Installing Dropline Gnome in Slackware 9.1
Hey,
When I try to use Dropline Installer in Slackware 9.1, this message comes up: Code:
Error: Your system is missing required software to install Dropline GNOME. The programs and libraries listed as 'not found' must be installed in order to proceed. Please ensure the following Slackware packages are installed: Thanks in advance |
If you installed from CD, they are on there. You must have chosen to not install very many packages.
|
Go to Slackware packages
Search for each package that you want to download and download it. Install the packages (as 'root') as follows : Code:
installpkg 'package_name' |
Since you're missing pkgtool, you have a major problem, since you need it to install packages. I suspect you'll need to install it by hand. Start by downloading this package:
ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware/slackware/a/pkgtools-9.1.0-i486-4.tgz Next, untar it (tar xzf pkgtools-9.1.0-i486-4.tgz) into your / directory. Then: cd /install chmod 744 doinst.sh ./doinst.sh You should now be able to run pkgtool. Check that it works, then choose 'Exit'. Remove the /install dirctory, you don't need it any more. Now, so that your system knows that pkgtool is installed, you'll need to install it properly using pkgtool itself, so run installpkg /path/to/pkgtools-9.1.0-i486-4.tgz Next up, grab the other missing packages from either the slackware ftp site, or a suitable mirror: ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware/slackware/l/aspell-0.50.3-i386-3.tgz ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware/slackware/ap/cdparanoia-IIIalpha9.8-i386-1.tgz ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware/slackware/a/elflibs-9.1.0-i486-2.tgz ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware/slackware/a/grep-2.5-i386-2.tgz ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware/slackware/d/perl-5.8.0-i486-5.tgz ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware/slackware/l/pilot-link-0.11.8-i486-2.tgz ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware/slackware/a/sed-3.02-i486-1.tgz ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware/slackware/a/coreutils-5.0-i486-4.tgz ftp.slackware.com/pub/slackware/slackware/slackware/n/wget-1.8.2-i386-2.tgz Pop them into a directory to gether, cd to that directory, and enter installpkg * Hopefully that should get you fixed up. |
