XBPS Compiled on F96-CE_4 for .xbps Package Building
While working on cleaning up, consolidating and generally trying to get all the .xbps packages that are needed by the PLUG files to put the polish on KLV-Airedale and KLV-Spectr built from FIrstRib build script + PLUG to produce a production ready KLV root file system, it became apparent that since I do most of the work on KLV with a Puppy Linux F96-CE_4, the final creation of the finished .xbps package had to be done on a KLV! That means a SAMBA or FTP file transfer around the LAN. So I wondered this morning what if I compile the Void Linux XBPS package manager in a F96-CE_4..........
I have done this before and did manage it install a Void Linux package in F96-CE_4
in earlier experiments...but this is with a lot of hand holding and then the problem that the PPM
and pkg
have no idea what xbps
is doing or done and vice versa.
But here I just want to see if I can create .xbps
packages from directory alongside PET packages using a F96-CE_4. I have doubts that it will work as envisioned but the weather here is rainy and cold so no work in the garden so.........I'm giving it tryout.
Step one, it works........
