And with this 104/5 lines diff -up
the check_deps.sh
would look like this :

[EDIT : the diff -uaNd in the following post works for me now
So I deleted the diff -up attachment ]

diff -up isn't working which I was told at linuxquestions.org
Also there was a problem with geany or pdksh which I tested that day (public domain KornShell ~300KB ) that cutted everything behind the column 72 .

diff -uaNd does work.
(hopefully)
Excuse for any Inconvenience !

ok this is going to drive me nutz
i've been trying to get this to work in puppy 5.20(lucid)*(lupu not luci)

the attached file is basically what check_deps.sh output always looks like in every distro ive tried from 4.x up thru

have tried to change in frugal, full and a few tweaked installs.
(frugal to full aka pupmode=12)

the fist update i do on any 5.20(lupu) install is to update the ppm
(PPM:Configure:Update)

i had originally tried the quickpet "Update Lupu PPM"
didn't seem to change anything

so was this .gz supposed to make the check_deps.sh look like the previous post sshot?
(http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... h&id=34943)

"diff-uaNd-check_deps.sh.patch.gz"

tried to download it an petget wanted to install, so i let it.
still looks like the attached image

can anyone point me in any direction on how to fix this?

I thought about a long big text, but this would belong to a howto section .

Patches are applied with the command

As far as I can see it : `patch` is part of the devx_PUP_VERSION.sfs

Roughly : place the patch file in the dir of the origfile , do a and a unzip the patch.diff.p.patch.gz have a look at it and The diff command seems to work on shellscripts better with The patch should work flawlessly on 5.1.1 but may reject the main part on older puppies because there had been some changes [ some medium-little handwork needed ]
I had not put any changelog remarks in the head part of the file .

Anyway, thanks for the response .
