174 MB? When my chromium-ungoogled-105.0.5195.125-x86_64 is a mere 84.82 MB in size?

I cannot think that a module more than double the size than a (almost) recent chromium-ungoogled … being much quicker when the size is so much larger.
Cheers!
Yours Rava

Code: Select all

root@porteus:/Porteus_modules/chromium# deb2xzm thorium-browser_109.0.5361.0_amd64.deb 

Checking required libraries ...

unxz: data.tar: Write error: No space left on device
I had 116G on the ext2 device that is /Porteus_modules
but only 321M free space on /tmp.

I have no idea how one can fix this error.
I think I would have to disassemble deb2xzm and re-create all steps manually while controlling where the stuff gets extracted.
Cheers!

I presume this line is the main culprit in deb2xzm's failure:
mkdir /tmp/deb2xzm$$ && cp $y /tmp/deb2xzm$$ && cd /tmp/deb2xzm$$ && /usr/bin/ar x * data.tar.gz && bzip2 -d data.tar.bz2 && gzip data.tar && mv data.tar.gz $pkg.tgz && txz2xzm $COMP /tmp/deb2xzm$$/$pkg.tgz && mv /tmp/deb2xzm$$/$pkg.xzm $mod
Cheers!

No, I meant that the quoted part is the script code line from deb2xzm itself.

wrong for my Port 5.0:

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:/mnt/live/memory/images$ find . 2>/dev/null|grep libbfd
./001-core.xzm/usr/lib64/libbfd-2.37-slack15.so
./001-core.xzm/usr/lib64/libbfd.so
my 001-core:

Code: Select all

guest@porteus:~$ cat /etc/porteus/001-core.ver 
001-core.xzm:20221211
Cheers!

It says it works with Firefox based browsers.

Does it work with Palemoon?

And what is the advantage compared to yt-dlp?
Cheers!
