Module creates File Links, solve dependencies

Post#1 by noobTeus » 06 Aug 2014, 15:34

Hello,

I'm using Porteus 3 - xfce.

1) Is it possible to create file's links from a module?
Presently when module activates, it can save the files in /opt/chess/engine ; I need it also creates a link (such as, ln -s) in /usr/games/engine

2) How to solve these/such dependencies?
I can run some programs in 'kde' .. but when I try to run in xfce they ask for dependencies - libQtXml.so.4, libQtWebKit.so.4
I cant find them using 'usm -k'

3) How to merge/combine 2 or more modules into 1 from command prompt?

4) How to throttle download speed in usm,usmgui?


Thanks.

A: Yes, extract your module to folder (xzm2dir) and make symbolink links (ln -rs) , after make module (dir2xzm).

2) How to solve these/such dependencies?
I can run some programs in 'kde' .. but when I try to run in xfce they ask for dependencies - libQtXml.so.4, libQtWebKit.so.4

A: You need Qt

Code: Select all

root@porteus:/home/guest# usm -g Qt-4
3) How to merge/combine 2 or more modules into 1 from command prompt?
