Title: Bash extension
Post by: CentralWare on June 27, 2026, 07:24:10 AM

Good morning everyone!

@juanito:

I'm about to turn TinyCore into an LLM/AI foundation and while preparing to build Nvidia data-center drivers, I hit a brick wall right off the bat...  bash has an oops with library locations.

Code: [Select]

tc@5610C:/$ ldd /usr/local/bin/bash
        linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007f3590edc000)
        libreadline.so.8 => not found
        libhistory.so.8 => not found
        libncursesw.so.6 => /usr/local/lib/libncursesw.so.6 (0x00007f3590d99000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007f3590c0d000)
        /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f3590ede000)

Readline, etc. are all installed due to the bash.dep - bash just expects to find the missing libraries in /usr/lib instead of /usr/local/lib and doesn't look elsewhere.
This is a raw install of TCL17x64 where I removed all extensions and persistence before posting "just to make sure."

I don’t see that - I see bash working as expected..

I have to wipe the machine in question and start over from scratch once I have ollama set up as an extension -- if it repeats I'll deliver a complete step-by-step.
Thanks!

@juanito: The ollama.tcz extension is >3GB in size even without GPU support. Is it safe to say it's not something Admins would be hoping to have added to the repo?

I’d say that’s too big, yes
