Corepure64 / Re: fakechroot in CorePure64

« Last post by Zhurman on June 30, 2025, 12:26:39 PM »

When asking for help, it's usually a good idea to include:
Tinycore version i.e TC14, TC15, TC16, etc.
Architecture i,e, x86, x86_64, arm, aarch64
The exact command that is causing the issue.

OK, sure.
TC16.1, architecture x86_64

Did you try running it with the  -s  option:

Code: [Select]

fakechroot -s ...

That command also give segfaults and breaks my system.

Or you may have to compile it from source using the Tinycore
toolchain (compiletc.tcz):

[EDIT] Starting to try.

Hi Zhurman
Welcome to the forum.

Hi, I needed fakechroot for my Tiny Core system, so I manually packaged it from the Arch Linux repo. ...

Grabbing binaries from other distros can be a hit or miss exercise.

... I also added the full packages of glibc and libxcrypt to include the necessary shared libraries (*.so files). After loading the extensions and trying to run fakechroot, I got a segmentation fault three times, and it usually breaks the system - only sudo poweroff still works properly. ...

Corepure64 / fakechroot in CorePure64

« Last post by Zhurman on June 30, 2025, 08:17:31 AM »

Hi, I needed fakechroot for my Tiny Core system, so I manually packaged it from the Arch Linux repo. I also added the full packages of glibc and libxcrypt to include the necessary shared libraries (*.so files). After loading the extensions and trying to run fakechroot, I got a segmentation fault three times, and it usually breaks the system - only sudo poweroff still works properly.

Here’s my .dep file:
readline.tcz 
ncursesw.tcz 
glibc.tcz 
gdbm.tcz 
db.tcz 
libxcrypt.tcz 
fakeroot.tcz 
coreutils.tcz 
util-linux.tcz 

Also, running ldd on fakechroot causes a segmentation fault with the same result.

What can I do to get fakechroot working correctly? Or is writing my own minimal implementation a more valid solution?

[EDIT] I also see the Alpine Linux, maybe I start work with this?

Picoreplayer is a separate project from Tinycore Linux. You probably ask you questions at: https://www.picoreplayer.org/

Hello, my system is piCorePlayer v10.0.0. When I am running a program, it displays an error as shown in Figure 1. I have checked the runtime library and it is shown in Figure 2. I would like to ask how to install the required runtime library? Thank you.

TCB Q&A Forum / Re: Video Acceleration is important???

According to meson setup the following codecs were built:

Code: [Select]

Video
    Codecs                       : av1dec av1enc vp9dec
 
I left the selection of codecs on auto, so perhaps the h264 codec is not freely distributable, you would have to check the meson options text file in the source code tarball.

Do you need a driver like libvdpau-va-gl?

  What good this libvdpau-va-gl could do when vainfo / vdpauinfo  show NO H264 profile which I badly need?       (I took vdpauinfo  from Debian64 Bookworm)

I was thinking of compile_mesa script  (with h264dec)  from SRC/xorg folder but I am not sure how to compile or if this compile_mesa is a script at all.
