TCE Corepure64 / Re: init runs dbus-launch when user runs yad!?

« Last post by Juanito on October 15, 2019, 10:58:45 PM »

This is the first time I've seen dbus started in such a way - apps that use dbus to start other stuff (gnome-session, pulseaudio) need dbus to be started first.

It seems to be yad that is starting dbus, possibly to make atk available?

dep file adjusted - thanks for reporting this.

A recompilation would be better, so that the outdated libffi5 could be eliminated.

Alternately, you could compile the latest version, which would allow dropping libffi5, gtk2 and gnome-icon-theme.

You can set the copy2fs flag with the apps gui to copy extensions to ram at the next boot.

Hi GNUser
Maybe  dmesg  or  syslog  can catch who's doing it. Maybe bump up the log level first.

Processes whose parent has exited are reparented to init by the kernel. So children of init are in fact not normally directly started by that process.

That being the case, init is probably innocent here: it most likely is inheriting dbus-launch by whatever it is that triggered it.

So my real, more general, question is this: What starts dbus-launch and when/why?

Hello:

... correct.
... Thunar depends directly on libffi5 ...

So I guess it's either adding libffi5 to Thunar's .dep file or compiling a new version against libffi-dev.tcz.

Modding the .dep file is surely easier but ...
Would a 2019 compilation have any advantage over the current 2014 version?

Cheers,

MM

Hi AndresC2
Does installing  ipv6-KERNEL.tcz  help?

This was reported before:

Hi madmax

.... Unless I am mistaken, the currently available version of Thunar (from 2014) was compiled against libffi5.tcz, which would be the reason for the problem. ...

You are correct. I'm guessing Thunar depends directly on libffi5 while other dependencies (glib2) of the extension depend on libffi.

TCE Talk / Thunar wont start / work ---> dependency issue

Hello:

My old and rarely accessed TC 8.1 installation went south so I decided to re-install using 10.1.
Yes, I had an image of the 1.0Gb SD card where it lived somewhere but ...

In any case, one of the first issues I have (there are a few more) is that after installing Thunar, it refused to start.

It installed correctly as far as I could see (deps seem OK) but it refused to start whether it is from the bar, menu or command line.

Code: [Select]

c@box:~$ thunar
thunar: error while loading shared libraries: libffi.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
tc@box:~$

So looked for and I installed libffi5.tcz and that was it.

Code: [Select]

TCE Talk / iptables.tcz Version: 1.8.2

« Last post by AndresC2 on October 15, 2019, 03:34:51 PM »

Hi 

I have tinycore-10.1 and installed iptables.tcz Version: 1.8.2

iptables show this:

Code: [Select]

sudo /usr/local/sbin/basic-firewall
modprobe: can't load module nf_conntrack (kernel.tclocal/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack.ko.gz): unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter
modprobe: can't load module nf_conntrack (kernel.tclocal/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack.ko.gz): unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter
iptables v1.8.2 (legacy): can't initialize iptables table `nat': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?)
Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.
iptables v1.8.2 (legacy): Couldn't load match `state':No such file or directory
and later lost internet connection.

thanks.
