Note: Before running getmod (slapt-get) to download/build the module it is highly recommended to do this step
Code: Select all
cd /var/lib/pkgtools/packages
sudo ln -s gtk3-classic-3.24.33-x86_64-1ncm gtk+3-3.24.33-x86_64-1ncm
sudo ln -s boost-stripped-1.78.0-x86_64-2_slack15.0 boost-1.78.0-x86_64-2_slack15.0
sudo ln -s llvm-stripped-13.0.0-x86_64-2 llvm-13.0.0-x86_64-2

Why not add these symlinks into 011-slapt-get-0.11.6-x86_64-2gv.xzm ?

babam, getmod might be getting dependencies that are already installed. Compare:

Code: Select all

root@porteus:~# getmod -m ibus-1.5.25-x86_64-5
Reading Package Lists...Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  pango gtk+2 gtk+3 ibus  for

to

Code: Select all

root@porteus:~# pmod -m ibus-1.5.25-x86_64-5
Looking for ibus-1.5.25-x86_64-5 in package list. Please wait... DONE
[1/1]	Package: ibus-1.5.25-x86_64-5.txz

Indeed I checked and it seems the getmod-made module includes pango, gtk+2, gtk+3, that are already in my system?

Also in what you some reason recommend: ln -s gtk3-classic-3.24.33-x86_64-1ncm gtk+3-3.24.33-x86_64-1ncm,there is a typo perhaps:

Code: Select all

You just need to enter the package name (no version-architecture required)

Code: Select all

# getmod -m ibus

Before you run getmod -m ibus do these package names exist:

Code: Select all

ls /var/lib/pkgtools/packages/gtk+2-*
ls /var/lib/pkgtools/packages/gtk+3-*
ls /var/lib/pkgtools/packages/pango-*

On Porteus 5.0 GNOME ---> gtk3-classic-3.24.33-x86_64-1ncm

gtk+3 and gtk3-classic are different package names
boost and boost-stripped are different package names

Your system has gtk+2?

Code: Select all

ls /var/lib/pkgtools/packages/gtk+2*

Thanks.

babam, before and after running getmod -m ibus I have:

Code: Select all

root@porteus:~# cd /var/lib/pkgtools/packages/
root@porteus:/var/lib/pkgtools/packages# ls gtk+2-* gtk+3-* pango-*
/bin/ls: cannot access 'gtk+2-*': No such file or directory
/bin/ls: cannot access 'gtk+3-*': No such file or directory
pango-1.50.6-x86_64-1-ncm
root@porteus:/var/lib/pkgtools/packages#

getmod downloaded these, notice an older pango:

Code: Select all

root@porteus:~# ls /tmp/getmod/ibus/slackware64/l
gtk+2-2.24.33-x86_64-2.txz  pango-1.48.11-x86_64-1.txz
gtk+3-3.24.31-x86_64-1.txz

Also:

Code: Select all

root@porteus:~# ls /var/lib/pkgtools/packages/gtk+2*
/bin/ls: cannot access '/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/gtk+2*': No such file or directory
root@porteus:~# ls /var/lib/pkgtools/packages/gtk*
/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/gtk3-classic-3.24.33-x86_64-2ncm
/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/gtkdialog-git-20220205-x86_64-1ncm
/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/gtkmm3-3.24.5-x86_64-1

And indeed I don't have 1ncm, but 2ncm

Code: Select all

root@porteus:/var/lib/pkgtools/packages# ls gtk3-classic-3.24.33-x86_64-*
gtk3-classic-3.24.33-x86_64-2ncm

Post#21 by **babam** » 28 Aug 2022, 10:51

rych, Therefore I highly recommend this step (it has been updated) slapt-get: slapt-get is an APT like system for Slackware package management. (Post by babam #89197)

Post#22 by **rych** » 28 Aug 2022, 11:04

babam, it still wants to get extra packages (minus gtk+3):

Code: Select all

root@porteus:/var/lib/pkgtools/packages# ln -s gtk3-classic* gtk+3-3.24.33-x86_64-1
root@porteus:/var/lib/pkgtools/packages# ln -s boost-stripped* boost-1.78.0-x86_64-1
root@porteus:/var/lib/pkgtools/packages# ln -s llvm-stripped* llvm-13.0.0-x86_64-1
root@porteus:/var/lib/pkgtools/packages# getmod -m ibus 
Reading Package Lists...Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  pango gtk+2 ibus

maybe it's okay, but pango is definitely older, and gtk+2 might not be needed: the ibus module made from pmod kind of worked without any of the above dependencies. Actually, an interesting question: does Porteus 5.0 OpenBox ever needs Gtk2? There is an official bundle provided, but I didn't install it and it seems to be fine?

Post#23 by **babam** » 28 Aug 2022, 11:16

rych, slapt-get is not perfect, if pmod can perform well then use pmod.

the bundle is provided as a convenience for those who want to use some app(or app version) out there that still uses gtk+2.. (eg. gftp or palemoon gtk2 version or ?)
there's nothing in any of the base modules or DEs that requires it nowdays.. (there's an xfce4.12 DE module in the forums available that also uses/includes it)

yep, a link for the pango package should probly be done too..
in the future, it might be good to do links like this for all custom packages that are in slackware official repo (and named differently) in the base modules..
as for ibus and gtk+2, i'd say that it's built with both gtk+3 and gtk+2 support, so can use either( it's only for some gui, which i don't know if is any use to you)
and, as is often the case with dependencies in package managers, 'make' and 'optional' deps can get pulled in as "really needed" deps, even though their not..

Post#25 by **rych** » 30 Aug 2022, 09:33

ncmprhnsbl, thanks, and by the way beny is able to get more hits from his pmod by using a "slackpkg+ configure" and he says it's already included but I searched for "slackpkg+" on my system and got 2 uninteresting hits:

Code: Select all

/mnt/live/memory/images/001-core.xzm/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/slackpkg+-1.8.0-noarch-3mt
/var/lib/pkgtools/packages/slackpkg+-1.8.0-noarch-3mt

How to use slackpkg+ config to discover non-standards packages?

2. Bonus question: just to confirm that Porteus 5.0 is on Slackware 15 and behind Slackware Current?!

Post#26 by **beny** » 30 Aug 2022, 15:03

hi rych the slackpkg+ is like the pmod wrapper you can't see it but if you search for packages you have to add the repository at slackpkgplus.config and in console slackpkg upgrade when you have the repository marked,and make a search for not a whole word you see like sbo you have to see the configure that i have posted above and save it and put on slackpkg directory in /etc

Code: Select all

beny, ncmprhnsbl, I've found the /etc/slackpkg/slackpkgplus.conf. You suggest uncommenting and adding some mirrors so the relevant part of that config becomes:

Code: Select all

# List repositories you want to use (defined below)
# remember to launch 'slackpkg update' if you modify this row.
#REPOPLUS=( slackpkgplus restricted alienbob )
REPOPLUS=( slackpkgplus slackonly restricted alienbob ponce )


# Define mirrors (uncomment one or more mirror; remember to add it to REPOPLUS)
# GPG Note: after adding/renaming a repository, you must to run 'slackpkg update gpg';
#           some repositories as salixos, have a partial GPG support;
#           for that repositories you may need to run slackpkg with 'slackpkg -checkgpg=off ...'

# Slackware 15.0 - x86_64

hi rych left the script running, i have the same issue but after a while the upgrade is complete, seem wget do not lock the adress of repository,i think the issue is for the work in progress of the slackpkg+ you can read the thread on linux questions if you like.

OK, today after running

Code: Select all

slackpkg update gpg
slackpkg update

it finally updated. With connection errors, for example, slackonly not working. Please post here new repositorires for Slackware 15 (still I'm curious why not on Slackware Current). Anyway, now both package management solutions find me some options, for example

Code: Select all

root@porteus:~# getmod -s calibre
calibre-bin-5.43.0-x86_64-1salix15.0  (Ebook manager)

root@porteus:~# pmod -s calibre
