OK from PPM, but it's version 2.8.2. I 1st tried abiword-common, but that's the one which is not working.Quote:
Could install either AbiWord 2.8 or 2.9, but don't work.
Open PPM and click configure button and then ok without touching the choiced repos. Then close it and reopen PPM. Now exprimo repo has been enabled. Type abiword.
Gnumeric 1.10.8 OK but starts with error "/root/%u no such file or directory"
Lots of fixes see http://www.tuxera.com/community/release-history/* ntfs-3g from a 2010.3.6 version to 2012.1
-----> why ? what benefits there is to upgrade it compared to squeeze default one. Just upgrading something is not my priority.
But this pet works http://www.datafilehost.com/download-b2aa69a5.html
See changelog: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/news.php?entries=allGparted from 0.7 to 0.12
----> see above question. What benefits there is. You will need to compile all lib*mm files as static and then compile latest Gparted as static against them. Or install those big libpangomm etc lib*mm files as shared and then compile Gparted as shared. I have managed without those big lib*mm libs all this time.
Several times new Gparted has broken something with Puppy installer scripts like Puppy Universal Installer. Again...I would need to know how does newer Gparted benefit Puppy users.
such as
Unable to grow and shrink FAT16 and FAT32 file systems
Unable to shrink HFS and HFS+ file systems
Unable to determine used and unused sectors in HFS and HFS+ file systems
Unable to erase file system signatures on partition create and format
FAT16 and FAT32 file system moves performed internally by GParted instead of by libparted
Other key changes include:
Fix size off by one sector with unrecognized disk label
Fix GParted crashes with assertion (head_size <= 63)
Requires libparted-2.4 or higher
Well since version 0.11 there is WMA lossless support, 0.10 also provides new codecs -> ffplayI will use Ffmpeg 0.91 whence there is something which is missing from it. Upgrading ffmpeg will mean large depending multimedia applications recompile, for example VLC depends on the version it has been compiled against. Not very delicious choice just to upgrade it and all other apps which needs it.
But there still muxing bugs esp. with aac, which I hope to see fixed in next release.
Indeed, it's on other Puppies, now try with large Mpix images (>12Mpix) and you'll readily see the advantage.Quote:
Replace Viewnor by Gthumb, which is way faster and more complete.
.... I will keep Viewnior as default viewer because it is familiar to Puppy users and fast enough.
hope to see it than.GIMP 2.8 is out. It needs newer libs than squeeze provide.
Thanks
