Building Cluster Puppy - made with Woof-CE - all help appreciated!

[taersh]

Hi.

I'm trying to build Cluster Puppy -made with Woof-CE- based on the Ubuntu Hirsute Hippo packages. There's now successfully created the base .sfs and the devx .sfs. Kernel used is 5.4.53. No fdrv .sfs created yet. When booting it goes straight to login root tty1. But then it stops with error messages - see image:

Entering xwin on the prompt does nothing.
Entering Xorg on the prompt gives a black screen.
Setting things up via xorgwizard doesn't change anything.

What am I missing?

It says you are missing gawk. Do you have gawk set to "yes" in DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS?

Another thought is that it might not be finding gawk due to the search path. You could try chrooting into your puppy and seeing if gawk is working.

gawk is a pattern scanning and processing language.
By default it reads standard input and writes standard output.

Examples:
	gawk '{ sum += $1 }; END { print sum }' file
	gawk -F: '{ print $1 }' /etc/passwd
/$

Hm, it seems like Woof-CE is broken.

I have the devx loaded and gcc is in /usr/bin.

Code: Select all

root# which gcc
/usr/bin/gcc
root# 

Though, after downloading busybox at ./3builddistro it complains about gcc not found. So, compiling busybox is not possible and the build interrupts unfinished.

Code: Select all

Any hints anyone of what's going wrong here?

It's gcc inside the devx of the Puppy you're building that's missing, not gcc on the Puppy you're using to run woof-CE.

[dimkr]

And by the way: woof-CE is not broken, quite the contrary. Take a look at https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/w ... py-builder - all these green buttons are working woof-CE configurations that get built continuously on GitHub.

[dimkr]

Take a look at https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/gcc and https://packages.ubuntu.com/hirsute/gcc, you probably tried to use the fossa64 DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS as-is and haven't replaced gcc-9 with gcc-10.

[taersh]

Ok, thanks.

So, that means I have to edit the content of DISTRO_PKGS_SPECS also and change mean parts to current versions.

Oh my GOD. That seems a lot of work to do...
