piCore 16.0 Release

[Juanito]

version reports 16.0, but yes, it's missing the symlink - when I add it things work 

[Paul_123]

I’ll start updating os-release as I do betas.  I am just being lazy updating them once for each version

[zharr]

Been using 16.0 for a while now, and only now noticed ntp is broken...
ntp relies on the openssl-1.1.1 package, but it's not in its dependencies - libevent technically depends on openssh.tcz, but that does not pull in openssl-1.1.1 either.
So probably the issue is that libevent might actually rely on openssl-1.1.1 instead of openssl, I'm not sure, but without this package, ntpd can't load:

Code: [Select]

ntpd: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
One more thing, I just noticed openssh, openssl, and ca-certificates come preinstalled.
In my case, the way my setup scripts worked, it assumed them to be up-to-date, and so I was using outdated ca-certificates.
Already, there were a few CAs removed in the most up-to-date ca-certificates TCE.
Of course that might just be my scripts, but considering their nature, that might be a potential security issue.
Are they ever updated in standard operating conditions where packages are installed via tce-load?

Hi zharr

When ca-certificates gets installed, tce-load executes:

Code: [Select]

/usr/local/tce.installed/ca-certificateswhich runs the script:

Code: [Select]

/usr/local/sbin/update-ca-certificates

ntp relies on the openssl-1.1.1 package

I'll look at recompiling it.

Thanks a lot, just tested, it works without openssl-1.1.1 now!

When ca-certificates gets installed, tce-load executes:

/usr/local/tce.installed/ca-certificateswhich runs the script:

/usr/local/sbin/update-ca-certificates

Ah missed that, makes sense. Thanks

updated ntp posted - not tested

Actually, nevermind, it did work initially, but there's a new error now:

Code: [Select]

daemon control: got EOFI'm not sure when or why this started, or why it worked at first.
I'll downgrade ntp for now and see over time if that also happens with openssl-1.1.1

EDIT: Nevermind, I might have a bad SD, will check again tomorrow.

I'd like to use busybox-httpd. I believe that the httpd module is not compiled into the busybox in 16.0. It is busybox config file available somewhere? I don't mind compiling - it would be a real help if I could start with the standard version, then just add the httpd module.

[Paul_123]

The extension is busybox-httpd.tcz   The configs are in the 15.x release folders.  Busybox did not get updated for 16.x

It appears that xorg-server.tcz looks for a font folder "100pdi" rather than "100dpi".  The Xorg server reports no font folder "100pdi". This appears in three files in the tcz: Xnest, Xvfb and Xorg.
There is an easy work-around by defining a symbolic link to let the server find the 100dpi font files.

[Paul_123]

Please don’t post general questions in this release thread.  I split off the touchscreen question.

Hi MrPorcine

It appears that xorg-server.tcz looks for a font folder "100pdi" rather than "100dpi". ...

I just checked  TC14 x86_64  and it reports the same error.

However, a search of the repo shows no extensions containing
any  100dpi  directories. So currently, there is no impact.

[Juanito]

Ah - the mistake is here: http://tinycorelinux.net/15.x/aarch64/tcz/src/xorg-server/compile_xorg-server

I'll look to fix the error the next time xorg-server is re-built
