Title: Compiling environment
Post by: meo on August 06, 2009, 01:40:59 PM

Hi guys!

What would be the ultimate (in realistic terms) compiling environment? Considering extensions, RAM-memory, swapspace etc. Suggestions will be very appreciated.

Have fun,
meo

If you load the following as tcz extensions, they will not use much ram and will take care of most compiling situations:

gcc, binutils, base-devs, bison, diffutils, file, findutils, flex, gawk, gperf, grep, m4, make, patch, pkg-config, sed

You may also need the following perl based extensions, but this is less likely:

perl_xml, perl_archive_zip, help2man

Hi Juanito!

Thanks for your suggestion. I know you have been working your ass off to get openoffice compiled for tinycore. I hope you get some suggestions to get around the snags. I really appreciate your work and your suggestions.

Have fun extending tinycore,
meo

Just  to be sure there's no misunderstanding, an openoffice-2.3.1 extension is alread available as oo2.tcel/tczl.

It was openoffice-3.1 that I was trying and failing to compile...

What's the overlap between these and "compiletc"

TIA

It contains all of the one on the "first line" (or see the .dep)

compiletc is for tinycore version 1.x, that lot is for tinycore version 2.x

I don't follow -- there's a compiletc for 2.x as well.

They're different (see the .info)

For the record, my previous post was for the 2.x one.
