN connection all the time. It runs at startup, and there is a readme in /root/MyApps/Quick-VPN

Download and remove the ".gz" extension for the install packages. I had to rename them to upload.

Gpptp creates an entry in "Networking", and puts a Gpptp.desktop in /usr/share/applications that can be dropped on the desktop. Edit the item to remove the ".desktop" extension.

Read the README in /etc/ppp/gpptp for instructions on usage.

Lua 5.1.5 is a powerful, fast, lightweight, embeddable scripting language. This package can be installed alongside Lua 5.2.x, which comes in the devx. Install from package manager. Repackaged from Arch Linux. See note below.
