USM Unified Slackware Package Manager

[brokenman]

I am working on removing the terminal from the GUI. I wasn't quite comfortable with having it there but it saved a lot of extra coding. I've decided to do the extra coding and show the user a real GUI instead of the console. This will also solve a few other issues. It will take a little more time, but will be more usable. Since there has been no elaboration on why merging a CLI and GUI script into one usable script is a bad idea, I have continued and found it to be quite usable. The script will sense if it is being run directly or via a menu item and will react accordingly. When the CLI is run directly then only the code for the CLI will run. Nothing will be exported for the GUI as it is all skipped using 'if' clauses.

Another benefit is it allows me to export less text to .po files for i18n usage. I will also be able to upload source code to a version tracker such as git and users can test latest versions by pulling from git and building with 'make install' which will support DESTDIR if you prefer to make a module. In simpler words, it will be more efficient, manageable and prettier.

Still havn't solved how i can automate the updating of repositories, but that can come later. In the future if anyone is interested in maintaining a 'slackware type' repository for porteus that would be great. I would expect to see all the packages that don't exist in the repos that USM already uses. The maintainer would have to maintain for both 64 and 32 bit and be familiar with slackware packages and how to create them. If we can start to hand out tasks to the community it will help take a load off.

Excuse me for my slow response.

1.[gtkusm]: 'alt+character'
I tried change for using same English character.

example:
"_'$(gettext "Tools")'"
-->
"'$(gettext "_Tools")'"

.po
msgid "Tools"
msgstr "ツール"
-->
msgid "_Tools"
msgstr "ツール(_T)"

2.[usm]: bold
Bold characters do not be displayed on the terminal window of 'gtkusm'.
I tried change following.

#====[usm]====
28,33c28,33
< txtbld=$(tput bold) # Bold
< txtred=$(tput setaf 1)${txtbld} # Red
< txtgreen=$(tput setaf 2)${txtbld} # green
< txtblue=$(tput setaf 4)${txtbld} # blue
< txtpink=$(tput setaf 5)${txtbld} # pink
< txtcyan=$(tput setaf 6)${txtbld} # cyan
---
> txtbld=$(tput setaf 6) #$(tput bold) # Bold
> txtred=$(tput setaf 1) #${txtbld} # Red
> txtgreen=$(tput setaf 2) #${txtbld} # green
> txtblue=$(tput setaf 4) #${txtbld} # blue
> txtpink=$(tput setaf 5) #${txtbld} # pink
> txtcyan=$(tput setaf 6) #${txtbld} # cyan
#=============

3.[usm],[gtkusm]: export TEXTDOMAIN=usm; export TEXTDOMAIN=gtkusm
I do not know well how to set environment variabl TEXTDOMAIN value of "usm" for usm program and "gtkusm" for gtkusm program at same time.
I tried the most easy following way.

#====[usm]====
2c2
<
---
> export TEXTDOMAIN=usm
#=============

#====[gtkusm]====
2c2
<
---
> export TEXTDOMAIN=gtkusm
#=============

4.[gtkusm]: gtkusm.po
Japanese po for gtkusm
md5sum: 5b71601f3d08baf0647f22d97c0d7970 gtkusm.po

5.[usm]: usm.po
update Japanese po for usm

Where does one get the usm gui?

[francois]

Thanks.

[bdheeman]

Great work, indeed

BUGS, I found that the 'usm -g <whatever-having-dashes-in-package-name>' fails to find and, or fetch package; though search is working fine.

OTOH, the formatting/indentation in shell script usm is very poor

BTW, would you mind I submit a patch after proper formatting/indentation; all tabs converted to 2 or 4 spaces. What do you suggest?

[brokenman]

Thanks people. Please hold off on any patching or translating for now. I am in the process of rewriting to integrate the CLI/GUI (and am taking care of indentation bdheeman) which means a substantial code change. I copied and pasted many of my previous functions into the script hence the bad formatting.

@brokenman

I expect your new integrated 'usm'.
Thanks.

[brokenman]

BUGS, I found that the 'usm -g <whatever-having-dashes-in-package-name>' fails to find and, or fetch package; though search is working fine.

bdheeman I can't seem to reproduce this. In fact the get function was written with the intent of pasting the full package name with dashes. Can anyone else confirm?
I will be updating today.

/usr/sbin/usm: line 1416: declare: 136K: value too great for base (error token is "136K")

obrigado

[bdheeman]

bdheeman I can't seem to reproduce this. In fact the get function was written with the intent of pasting the full package name with dashes. Can anyone else confirm?

Sorry, I was not aware; pasting the full package name with dashes + version info + extension is working.

[brokenman]

@slaxmax please try using the latest version (3.0.9) and update the database. I can't reproduce this on 32 or 64bit.

The error in question

Code: Select all

line 1416: declare: 136K: value too great for base (error token is "136K")

was fixed in a past version. You will now see on line 1417:

Code: Select all

declare -i CSIZE=`tr -d [:alpha:] <<<$HSIZE`

which removes the K from the size allowing the declaration to be valid.

stoped at downloading salix files so I must edit /etc/usm/mirrors-salix.txt (unhashed another mirrors) but now it works so it was probably selected US mirror problem at weekend.

[brokenman]

Thanks Tome. The next version will open a GUI from the menu. The mirror was probably just for the weekend. Seems to work ok here now. I will add a GUI to edit the mirrors also.
