@neko
Thnx Very Very Much

On Cinnamon variant , cinnamon-settings and all its derivatives wont run and give this result :

Code: Select all

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pytz'

Post#503 by **Blaze** » 26 Nov 2019, 18:55

Yep, a new two dependencies for Cinnamon 4.4.x: pytz and libtimezonemap

Post#504 by **chromer** » 27 Nov 2019, 11:13

@neko , it's just interesting for me to know whether is it possible to have Aporteus under porteus 5 or 4 structure ?

Post#505 by **neko** » 28 Nov 2019, 11:44

1. "cinnamon-settings" problem
@chromer
Thank you very much for pointing out the problem.

@Blaze
Thank you very much for your solution.

Patch modules: "002-timezone-19.11.27-XXX-1.xzm" module includes "python-pytz and timezonemap" packages.

For APorteus-MULT_ja-v19.11.26-i486.iso:
002-timezone-19.11.27-i686-1.xzm (2 M)
http://www.mediafire.com/file/y019bfhs0 ... i686-1.xzm
md5sum: 040cf1e2441b109218bcd784058b72e5 002-timezone-19.11.27-i686-1.xzm

For APorteus-MULT_ja-v19.11.25-x86_64.iso:
002-timezone-19.11.27-x86_64-1.xzm (2 M)
http://www.mediafire.com/file/77xdn1v9h ... 6_64-1.xzm
md5sum: b770a88c719d4a55bab8b56b95773efa 002-timezone-19.11.27-x86_64-1.xzm

APorteus-v19.11.26-i486.iso/APorteus-v19.11.25-x86_64.iso doesn't have a patch.
The built ISO by these "ISO builder"s will be adapted with 002-timezone-19.11.27-i686-1.xzm/002-timezone-19.11.27-x86_64-1.xzm patch.

-----------------------------
It will take time to respond. (For "ISO builder")
In relation to the problem, I investigated whether or not "/usr/lib/girepository-1.0/" was deleted for the purpose of reducing the package size.

In the 32BIT version, the "timezonemap" package is in the prototype database
https://arch.eckner.net/archlinux32/i68 ... y-testing/ ,
and I have begun to consider how to extract it from there into package management.
In addition, 32BIT does not cause any problems even without these packages.
-----------------------------

2. "Aporteus" under "porteus 5 or 4 structure"
@chromer
whether is it possible to have Aporteus under porteus 5 or 4 structure ?

---->
It is not.
Because APorteus:
1) Boot process is controlled with "systemd". (cf: "init")
2) 64bit libraries are set in "/lib" or "/usr/lib". (cf: "/lib64" or "/usr/lib64")
3) The all most packages are gathered from arch database system (cf: slackware database system)
4) The constructed package member of basic module (001,002) is differ.

But some modules might be able to be used in both systems.

Thanks.

Post#506 by **csanchez** » 29 Nov 2019, 23:26

Great! I was wondering if APorteus would abandon the 32bits, I'm glad to see it didn't

btw folks, now we have Advanced Chrome for linux too

This is a good Chromium fork
check: https://browser.taokaizen.com/
I think can be nice to have this here too

Post#507 by **neko** » 30 Nov 2019, 09:06

@csanchez
Thank you for your interest to APorteus.

I created the shell script
that gets most recent version "Advanced Chrome Linux" and convert to xzm module
by running on Porteus 4, 5 and APortesu.
