Good evening everyone, here is the link for python3-3.8.2. Compiled in Bionicpup64 with the usual recipe. I had some problems with the tkinter module but I solved with a version of the module extracted from the python3-tk package of Ubuntu's repository.

Python-3.8.2-x86_64_8.0.sfs - sha256 --> aed62152aae46dd529d4e2b47bfde4c39a2e17884ab8d2c00377c20a04cec657

Greetings

Good evening everyone, here is the link for version 8.2.390 of GVim, obviously also contains vim. Compiled on Bionicpup64 with the following recipe: and then I used dir2pet to create the pet file. I use it basically as the default text editor.

GVim-8.2.390-x86_64-bionic.pet -> sha256 = 1efc0463212f26e237795bd4c88c022c2557a6942e87468fa609596136495995

EDIT: Updated to the latest version, at the time of writing, added right-click option.

Regards

Hello corvus,

thank you for sharing this! It will come in handy for a project.

If you liked to play with Lego bricks, this might be interesting for you. It supports you to build objects with Lego bricks.

Hello
My wife wanted to use Skype for some eLearning communication during the lockdown (Corona). Well I failed with the first trials from quickpet repository. It turned out, that the newer skype versions require restricted access rights to be started. So I had to do the Spot-start again, which worked. Package can be downloaded here.

Yes, indeed, it is possible. I recently stumbled over Microsoft teams for Linux. I could not resist to build a package from it. It really seams to work. Means, all the benefit you know from business work with Microsoft teams could be used for private activities. I am still trying out the limits.

If you are not allergic to Microsoft you could download it here...

An updated version of Google Earth. No specific modification was necessary to build the package.

I intended to use a java program but Java from the quickpet is very old and might lead to problems. I built a package of the latest java version (1.8.241). To start a java program, one could use a right click on the jar-file or the java-starter I fould elsewhere in the WEB.

I recently found my CDs of Serious Sam: one of my games, we played very often in a group. Unfortunately it cannot be run on modern computers under Windows10. Well, Croteam released the source code of the game some years before. Sebastien Turban (PtitSeb) reworked the code, so that it can be compiled and run natively under Linux. I compiled it under Bionicpup64 and I am astonished how well it runs. One drawback: I am not allowed the share the game content. That means to play the game, you would need the original game content files (these are the 0 byte files which end up with .cro that would need to be replace).

What we played most is Unreal Tournament. Of course, not the 2004 edition but the original one from 1999. But for that version I did not yet figure out how to run it natively under Linux 64 bit (for 32 bit this might it be possible and I am working on it). At first we have to be satisfied with the UT2004 version, which was very impressive these days and requested a lot of computer performance... of course nothing compared to a modern action game.

'Games' subForum is feeling lack of your these posts, dude _)

Well, it took some time to figure out, how to build a stable version. But this one works on my computer. One drawback: sound might be an issue on some computers. On my standard-computer, sound works out of the box. No complains. On my wife's computer, sound doesn't work. I tried many things using aoss but I failed. Maybe I will start another trials in summer.
Unreal Tournament is available only as a 32bit application. The 32 bit libs of Bionic are used, but they are included. It is not necessary to load the 32 bit compatibility sfs.
I also included the bonus pack maps. It uses the "Game of the Year" content as a basis which can downloaded freely in the internet. That's the reason why I assume that I can ship it with the game content, different to other packages. So have fun.
Now I have to concentrate on Unreal 1 (Gold edition).

Hello
The is Unreal 1 Gold Community Patch V2.27i (including Return to NaPali). It contains a Linux 32 bit binary which can be executed in Bionic64. The corresponding 32 bit libs are included. The game content is not on board, which means, you should copy the maps from the CD into the maps directory.

Have fun.
