Hello all.
Below are Google-Drive download links for a
Debian Pup (Dpup) Stretch 700-a ISO and its
DEVX.

At the moment, only 1 kernel (3.14.79) is available for dpup-stretch when you do a woof-CE dpup-stretch build. But, that said, see Billtoo's great workaround post in this thread if you want to try another kernel.
The ISO is a bit large, no, wait, let's be honest, it is a 'beached whale' at 341MB
But in my defense this heft is because it includes the latest FirefoxESR (45.7.0). Also, do note that this FirefoxESR has a lot of changes to its "about:config" file (
it's been "hardened", as they say, quite a bit) as I always remove security risks along with Mozilla's and Google's ability to track you through their (Mozilla's) "telemetry" and Google's mis-named "Google-Safebrowsing" & 'Google Datareporting" tracking (all these settings have been blanked). Also, other settings like browser.cache, browser.search, device, camera, experiment, formfill https, geo, media.peer & media.eme, prefetch, pocket, security, social, sessions, and tls have been changed to vastly increase browser security. You can easily re-set FirefoxESR back to its original state if you don't like these settings. Additionally, only two add-ons are included, the vlc-browser plug-in (since Oscar's VLC.pet was installed as the media player) and also "ublock origin", about the only add-on I trust.
This Dpup-Stretch, as mentioned above, was built from Woof-CE, something we in this thread are all trouble-shooting and testing, along with enjoying using. It is hoped this ISO will get others to download it, taking a look, testing, and generating more feedback
(this is all code for, at this time in early releases, "please don't expect too much and/or support").
For this Dpup-Stretch build, other inclusions aside from the standard dpup-woof-CE ones included are:
--redshift
--pupmd5sum.sh (note I modded this to also allow for sha256 & sha512 checks)
--asap3
--firewall_ng
--peasyfirewallmonitor
--glipper
--take a shot
--arandr (
I was building and modding this dpup on a dual screen setup, you may have to reset the background image via Menu & 'Nathan Wallpaper Setter'.)
--ttuuxxx's geany icons fix, along with my numerous .desktop menu fixes
--ttuuxxx's Notecase fix
--vlc, via Oscar's wheezy vlc.pet
--oxygen-icon-theme (just testing PPM & installing)
--adwaita-icon-theme (again, only testing PPM)
At the moment, you'll also get a 2nd jwm tray.. The main jwm tray is at the top, the 2nd is the bottom tray. The 1st tray (top) is modded normally by JWM Configuration Manager via the Menu, but the 2nd tray, if you want to mod it, has to be modded directly in /root/.jwrmc (and .jwm) if you want to make changes (
just do whatever you want to that file & save the changes in both places, then re-start window manager via the Menu exit).
I set this desktop look & feel up so that the windows (which are open) appear on the top traybar, along with the normal retrovol, firewall, freemapapplet, xload, the date and an exit icon at the very right. No conky, yet, but you can install it easily. At the bottom of the desktop is just a centered jwmtray (the 2nd tray), with the programs I thought would be used most frequently. Also note, I have incorporated both the desktop trash function and the desktop save file function into this 2nd tray. I don't like anything on the desktop (
thus why I removed the maddening "Show Desktop" icon/shortcut from all trays). If and when you set up your savefile for the first time, upon shutdown & next boot, the savefile button will appear on the desktop like it normally does for all pups that use a savefile/folder. Since I now have this 'save' shortcut embedded in the 2nd bottom tray, if you want to permanently remove the desktop-boot-generated save icon from ever being generated again (you do not lose any save functionality) on the desktop, just go to '/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit' and put a "#" in front of the lines of everything below the "############MISC Desktop STUFF##############" section (only this section, there are 17 lines total you will put a "#" in front of) and stopping at the #############PERSONAL BOOT SCRIPT############## section. From then on, your pupsave will be embedded in the bottom 2nd tray (any re-mastering will negate these changes & bring back the desktop generated icon/shortcut).
The default woof-CE Dpup-Stretch build includes quite a bit,
but if you want something like an email client and/or office document manager, you need to use the included script (for LibreOffice) or install something like Abiword/Sylpheed via the PPM. Or, you could help us out here & give compiling a go with OpenOffice (
see Billtoo, I think he's already accomplished this on dpup-stretch). One note about PPM: there is still a bug in its GUI appearance where the PPM interface shows whatever you search/look for as "already being installed". Of course this is not the case. So just ignore that, and continue doing what you want when using PPM. Otherwise, it seems PPM works (one or two internal icons are missing from PPM, though you probably won't even notice it but I just wanted all to know that it does not affect PPM's overall appearance and/or function). Lastly, in Menu, you will find one or two stubborn menu items that just don't want to hold the fixes applied to them. Like, X-soldier in Games/Fun, needs its desktop and menu re-set, and 'gdmap' in 'Filesystem'.
A few noted things the woof-CE includes by default in Dpup-Stretch-700:
--PCManFM
--Rox
--Uextract
--Geany and Leafpad
--and most nearly every other thing you'd expect in a pup (like Tahr or Slacko)
Thank you to anyone reading this far,
and if you try it, a bigger 'thank you' for downloading. Again, apologies for the ISO size, but I felt a few would like to have a good ole' fashioned browser included (instead of just Dillo) and possibly have a hardened browser at that. Please know this is my newbie-virgin-attempt at building/customizing a pup/ISO, so let me apologize ahead of time if you find something terribly out-of-whack. The only reason I was able to even attempt this was because of all the others (
Billtoo, Musher, Oscar, Ttuuxxx, et al) in this thread. Also, I reiterate again, support of this ISO pup is not what it was mainly uploaded for. As mentioned previously, it is/was hoped this ISO, & possibly its DEVX, would be downloaded by some of the murga regulars to help further along the development of dpup-stretch. Thus, into the 'murga-wilds' I humbly release this......while at the same time I prepare to run far, far away before the murga-abuse begins to be catapulted
