(still I'm curious why not on Slackware Current)

I am not sure I get what you mean by that.
Porteus 5 is based on Slackware 15 - using Slackware Current packages could break some stuff since dependencies that Port already has could be outdated for a Slack-current package.

You could always try getting a Slack-current package running in Port 5, but when that fails use the Slack-15 package instead.

This is a very good thread for porteus 5. It seems that we will finally overcome the lost of USM, with existing softwares like slapt-get, slackpkg+ or porteus pmod. For sure updating proprly and including a large amount of repositories will help.

Thanks to all of you.

No, it's very easy

What do you think about editing the 1st post ...

Unfortunately I was unable to edit on the 1st post (probably because it has exceeded the editing limit)

404. That’s an error.

The requested URL was not found on this server. That’s all we know.

Have you removed the module for a newer one?

(And I did indeed use the correct URL from your post, not the truncated version that quoting turned it into…)

hi Rava is a salix package so you can download via browser or slpkg but you have to configure the repositories first

Posted: **08 Sep 2022, 15:53**

^
I presume the module from the initial post did include the basic setup?

Done, left in the initial 2 lines and the later examples while updating the download link and most recent examples incl. setup - as of the info in the given link.

Please tell me if I did it to your satisfaction.

Added in 4 minutes 53 seconds:
When you define what the * should be, you can include the links of

Code: Select all

sudo ln -s gtk3-classic* gtk+3-3.24.33-x86_64-1
sudo ln -s boost-stripped* boost-1.78.0-x86_64-1
sudo ln -s llvm-stripped* llvm-13.0.0-x86_64-1

in your module when you use "ln -sf"
In the module itself the links might be broken, but combined with what's in the base modules all would work out of the box.

Or better put the above in a script that gets executed when the module is activated - e.g. a script in 011-slapt-get-0.11.6-x86_64-2gv.xzm/var/lib/pkgtools

Thanks Rava

hi Rava why you don't try the slackware way to build a package from a directory alias source code and after txz2xzm instead of dir2xzm, cd into the directory and with terminal..
makepkg -l y -c n ../app-version-arch-tag.tgz
i have added two repositories at the package repack and work well what you have to do with...and good work babam with getmod work very well.

I activated the original module by babam, did the ln -s in /var/lib/pkgtools/packages and ran slapt-get --update - but it ends in an error:

Any idea what is going on? How do I "correct sources"?

You should add this somewhere in the slapt-get module.
