Where is the listing of all Core packages?
« on: May 21, 2012, 01:53:45 AM »
I wanted to install SSH to my Core installation. I issued

Code: [Select]
tcs-load -wi ssh.tcz

which return an error that no such TCZ package exists.

  • How do I know the EXACT names of the packages beforehand? Is there any such listing anywhere?
  • Can I build my own TCZ package if one does not exist?

Use the terminal command "ab"

Yes, please see the extensions section of the wiki

..and I guess you're looking for openssh.tcz

When I search for the package using the search keyword as 'ssh', other two modules are listed but not 'openssh'.

Sorry, when I "Searched" using 'ssh', 2 packages were listed, but using the "Keywords" options, 11 packages were listed.

What is the difference between 'ab' options:

  • Search
  • Provides
  • Keyword

    Search looks for extension names
    Provides looks for files contained in extensions
    Keyword looks for tags the extension maker put in the info file

    http://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/4.x/x86/tcz/info.lst
    has extension names within it

    Probably the command line tool 'ab' queries this file or files like this.
