Title: Extension dependencies download list for TC`s app. installer?
Post by: SunBurnt on August 27, 2011, 07:23:38 PM

I need the dependency list for all TC extension apps. to make a dependency tree or chart.
Simple apps. don`t need one of course as they don`t have dependencies.

How does TC`s installer know what to download and setup for each extension file?
There must be a dep. list somewhere...

I see in firefox.tcz the file dependentlibs.list that lists the libraries in Firefox`s extension file.

This isn`t the installers list of download dep. files for Firefox that I need.

Running "ldd firefox-bin" gives a list of library dependencies that`s much longer.

Thanks curaga; I searched all over but no file firefox.tcz.tree, but I while looking I found firefox.tcz.dep

Strangest thing.... The file firefox.tcz is squash4, but not the file firefox.tcz.dep. TC won`t mount it.

It`s not a gzip, bzip2 or zip file either. Could you see fit to tell me how to look inside the file?

If there is a file firefox.tcz.tree, I can`t find it...

The dep and tree files are just text. The installers don't use the tree files, they go through .dep files recursively.

Thanks again curaga; The dep files are obviously for the installer. That`s what I need at the moment.

The tree files would be useful for compiling apps of course. I may do that further along.
