Title: searchprebuilt issue connecting...
Post by: nitram on January 07, 2016, 08:36:04 AM

Running searchprebuilt results in issue connecting error. This works in dCore-jessie, not sure it works for all dCore flavours. Thanks.

Line 12 of searchprebuilt:

Broken:

Code: [Select]

PREBUILTMIRROR="${IMPORTMIRROR%/}/$(getMajorVer).x/"$BUILD"/import"

Works:

Code: [Select]

PREBUILTMIRROR="${IMPORTMIRROR%/}/dCore/"$BUILD"/import"

This tool has apparently not been used since we stopped using major Core release numbers which was 5 at the time.  Thanks, will be in the next RC.

Thanks for the fix. Sorry for after thought. Wondering if it should be named or sym linked sce-searchprebuilt or similar. It is still very useful but gets lost in /usr/bin. Plan to submit brief --help usage later. Thanks.

A link sce-searchprebuilt > searchprebuilt or a renaming can be done to keep with the SCE tab completion.

Okay, thanks. Help usage will reflect sce-searchprebuilt.

Maybe this utility can be merged with the sce-searchpkg or similar in another thread.  Thanks.

You're the boss. Will wait to see what you come up with before writing --help usage. Unless i misunderstand, personally like sce-searchprebuilt as standalone so it is very clear what comes from Tiny Core repos vs Debian.

Sorry just wanted to add. Many items in searchprebuilt are critical to new users getting their systems set up, like kernel modules. So a nice relatively short prebuilt list makes it much easier to find those critical items.

You are right, (sce-)searchprebuilt remains as it is.  :-)
