Help with dpm

[ferran]

aswjh is the author of this interesting script made in 2015 to download and convert debian packages for TC:

http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,18237.msg110828.html#msg110828

1) as it's related above I decompressed the dpm-1.1.tar.gz package and installed on /mnt/sda1/tce/ondemand/

2) I did dpm pick

Code: [Select]

$ dpm pick

Version: 1.1
Usage: dpm [ mirror update config upgrade clean (link/link clear) ]
       dpm [ -i -ic -if -w -wi -d -D -r -s -u ] extensions
 mirror    Pick out a fastest mirror, specify a string to match: dpm mirror chin
 update  Update packages database
 config  Config ld.so.conf and dpm.rc(TCEDIR/dpkg)
 upgrade  Update all packages
 clean    Delete deb files downloaded
 link/link clear link to tce/optional or clear
 show    Show information of packages
  -i   Load local extension
  -c   Copy to file system when installing. If installed, copy again
  -f   Overwrite when installing. If installed, copy again
  -w   Download deb files and make tcz extension
  -d   Show depends
  -D   Show dependices
  -r   Show reverse dependices
  -s   Search packages
  -u   Update packages

3) And finally I tried to do the conversion of the last stable Opera browser's debian package:

Code: [Select]

$ dpm -wi opera-stable_68.0.3618.56_amd64.deb
 
Connecting to ftp.debian.org (130.89.148.12:80)
saving to '/mnt/sda1/tce/dpkg/mirrors/ftp.debian.org/dist/sid/main/i386/Packages.xz'
Packages.xz          100% |******************************************| 7988k  0:00:00 ETA
'/mnt/sda1/tce/dpkg/mirrors/ftp.debian.org/dist/sid/main/i386/Packages.xz' saved
package not found: opera-stable

So now what?

P.D.: Please aswjh come back soon

Hi ferran

Code: [Select]

$ dpm -wi opera-stable_68.0.3618.56_amd64.deb
 
    ~----- SNIP -----~

'/mnt/sda1/tce/dpkg/mirrors/ftp.debian.org/dist/sid/main/i386/Packages.xz' saved
package not found: opera-stable ...

You are asking for a 64 bit package, but isn't  main/i386/  a 32 bit repository?

Maybe try something like this:

Code: [Select]

dpm -s operaand see what that returns.

[ferran]

Hi Rich. So happens this:

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~$ dpm -s opera

geany-plugin-lineoperations
libequinox-p2-operations-java
libghc-operational-dev
libghc-operational-doc
libghc-operational-prof
node-babel-helper-builder-binary-assignment-operator-visitor
node-babel-plugin-syntax-exponentiation-operator
node-babel-plugin-transform-exponentiation-operator
phpunit-resource-operations
python3-booleanoperations

tc@box:~$ opera
sh: opera: not found
tc@box:~$


[ferran]

It seems (I don't know sure...) that exists a debian's repository  of Opera's browser named "Packages.gz":

https://deb.opera.com/opera/dists/stable/non-free/binary-i386/

If I download this could be install it in TC?

[Rich]

Hi ferran

Hi Rich. So happens this:

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~$ dpm -s opera

    ~----- SNIP -----~

That command just does a search for the term  opera.

It seems (I don't know sure...) that exists a debian's repository  of Opera's browser named "Packages.gz":

https://deb.opera.com/opera/dists/stable/non-free/binary-i386/

If I download this we could be install it in TC?

That one might work if all the dependencies are available.

[ferran]

It's rare...

After I downloaded  Packages.gz from https://deb.opera.com/opera/dists/stable/non-free/binary-i386/

and decompressed with gzip -dl Packages.gz i gained this:

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~/Downloads$ gzip -dl Packages.gz
         compressed        uncompressed  ratio uncompressed_name
               1820                7557  76.2% Packages

huh... but i tried

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~/Downloads$ dpm -wi Packages
package not found: Packages
tc@box:~/Downloads$

tc@box:~/Downloads$ ./Packages
sh: ./Packages: not found
tc@box:~/Downloads$


LeL. What fk... is that "Packages"? XD

[ferran]

TIP
If are you ask yourself why I don't wants to install our opera.tcz is because its version is less than the 20th (since this and the nexts we can play html5 streaming/live video, before don't).

All right. Next test:

i downloaded the .rpm package from the Opera's website

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~/Downloads$ sudo rpm -i opera-stable_68.0.3618.56_amd64.rpm
tc@box:~/Downloads$ ls

Aham...

I think I'm going to worth with another things... 

[Rich]

Hi ferran
Maybe something like this:

Code: [Select]

dpm mirror "https://deb.opera.com/opera/dists/stable/non-free/binary-i386/"
dpm update
dpm -s operaDoes it list an  opera  package now?

This is all guesswork on my part. I'm not familiar with this script or how  .deb  packages are handled.

[ferran]

Rich it don't works too

Code: [Select]

root@box:/home/tc/Downloads# dpm mirror "https://deb.opera.com/opera/dists/stable/non-free
/binary-i386/"
root@box:/home/tc/Downloads# dpm update
Connecting to deb.opera.com (151.101.134.202:443)
wget: server returned error: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Connecting to deb.opera.com (151.101.134.202:443)

Connecting to deb.opera.com (151.101.134.202:443)
wget: server returned error: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
root@box:/home/tc/Downloads#

Rich: I'm aware of this. I appreciate all the time you're giving me.

Maybe the author of this script could to clear more what I need to do soon.
