Applications for compiling for within Fossapup64-95 - 3rd Party

@Jasper - interesting. When I compile drivers, I need (for the particular puppy & kernel running) devx & kernel sources, but for anything else, I need devx & kernel headers. I assume either you didn't use those combos, or it wasn't sufficient.

I will start this by stating clearly that I am a beginner and not as familiar with Linux as some of established members of the forum.

I have only been using the DevX files.

The reason for this is that if I used the kernel headers/source for an updated kernel then applications would not function correctly for those who are still using the stock build/ISO.

Am I wrong?

I thought that mix & matching these files would cause errors (DevX and headers). The same would apply if I were to used an updated version of GlibC(?)

Also, yes I was compiling an application earlier (NVME-CLI) which required updated versions of Meson and Cmake to proceed.

I'm sure there are specific cases (i.e. huge difference in kernel age perhaps), but for binaries that should generally not be so.

The same would apply if I were to used an updated version of GlibC(?)

That I have definitely had issues with. I make my kernels with an old ScPup64 (glibc 2.30), to increase compatibility. I did try a later glibc (2.33), but some folk then couldn't run the kernels with their old pups. I am going to try that again in the new year, with warnings.

@ozsouth

Thank you again for explaining this to me.

I do try to follow the comments made by others, but sometimes it can get a little confusing as I appreciate we are all at different levels of knowledge and experience.

It's a shame regarding the use of GlibC as I realise who useful it is for new applications. Will there be more 32bit kernels made available in the new year?

Let me wish and family a happy new year in advance. The updates you have shared have made my OS so much better than I ever expected

@ozsouth

I have always used by default DevX for compiling and realised only recently that Cmake was not configured properly, which always spits out an error re:lbbcurl.so

A few days ago I was compiling a new application that required a newer build of Cmake. I did have one at hand and simply and overwrote my existing files to proceed.

So, just wanted to ask if I had built the application. Would it have run in my OS?

**EDIT** Bless, you, I did not realise how long etc it took to compile a working kernel. So many many thanks for your upoads

autoconf-2.71-x86_64
https://www.mediafire.com/file/4qzivcsq ... 4.pet/file

It needs to be installed as a PET and will be used instead of the older build in the DevX SFS.

I had to use these tools for another application.

Hopefully, they can be of use to others
