TCE Bugs / Re: TC 6.0, gparted won't run - missing libxcb-dri3.so.o

« Last post by gerald_clark on Today at 08:00:47 PM »

The provides tab in Apps will show you where the missing lib is to be found, but since it is already a dep, I suspect you need to use Apps to update deps and then fetch missing deps.

TCE Bugs / TC 6.0, gparted won't run - missing libxcb-dri3.so.o

« Last post by ClydeM on Today at 07:23:18 PM »

Sorry to be a newbie. Just started with TC 6.0 (not Plus) CD, want to use gparted to view my various disks/partitions, so used Appbrowser to "Download + Load" gparted.tcz, then opened terminal to sudo gparted and get this error:

/usr/local/shin/gparted in: error while loading shared libraries: libxcb-dri3.so.o: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Is there another app package I can install that will get me this missing lib? Failing that, how do I get that file from wherever it might exist on the Internet to the proper directory in my running TC 6.0 live CD?

Thanks!

General TC Talk / how to get md5sum for Core Plus ISO?

« Last post by ClydeM on Today at 03:16:07 PM »

I'm having trouble burning my download of CorePlus-current.iso, so I suspect the download is corrupt. Therefore, I want to match my download to a published md5sum. But it seems the only place I can download the ISO from is the website's html page. Where can I get an md5sum for the download?

p.s. Why is there such an obsession with captcha and other verification schemes in this forum? I have to recertify that I'm human here more than on most .gov sites...

Extension requests / Re: 32-bit graphics stack update?

« Last post by nick65go on Today at 11:44:49 AM »

For me, the new firmware-radeon.tcz has no negative/positive difference. Because the only file I need from tcz is R520_cp.bin which is the same size 2K and same calendar date 2014-01-02. The Xorg "works" with or without the binary blob.

Without firmware, "dmesg" shows:

Hmm, the news are that a dependency is missing! Of course I could load it manually with tce-load -i  elfutils.tcz

TCE Bugs / Re: Missing dependency - libxcb-util.tcz - Can't install Enlightenment

By that, do you mean that the files and libraries in libxcb-util were merged into the current libxcb.tcz package?

Yes

That being said, I think packages should only be included in the repository if they've been tested as installable and working. Including old, broken packages just annoys people.

Agreed, and that's what we try to do...

TCE Bugs / Re: Missing dependency - libxcb-util.tcz - Can't install Enlightenment

If we're speaking of libxcb-util.so, this is in the libxcb extension, so only the relevant dep file(s) would need adjusting.

By that, do you mean that the files and libraries in libxcb-util were merged into the current libxcb.tcz package?

I tried transplanting some packages from Core 5.x and 4.x into my system, but I got frustrated and couldn't to get it to work yet. There are quite a few other missing packages and a version conflict with libgcrypt (It expects the one from Core 5.x). I'm really not a fan of mixing package versions, so I'll try building from source against the current Core 6.x libraries and see if I can create a working tcz package.

That being said, I think packages should only be included in the repository if they've been tested as installable and working. Including old, broken packages just annoys people.

Release Candidate Testing / Re: Core v6.1rc3

« Last post by Juanito on Today at 04:20:07 AM »

  works almost fine. Some older extensions (eg. keepassx.tcz) are not starting,
  Some actual extensions (gedit.tcz) are not starting

gedit dep file updated so it works in tc-6.x

keepassx is from tc-4.x, but if you start it from a terminal prompt, you will probably see an error messages that explains why it does not work in tc-6.x
