I found GConf on the slackbuild site but not seamonkey-solibs. And I am not sure if they should be installed in any sequence.?

I did find seamonkey-solibs on slackware.com

ftp://ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackwar...3-x86_64-1.txz

I am guessing I can install it using

installpkg

For most slackbuilds the order is vital as the script won't build the package if dependencies aren't met usually (assuming no hand-tuning). For the google-chrome slackbuild it won't matter I don't think since the script is just repackaging a .deb binary package to a slackware friendly format and then installing it. If I remember right I missed the seamonkey dependency on my multilib system and installed it post chrome. On the other hand since you have a google-chrome package unless you deleted it, probably sitting in /tmp somewhere you can just removepkg google-chrome and then reinstall it after the seamonkey dependency.

Well, i am using slackware 13 but felt current would be the source closest to my platform. I certainly did not see were slackware 13 seamonkey can be sourced.

Actually I would prefer to install the minimal seamonkey-solibs ?

32 bit seamonkey solibs

64 bit seamonkey solibs

It's in the patches directory of slackware13.

OK I managed to install the seamonkey solibs but running into problems installing GConf.

Code:

checking if g++ PIC flag -fPIC -DPIC works... yes
checking if g++ static flag -static works... yes
checking if g++ supports -c -o file.o... yes
checking if g++ supports -c -o file.o... (cached) yes
checking whether the g++ linker (/usr/x86_64-slackware-linux/bin/ld -m elf_x86_64) supports shared libraries... yes
checking dynamic linker characteristics... GNU/Linux ld.so
checking how to hardcode library paths into programs... immediate
checking for glib-genmarshal... /usr/bin/glib-genmarshal
FYI:  Will build without *any* debugging code
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking whether to build gtk-doc documentation... no
checking for gtkdoc-check... /usr/bin/gtkdoc-check
checking for DEPENDENT... configure: error: Package requirements (glib-2.0 > 2.14.0 gmodule-2.0 >= 2.7.0 gobject-2.0 >= 2.7.0 ORBit-2.0 >= 2.4.0 dbus-1 >= 1.0.0 dbus-glib-1 >= 0.74) were not met:

No package 'ORBit-2.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables DEPENDENT_CFLAGS
and DEPENDENT_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

I only need ORBit-2.0, right? Can that be found on slackbuilds?

damgar · 04-30-2010, 11:04 AM

Yes, but read the slackbuild page to see if IT has dependencies.

Hello all, just updating you on google chrome installation. I started from scratch by rebuilding slackware. I then successfully installed orbit requiring no other dependencies followed by 64 bit seamonkey solibs. Then chrome itself. Followed by all the other desired packages.

updated the system. Unfortunately exactly as before google would not launch. It now requires

Code:

root@redeemer:/home/siawacsh# google-chrome
/usr/bin/google-chrome: error while loading shared libraries: libnssutil3.so.1d: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
root@redeemer:/home/siawacsh# google-chrome
/usr/bin/google-chrome: error while loading shared libraries: libnssutil3.so.1d: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I am thinking why are these dependencies not listed clearly on the slackbuild site. I might have to rebuild google again...

If you do not install Slackware in full, then it will be your own responsibility to fill the gaps where they appear. Dependency information on slackbuilds.org will never contain packages that are already in Slackware.

The missing file "libnssutil3.so" is part of the "seamonkey-solibs" package. Which is part of Slackware itself, you'll find it in the "l/" directory.

Hi Allien_Bob, would care to be a bit more clearer. When I was rebuilding Slackware I took care to go for the default option of installing everything.

So, you saying is on the installation CD...???
If so, would please give me the command which would install that from the cd?

I certainly don't see a "l/ " directory. Perhaps you meant to / (root) but I used the whereis command to search for it without any results. Am correct in thinking that chrome has to be removed before this procedure?
Thanks in advance.

In install cd you have slackware or slackware64 dir which have subdirs of groups of packages. Subdir l goes for libs. There it should be.

siawash · 05-03-2010, 12:13 PM

Thanks dolphin77. I found the directory in question. Can you show me the command to use?

Would it be something on the lines of script?

./libnssutil3.so...?

damgar · 05-03-2010, 09:50 PM

Code:

cd /opt/google/chrome
ls -l

Look to see what libnssutil3.so.1d is linked to. Chrome uses several links to seamonkey by default. Firefox has the same files so you can relink these, or if you don't want Seamonkey at all you can probably get by with creating a symlink to point everything to firefox. This has worked for me when there were missing seamonkey packages.

I must note here, that when I installed 32 bit google-chrome on my multilib-current system recently I had to install an entire 32 bit seamonkey to get working SSL in google-chrome.

It does not look to be linked to anything. I am assuming >> indicates a link.

In any case I have flash working on firefox after the slackware rebuild. This brings me back to the issue of stability. I cannot getaway from idea that when we talk about slackware stability it must only relate to the base system. I.e. you don't watch movies online, don't require the latest office apps...etc

damgar · 05-04-2010, 07:42 AM

I have 4 slack systems and all of them work just fine to watch DVD's, youtube, hulu.com. My only complaint comes from flash's 64 bit support which lags WAY behind on 32 bit in my experience. With multilib I have no problems. As far as installing flash player I don't bother with a slackbuild since it's a single file being extracted and copied to the appropriate location.

EDIT: as mentioned

Code:

dtest@dtest:~$ ls -lt /opt/google/chrome/
total 50868
drwx------ 2 root root     4096 2010-04-30 19:36 extensions/

not

Code:

ls

If you didn't install the seamonkey solibs again then you didn't have nssutil3.so. It wasn't included in slack13 by default, and thus is in the "patches" directory from a slackware download mirror.
