So I noticed a few things. When I did the update repo on mistfires package manager, I get the following errors.s243a wrote:https://www.dropbox.com/s/e4hgfctfpbd25 ... 6.iso?dl=0

- I installed mistfire's package manager but it isn't working write. Use the following command to start ig:- as before sc0ttmann's package manager is installed. It also comes with a gui but there are some issues with it. Perhaps due to my configuration.Code: Select all
ppm
- wbar is installed but not configured (it's a side panel)
I did not install petget before installing either mistfire's or sc0ttmann's package manager. This could be the cause of some issues. "X11 aps" was installed because the puppy startups scripts called xload. However, this isn't needed and we don't use the other X11 aps. Full Perl isn't required but the only reason I installed it is that I was troubleshooting the perl in urxvt. Future isos will likely not have full-perl.

Also, changed. It now looks like:

See the orginal before conversion:
woof-next/woof-code/rootfs-packages/puppy_ppm_configs_devaun_ascii/var/packages/DISTRO_COMPAT_REPOS
The missing value is set in /etc/DISTRO_SPECS
Code: Select all
DISTRO_COMPAT_VERSION='ascii'
I also see that ${DBIN_ARCH} wasn't used in the conversion process...so this is another part of the url I need to fix. I also wonder if scottmann's PKG depends on this file and what issues these changes might cause.
Edit:1 the double dash in the file name is caused by a missing ${DISTRO_COMPAT_VERSION}
Edit: 2 I figured out that /var/packages/DISTRO_COMPAT_REPOS, is getting overwritten with the info in /var/packages/database/COMPAT_DB_REPO via the function /usr/bin/sync-repo.
So anyway, I'll now edit COMPAT_DB_REPO and see if mistfires package manager works for me.
