Strategy is already documented here:
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html

No need to reinvent the wheel ;)


... and that document says that libs should be at "/lib" and "/usr/lib"!

So now you are talking business...

What about a lib which is used by apps and is already installed on "/usrlib"?
There's no problem for any extension to take advantage of libs in the base

And what about a lib which is used by several apps, how it should be placed on "/usr/local/lib/"?
You quote the needed lib extension in your apps dep file and it will use the lib in question automatically (as long as you compiled against the required -dev extension).

..and this is getting seriously off-thread

One test would be to use the tcz version of flash and firefox/opera, and that would tell if it is an issue specific to the scm format.  Though I don't believe the issues of those videos has anything to do with the fact the browser and flash are scms.

New getflash11.tcz gets error on loading.

Hi Yleisajattelija
Try downloading  getFlash11.tcz  again, preferably from  repo.tinycorlinux.net. There was a minor problem
when roberts fixed it. See:
http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,14298.msg83185.html#msg83185

TC 4.7.3 loaded from repo.tinycorelinux.com

firefox 18.0

getflash11 load normally

Flash working with youtube, but not playing yle areena.

"Firefox -> Help -> Troubleshooting Information -> Profile Directory -> Open Directory"  does not open profiles directory, so there is something wrong with profiles settings.

Edit: lot of warnings to firefox error console, impossible to say, which are meaningful

Just did a check for updates against repo.tinycorelinux.net which showed getFlash11.tcz to be updated. Got update failed though.

Well, I'm running 4.7.3 and I still get an error when I try to download the updated getFlash11.tcz. Unfortunately it's the only extension I have that currently needs updating so I can't be sure there's not something else wrong.

edit: Switched mirrors a few days ago when I updated to 4.7.5 and was able to successfully download getFlash11.tcz.

Flashplayer needs HAL!


http://forums.adobe.com/message/4797322


Ubuntu has libhal1 -package, which seems to be missing on tc.

Anyone knows that lib?

Edit: http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?topic=12675.0

libhal1 included hal.tcz and not working for me, too. But now key directories are generated as should be

There is two separate problems with flashplayer:

a) Flasplayer needs antique HAL-interface for DRM. HAL needs probably dbus, and both must be loaded until haldaemon starts
b) When testing with adobe DRM-test program, test video is playing but yle-areena is not. Metafile does not start, and "security sandbox violation" error code is shown. Probably this error comes because yle areena makes some securitys checkcs and error comes becouse libflasplayer.so should be at /usr/lib.

That needs some more testing.

Edit: I'm working with *.tzc packages for library reasons. I think flashplayer won't work without dynamic lib stack. Next try to install raw *.tar package from adobe and install HAL-system.
