Should be:

tar xzvf $CWD/Pale-Moon-${VERSION}_Release.tar.gz

that's because you have downloaded the tarball using the browser instead of wget: I added an alternate tarball-extracting routine in my branch, will go in the next update

ponce / SBo Experts --

EDIT: Oops posted to the wrong thread ... sorry ...

Something I have wondered about from time-to-time for Source that lives in a git repository ...

What is the SBo Policy on using source files in a SlackBuild that are got-via-git (

) ?

Are there times to use git and other times to not use git ?

If one uses git, is there a way to also git a .md5sum file too ?

Thanks !

The new PaleMoon SlackBuild at SBo works great! Looks like it wasn't a straightforward "configure, make, make install', so good job khronosschoty.

I think those with the segfault must have some hardware-specific problem. That's all I can think of, because lots of us have tried on a clean install with no problems. Of course, the debug output should be helpful, but other than that, maybe try it in a virtual machine? That would isolate it from the real hardware.

It's a puzzling situation for sure, but you can't expect upstream to fix the problem if they can't reproduce it.

Looks like it compiled properly but couldn't find the SlackBuild afterwards (the SlackBuild copies itself into the package's doc directory). Do you have it named differently (case sensitive matters). Maybe you don't have the M on Moon capitalized. What's the output of:

Code:

ls -la ~nitesky/Desktop/Slackware/SlackBuilds/

That looks like one problem. I never have had a problem like this happen with anything I have downloaded and have never had to correct names like with this one

Maybe just grab from SBo this time? https://slackbuilds.org/repository/1...work/PaleMoon/

@Gordie, it looks like you just need to rename the SlackBuild into PaleMoon.SlackBuild (note that P M S and B are all capitalized). After that, you should be good

@kronosschoty, maybe it'd be worth changing the github download link to the following. It would make sure that it will be the same name whether you download it via wget or the browser (github is weird like that).

Code:

https://github.com/MoonchildProductions/Pale-Moon/archive/26.4.1_Release/26.4.1_Release.tar.gz

If you call the "tag" before the filename, you can actually change the filename to whatever you want (so you're not stuck to their naming scheme).

Code:

https://github.com/MoonchildProductions/Pale-Moon/archive/26.4.1_Release/PaleMoon-26.4.1.tar.gz

Either link would work, although with the second one, you'd obviously need to change the SlackBuild a bit to work with the new name, but then the source name is much more inline with most source names.

khronosschoty · 09-24-2016, 01:36 PM

Done.

Does that autoconf 'upgrade/substitute' the autoconf that comes with stock 32 bit Slackware 14.2 (autoconf 2.69)? It won't mess anything else up on the system will it?

orbea · 09-24-2016, 04:49 PM

No, it pretty much does what the stock slackware current firefox slackbuild does, builds an old autoconf and then uses that to build the browser without installing the new autoconf.

khronosschoty's slackbuild built fine for me and the RetroArch emscripten port even works in PaleMoon.

montagdude · 09-24-2016, 07:21 PM

It's because you have it named PaleMoon.Slackbuild, not PaleMoon.SlackBuild. Did you rename it? I just checked the files from SBo and the name is right there.

Gordie · 09-24-2016, 07:45 PM

Running Sbopkg now. Sick of this name game.
It is my own fault really but don't think it is in my power to change things. Have been having trouble seeing the obvious for at least 5 years now. Could be related to the meds I have to take. Not sure. Oh well, no sense getting upset with myself for MISSING THE "B".
Thanks for being patient with me. You guys are the greatest

willysr · 09-24-2016, 07:53 PM

don't forget to run sbopkg -r since i have just pushed a new public update with the fix for PaleMoon alternate source naming
