How could I install ibus-typing-booster on Slackware? Is there a Slackbuild? The Debian package lists some dependencies which seem to also be on SlackBuilds.org.
What do you mean "ibus-typing-booster preferences" ?
the schema is installed here:
Code:
$ ls /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/ | grep typing-booster
org.freedesktop.ibus.engine.typing-booster.gschema.xml
Also, third-party software assumes that you have a full version of Slackware installed
For this reason, only those dependencies that are not provided by a full version of Slackware are listed in "REQUIRES="
Probably needs a doinst.sh to run glib-compile-schemas to update the gschema database.
Edit: sbopkglint reports the following:
Code:
Running test: 45-doinst...
--- doinst.sh is missing, package needs one, with gtk-update-icon-cache
--- doinst.sh is missing, package needs one, with update-desktop-database
--- doinst.sh is missing, package needs one, with glib-compile-schemas
Along with some other errors due to not following the sbo conventions, but the doinst.sh routines above should be part of the package to install properly.

Thx
Side note: this is absolutely not a SBo "compliant" slackbuild. And for now, I won’t probably maintain it
It’s just (like I said) a first try, that clearly needs to be improved
Yeah, they are sticklers for compliance…
I'll see if I can make it comply and give you credit.
sbo-maintainer-tools is a very useful tool if you want to upload a Slackbuild on SBo
In this case, I only focused on the build part, not the compliance.
There are some adjustments to make, but the main part is there
Thanks. That worked, but I can't install dictionaries. I'm not sure why. Nothing happens when I push the button to install missing dictionaries.
I have pyenchant-2.0.0-x86_64-1_SBo instaled, too.
Update: I needed hunspell-en.
