Can't create a XZM file.

[glestwid]

Hi,

I'm trying to make a missed XZM file form existing DEB at Ubuntu/ To realize it I'm issuing the following command:

wget http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/poo ... 1_i386.deb

Then it's time to run deb2xzm:

root@porteus:/tmp# deb2xzm python3-tk_3.10.4-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
Checking required libraries ...

And I receive nothing. What am I doing wrong ?

uest@porteus:~$ sudo '/opt/porteus-scripts/deb2xzm' -x /home/guest/Downloads/ansible-lint_4.3.7-1_all.deb

you can use also the su option with password toor

Here's my output for '/opt/porteus-scripts/deb2xzm:

root@porteus:~/Downloads# sudo '/opt/porteus-scripts/deb2xzm' -x /home/root/Downloads/python3-tk_3.10.5-2ubuntu2_i386.deb

root@porteus:~/Downloads#

And no XZM again. What's wrong with my Porteus/deb2xzm/whatever else?

[beny]

the file that you have to change is ok? you can see it with an archive manager like file roller and type the script into a console and run it without the deb file see what tell you.

[glestwid]

the file that you have to change is ok?

Yep, it's opened in file manager and 7Zip as well.

but why python3-tk_3.10.5-2ubuntu2_i386.deb? porteus 5.0 has python-3.9 ...so getpkg tk would seem a better bet.
more generally, .debs seem to be hit and miss with deb2xzm ... possibly due to poorly built .debs ..? (havn't a problem with any i've tested so far)
possibility: the internals of a deb have a "data" archive which deb2xzm checks for one four types: tar.bz2, tar.lzma, tar.xz, tar.gz .. perhaps another one(or more) have been introduced?

--> python3-tk_3.10.4-0ubuntu1_i386.deb -- zst compression is used inside this file
therefore deb2xzm can not handle it.
I made some modifications to deb2xzm and also to convert_deb - which is used by the xfce
context menu.
Try them if you like.
deb2xzm goes into /opt/porteus-scripts (rename the original one to deb2xzm.orig first before
you copy in the new one so you can revert back if it does not work correctly.)
convert_deb is in /opt/porteus-scripts/context-menu (also rename the original one beforehand)
Note: I used a x86_64-xfce porteus system. there may or may not differences in a 32bit system.

looks good, thanks donald, added to the scripts TREE ..
