Missing extensions in 5.0

[fuegos]

Oh sorry... There is rdesktop v1.80 tar.gz available on their website:

http://www.rdesktop.org/#download

 

[Juanito]

no, send a personal message to the maintainers of the rdesktop extension in tinycore 

[jls]

getlocale?

Sorry guys I'm just starting my Linux adventure and i though that tar.gz's can be compiled to work on any distro...

I have contacted the creators and waiting for the response now...

[Juanito]

the tar.gz source can be compiled on tinycore and you are of course more than welcome to do so

If i only knew how to do that i would surely go for it...

You can check out the extensions section of the wiki

Hi TinyCoreTeam,

with tc 5.x on an iMac I tried some of the extensions of the repository and all are working fine.

One exception:   flburn.tcz , which worked fine until  tc 4.7.7, but now repeatedly shows 'failed' in the AppsBrowser.

Thanks

[Juanito]

the md5sum for flburn checks out OK on the server - what happens if you download it directly?

Hi juanito,

with a fresh burned tc 5.0.2 CD flburn download works and md5sum is correct too.

But: after download it does not appear in the wbar,
it does not appear in the desktop menu
and it can not be started in the terminal.
(tried on an acer travelmate)

However: I have a tc installation that I had created with 4.7.7 (MacMini ext. HDD)
and added some extensions and also flburn.
I started it with a fresh burned tc 5.0.2 CD and it worked perfectly.

Probably it is the flburn.tcz of the tc 5.x repository that does not work.

the problem was that the dep file listed libfltk-1.1.10, rather than fltk-1.1.10 - dep file corrected, thanks for reporting this.

Hi Tinycore Team,

thought I'd post here as the subject seems appropriate.
Is Abiword.tcz avainlable for 5x?
I didn't see it in the list.
I could try 4x tcz on 5xCore.
Or boot the 4x..
Cheers.

[Juanito]

Please go ahead and try abiword from tc-4.x in tc-5.x and let us know how you get on.

Hi loggedin
To satisfy missing dependencies for abiword you will also need to fetch the following extensions from 4x:

Code: [Select]

cracklib.tcz
libart.tcz
libgnomecanvas.tcz
libgnomecups.tcz
libgnomeprint.tcz
libgnomeprintui.tcz
Linux-PAM.tcz
wv.tczDon't forget to fetch their dependency files.
You will need to change  eglibc_gconv.tcz  to  glibc_gconv.tcz  in the abiword dependency file.
To fetch abiword:

Code: [Select]

wget http://www.tinycorelinux.net/4.x/x86/tcz/abiword.tcz
wget http://www.tinycorelinux.net/4.x/x86/tcz/abiword.tcz.depRepeat for the missing dependencies. Hope I didn't miss anything, good luck.

Hello TC Team,

since the last major version change from 4.7.7 to 5.0 some extensions do not work any longer, mainly KeePassX

So I am pinned down to  4.7.7 only for keepassx.tcz

Can somebody please update and move it to the new repository? That would be great!

greetings
