Pcdripper doesn't work in Slacko64-8.0.1

[Flash]

When I start Pcdripper from a console, it immediately asks if I want to rip another disk. That's all it will do. Is there any way I can make it work? Is Plinej still around in the forum?

I attached a screenshot but it refused to display.

Here's the error message I get from the console:

Code: Select all

# pcdripper
widget_combobox_create(): The combobox (GtkCombo) widget has been removed from GTK+ 3 and comboboxtext or comboboxentry are recommended as replacements.

Looks like that the installed gtkdialog is the new gtk3 version, it has changes/limitations (e.g. combobox deprecated), some programs need to be re-written to make use of the gtk3 gtkdialog version.

Here, proof that pcdripper works just fine with latest gtkdialog (0.8.4d).

It will be broken in some Slacko 8.x alpha builds (those before alpha 3, before the fix in gtkdialog), but should work just fine in the 8.2.1 beta.

Thank you. I'll upgrade Slacko to 8.2.1 and see if that fixes the problem. Unless there's a way to fix it without upgrading the whole OS.

According to MochiMoppel, Slacko contains gtkdialogs for both GTK3 and GTK2. Is there a way to point Pcdripper to the right gtkdialog?

When I enter gtkdialog in a console, I get this:

Code: Select all

# gtkdialog

** (gtkdialog:7312): ERROR **: 14:37:12.861: Gtkdialog: Could not find the gtkdialog description in the environment variable 'MAIN_DIALOG'.

Haven't tested, but should work. Edit the pcdripper script, around line 46:

GTKDIALOG=""
if [ "`which gtk2dialog`" != "" ]; then
GTKDIALOG=gtk2dialog
elif [ "`which gtkdialog4`" != "" ]; then
GTKDIALOG=gtkdialog4
elif [ "`which gtkdialog3`" != "" ]; then
GTKDIALOG=gtkdialog3
elif [ "`which gtkdialog`" != "" ]; then
GTKDIALOG=gtkdialog
elif [ "$GTKDIALOG" = "" ]; then
echo "you need to install gtkdialog"
exit 0
fi

You're using an alpha version of Slacko 8.x, don't forget that.

Sorry, haven't been around in the forums for a while. I posted a 3.9.4 version somewhere that I think fixes the issues. Try this version:
