Tiny Core 3.0 Alpha 6 Testing
SvOlli:
Hello!
There are two things with tce-load I'd call odd:
First, you can run
--- Code: ---tce-load -w -i extension.tcz
--- End code ---
to download and install an extension, but
--- Code: ---tce-load -i extension.tcz
--- End code ---
fails, even if the extension has been downloaded.
I've attached a patch that prepends $TCEDIR/optional as a second try, if the extension was not found in the first place.
Second, if you try to install locally an extension that depends on compiletc.tcz, it will fail. To reproduce download only the qt-creator.tcz creator package and install it afterwards locally or via ondemand.

Due to reading another thread I had a quick look at the Wiki page mentioned and feel now compelled to report a minor annoyance:
Currently the URL in '/opt/tcemirror' has to end with a forward slash (unlike to what the Wiki page might suggest). This is due to the lack of a forward slash between "$MIRROR" and "$(getMajorVer)" in the current implementation of the 'getMirror()' function (in '/etc/init.d/tc-functions'). I believe that changing it to
MIRROR="${MIRROR%/}/$(getMajorVer).x/tcz"
would make it a more "tolerant" function.

The latest source code for 2.x is posted.

Since I am still supporting 2.x, and fltk is 1.1.10 on both 2.x and 3.x I have not moved fltk compiles to 3.x.

--- Quote ---Loading Tiny Core Applications Extensions
--- End quote ---
This would be better:
--- Quote ---Loading Tiny Core Extensions
--- End quote ---
--- End quote ---
OK. Done.
