linus72 · 02-04-2010, 01:22 PM

again when it builds it the output is saying slim.conf.new and rc.4.new
so its not working or what?

gapan · 02-04-2010, 01:23 PM

Can you please show me the SLKBUILD file you're using?

linus72 · 02-04-2010, 01:25 PM

OK

heres the slkbuild I just edited as you and ponce said and it failed

Code:

#Maintainer: George Vlahavas <vlahavas~at~gmail~dot~com>

pkgname=slim
pkgver=1.3.1
pkgrel=1gv
arch=i486
source=slim-1.3.1.tar.gz
sourcetemplate=
docs=("readme" "install" "copying" "changelog" "authors" "news" "todo" "themes")
options=('noautodotnew')
dotnew=('etc/slim.conf')

build() {
	cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
	sed -i "s/CFLAGS=/CFLAGS+= /" Makefile
	make || return 1
	make install DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg

        echo "mv /etc/rc.d/rc.4.new /etc/rc.d/rc.4" >> $startdir/pkg/install/doinst.sh
}

linus72 · 02-04-2010, 01:27 PM

Heres where the build failed

Code:

test -e /root/Desktop/SLIM/nubuild/pkg/etc/slim.conf || \
		install -D -m 644 slim.conf /root/Desktop/SLIM/nubuild/pkg/etc/slim.conf && install -D -m 644 rc.4 /root/Desktop/SLIM/nubuild/pkg/etc/rc.d/rc.4
cp: cannot stat `/root/Desktop/SLIM/nubuild/src/icelite': No such file or directory
./build-slim.sh: line 180: /root/Desktop/SLIM/nubuild/pkg/install/doinst.sh: No such file or directory
build() failed.

why use the SLKBUILD if build-slim.sh also came with it?

ponce · 02-04-2010, 01:28 PM

I repeat, I don't know salix buildscript, but I think you don't need my line there with

Code:

options=('noautodotnew')

also, reading this

Code:

cp: cannot stat `/root/Desktop/SLIM/nubuild/src/icelite': No such file or directory

I think you need icelite theme is src folder.

linus72 · 02-04-2010, 01:34 PM

I'm giving up on this one I think
now the build-slim.sh, which was working, now also quits

both the SLKBUILD and build-slim.sh "create a src and pkg folder, not me
all my stuff is in slim-1.3.1 folder which i make into tar.gz and then run build.sh whatever...
shit

I just waan replace the damn rc.4 thats it!

gapan · 02-04-2010, 01:36 PM

Well, of course it fails. Do you notice an mv line in my SLKBUILD? You also have to provide sources in the source line, which you stripped for no reason. Use something like this:

Code:

#Maintainer: George Vlahavas <vlahavas~at~gmail~dot~com>

pkgname=slim
pkgver=1.3.1
pkgrel=1gv
arch=i486
source=("http://download.berlios.de/slim/slim-1.3.1.tar.gz" "rc.4" "icelite.tar.gz")
docs=("readme" "install" "copying" "changelog" "authors" "news" "todo" "themes")
options=('noautodotnew')
dotnew=('etc/slim.conf')
url=http://slim.berlios.de/

)


build() {
	cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
	sed -i "s/CFLAGS=/CFLAGS+= /" Makefile
	make || return 1
	make install DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg
	THEMES="icelite"
	for i in $THEMES; do
		cp -a $startdir/src/$i $startdir/pkg/usr/share/slim/themes
	done
	chown -R root:root $startdir/pkg/usr/share/slim/themes
	sed -i "s/current_theme\(.*\)/current_theme icelite/" $startdir/pkg/etc/slim.conf
	mkdir -p $startdir/pkg/etc/rc.d
	cp $startdir/src/rc.4 $startdir/pkg/etc/rc.d/
}

Make sure the theme's filename is icelite.tar.gz and it extracts to a directory named "icelite", or change the source line near the top and the cp -a line in the for loop (which is not needed if you only have one theme by the way).

linus72 · 02-04-2010, 01:41 PM

OK
I'm about as good with bash,whatver as I am with html, so...

I'm gettin more confused by the moment

Anyway I could just give you my source Gapan and you do it??

gapan · 02-04-2010, 01:45 PM

I could, but how would you learn anything like that?

If you read my previous post carefully, I'm sure you'll find the way to do it eventually.

And another way to accomplish what you want, which is also a lot cleaner, is leave the slim package with no rc.4 script at all, and rebuild the sysvinit-scripts package with your edited rc.4. Here's the source from slackware: ftp://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/linux/slackwar...vinit-scripts/

linus72 · 02-04-2010, 01:45 PM

Damnit
running the SLKBUILD overwrites the build-slim.sh does it?
there went 3 hours of work...

LOL, of course it does.

Code:

man slkbuild
man SLKBUILD

for more.

linus72 · 02-04-2010, 01:46 PM

Gapan I have been asking what pkg holds rc.d,
Thank you as all I need to cxhange is the stupid rc.4 script

I'll try it though with my build-slim.sh now vaporized/changed I'm back at square1
maybe I'll try later

linus72 · 02-04-2010, 01:55 PM

OK

so, now how do I build that sysvinit stuff?
./configure,etc or what?

LOL
I just tried ./sysvinit-scripts.SlackBuild
and of course it failed

You need to get everything from that source directory, including the scripts directory with every file in it.
