Well, I've tried to do a usrmerge build of NoblePup32 and all did not go well..... I set USR_SYMLINKS=yes in _00build.conf but the build failed.... Looking at 3builddistro: the chroot at line 713 is attempted way before line 1096: [ "$USR_SYMLINKS" = "yes" ] && usrmerge r...

You forgot to quote $0.
Should \$0 instead of $0 on line 2.
But why do it this way? Why not just use shell functions instead of eval?

Many thanks JB...... this is how Woof-CE 3builddistro actions the EXTRA_COMMANDS in _00build.conf

peebee

CLOSED - solution provided by JamesBond - many thanks. I want to add some code into the EXTRA_COMMANDS of Woof-CE 3builddistro to make a mime entry in freedesktop.xml have different extensions. i.e I want to change .m3u & .m3u8 at lines 21 & 22 of cut-freedesktop.xml to .xm3u and .xm3u8 I ha...

Thoughts from BarryK's blog on his experiences with overlayfs:

I just have to give up. When Dr. Okajima retires from developing Aufs, I will also retire from Linux development.

@peebee is there a Conky for this Slackware variant you can recommend? How to get it?

peebee

Looks to me like Ubuntu 24.04 is going usrmerge.........either partially or fully bash and udev have already changed which has caused recent problems so the question is should NoblePup32 go usrmerge? it would make all .sfs which contain bin or sbin or lib unusable......... and would make all old non...

@peebee
the reason is udev

used package version
libgudev-1.0-0_238-3_i386.deb
udev_255.2-3ubuntu2_i386.deb

created a symlink /sbin/udevd -> /usr/bin/udevadm

Now needed kernel modules becomes loaded automatically again and system is working fine

Excellent - many thanks

It will be easier for others to help if you provide an ISO that reproduces the problem.

Neither current versions of Palemoon nor SeaMonkey work any more with BionicPup32..... Chromium & Firefox are still OK

All 4 browsers still work OK in FocalPup32......

H folks, Does Bionicpup32 8.0 support Bluetooth? If does, how to set up a Bluetooth connection? Need any app? Need help! Thanks!

Sorry - no.

peebee

Hi @mmcdonald21

You need to run each app in a terminal and see what errors are reported - all the apps you mention are large ones that probably have missing dependencies..... maybe Qt5........ and others

Cheers!

when i run soffice i get: command not found i got Libreoffice from a post in here it was in a google drive folder, i installed this version libreoffice-5.4.0-x86_64-1. there isn't really any specific reason why i'm running Bionicpup32, i actually would love to switch to a more modern distro that is...

peebee

Most likely missing dependencies.

Run: soffice
in a terminal and see what errors are reported.

Where did you get LibreOffice from? BionicPup32 is getting very old so it's likely that only old versions of apps will run at all.

Are you sure you want to run BionicPup32? Is there a reason?

peebee

Yes, there is an "System Update" application in the menu. I will give a try to see if it works. Thank you so much! BionicPup32NG : https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=165 Latest build : 240208 Nobody has asked - hopefully you have a frugal install - just replace the .sfs etc in t...

future.
