error message in dpup stretch 7.5ce primary repository for sfs is down

have searched manually thru ilibido and other known repositories without any luck, could anyone point me in the right direction ?

Regards

Hi Bionic64

try this links and tell me if are correct

https://archive.org/download/Puppy_Linux_Stretch

https://sourceforge.net/projects/dpup/files/

cheers

Thanks PipzDex for your quick reply, had looked at the two sites you linked to previously without any luck

I should have been more explicit, the reason for trying to find the primary sfs repository was to obtain a sfs for a late version of Opera web browser to suit 32 version of Dpup Stretch 7.5CE

Regards and Thanks again

I believe 32bit versions of Opera browser have not been produced for a long time now.
If you insist on Opera it will need to be a rather old one, 45 or thereabouts. This might not be suitable if you are looking for something recent.
Consider using one of the alternative Chromium derivatives such as Vivaldi or Iron or perhaps Chromium itself (Debian Stretch build).

Hi OscarTalks, thanks for the quick response and advice
I understand, will look at Palemoon more thoroughly before wasting more time with recent Opera

Regards

I have a similar question - i need to find software for Dpup Stretch 7.5 as it seems to be the pup that has least problems with my CQ60 wifi - but the PPM seems to have trouble locating repositories.

Is there any known repository that the PPM can link to or is stretch too old now?
(Wanting to get Librecad running but seems to need QT libs - which i see available at the link from PipxDex above - but I wondered if there is an official Debian stretch repository rather than taking risks with unknown sources)
