paxutils
« on: July 28, 2016, 10:31:10 AM »
Hello everyone!
I have used tinycore and microcore for a long time (since version 2.x), but I'm new in this forum.
I'm using microcore in a virtual machine to help me in my software development tests and now I need the scanelf utility, which is provided by the paxutils package.
I cannot find this package for TL. Is there any?
Thanks for the help and for the great work.

Perhaps you could submit a paxutils extension to the repo  ;)

Hi,

I installed pax-utils to use lddtree but it's not working. The extension defines no dependency, but lddtree is a python script so I think the extension should have python(3.x) as a dependency.
My problem is that even if I manually install python (or python3.5) I have an error with lddtree because python cannot find the elftools module.

Can you help me?

Regards

There are several issues with this extension:

* the first line of lddtree should read !/usr/local/bin/python
* lddtree depends on pyelftools not present in the repo
* lddtree depends on python, but the extension does not have a dep file

Since the rest of the utilities in the extension work without python/pyelftools, perhaps a suitable comment could be added to the info file?
