libogg not available in piCore extension manager

[Ferret4181]

Hello,

Just started using Tiny Core today on a Raspberry Pi, loving it so far!

I think I have come across a missing dependancy in the piCore extension manager. I am trying to install 'alsa-plugins', and it tires to also download libogg, however I get this error:

Code: [Select]

Downloading: libogg.tcz
Connecting to repo.picoreplayer.org (172.67.157.97:443)
wget: server returned error: HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
md5sum: libogg.tcz.md5.txt: No such file or directory
Error on libogg.tcz
It also has a similar error when I try and install 'alsa-plugins-dev', however it is libogg-dev that is missing this time.

Thanks for any help, and apologies if I have missed something obvious.

Are you using piCore or piCoreplayer?

piCorePlayer, but I have also tried installing via the official piCore extension repository as well through the browser GUI.

You did not connect to the piCore repository, you connected to the piCoreplayer repository.

Looking in the piCoreplayer repository:
http://picoreplayer.sourceforge.net/tcz_repo/13.x/armv7/tcz/

Searching for  libogg  lists it as  pcp-libogg.tcz.
The  alsa-plugins.tcz.tree  lists this:

Code: [Select]

alsa-plugins.tcz
   libsamplerate.tcz
      libsndfile.tcz
         flac.tcz
         libasound.tcz
            alsa-modules-KERNEL.tcz
         libvorbis.tcz
         sqlite3.tcz
   speexdsp.tcz
      speex.tcz
         libogg.tcz
I'm not familiar with piCoreplayer and why some extensions have a  pcp  prefix.

I think you should ask this question on the piCoreplayer forum:

is "piCOREplayer" some extension in the PiCORE repo?  (i can't see it)

........or is it an APP for raspberry Pi's that just happens to share the same naming style "PiCORE" as
 tinycores offering of the "PiCORE" operating system for raspberry pis?

hmm

Thx

Hi vinceASPECT
piCOREplayer is a separate project:
https://picoreplayer.org/index.html

Mixing between the piCore and piCorePlayer repos can introduce some dependency issues.  when it comes to sound libraries, piCorePlayer uses dedicated libraries, that way there is less risk of version conflicts between repos.

Please post your questions about pCP over on our forum. https://picoreplayer.org/announce.latest

ahh yes,

i see what piCOREplayer project is.........and indeed one of it's many components is "piCORE" operating system by Tinycore linux.

Thank you all for your help (and apologies for the slow reply on my behalf).

It must have been a dependency issue with the piCorePlayer repos (as Paul_123 suggested) as I was able to install the extension when I switched to a piCore installation. I will bring the issue up in the other forum, thank you for directing me there.

Thank you again for your help
