you have to add develop.xzm, just download it then activate it.
after that you can build the source of flexine.tar .
if you found some problem, you may post it here !

"flxine" is an ultra lightweight FLTK frontend for xine.
(it's basically... a Gnome mPlayer alternative that avoids Gtk/Qt bloat)
I don't know the size of FLXine since I couldn't find it anywhere, but I know it requires:

FLTK:
Installed size: 3.40 MB

Xine-lib:
Installed size: 36.70 MB

Also, it is a dead project as far as I know. So in the end you'll need a not-that-light set of packages to try to compile a very old project that is dead. Is it worth the effort? Especially considering that Mpv itself runs out of the box on Porteus :)

@n0ctilucient, do you remove both GTK 2 and 3 before using from Porteus?

For me I hate the word old as long as it works. When you get modules or programs to new you have problems.

That is my input sorry if you don't like it.
