Title: additional dependencies require
Post by: ibug on January 30, 2012, 08:42:56 AM

bug in
gparted.tcz.tree
gparted.tcz under TinyCore-4.2.1 requires also
libdevmapper.tcz
udev-lib.tcz


truecrypt.tcz require dmsetup and there is none

soo I get and convert it to sfs4.tcz
dmsetup_1.02.39-1ubuntu4.1_i386
with
libdevmapper1.02.1_1.02.48-4ubuntu3_i386
libselinux1_2.0.89-4_i386

and truecrypt do not hang anymore but
dmesg says
device-mapper: table: 252:0: crypt: Error allocating crypto tfm
device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table

what other dependencies truecrypt need

Hi ibug
A brief summary of the what you are trying to use these extensions for would be helpful. Based
on what you wrote, I am guessing you are dealing with logical volumes? If that is the case, the
following extensions do exist:
lvm2.tcz  which not only contains  dmsetup  but also includes  libdevmapper.tcz  and  udev-lib.tcz
as dependencies.
These are not required to run applications, rather, the are required to run the operating system
if set up for logical volumes. Not a bug.

Rich knows his stuff :)

I use gparted extensively and have only needed the two deps listed in it's dep file.   parted + gtkmm  as listed only for full functionality AFAIK

Also is lvm2 (or rather raid-dm) compatible with core 4x ??
