Packages Repository, fluxbox - idesk - etc Options

[zogs]

Hi
if you want fluxbox, idesk, irssi or other packages precompiled for your OepnBSD 4.0 in your zaurus
you can put your PKG_PATH in http://www5.autistici.org/c0de/obsd/pkg4.0/

here if you want a howto for setting some pkg_path for your pkg_add [simple howto for setting PKG_PATH]

sorry my english I'm drinking

[jpmatrix]

i was thinking about something like that...
what about putting our compiled packages on a public ftp somewhere?
i'm compiling minimo right now

ok..do you have a public ftp?

i'm compiling minimo right now

if you want, for the moment, put your minimo
in http://www5.autistici.org/c0de/obsd/pkg4.0/
send me a email

[jpmatrix]

so here are mine,

http://matrixmen.free.fr/zaurus/openbsd/packages/

i don't know if it minds if they were compiled under 4.0beta...

[zogs]

GOOD !!

if you don't remember, you can check the version in 4.0 ports, an example for fluxbox:

bash# cat /usr/port/x11/fluxbox/Makefile | grep "VERSION="


Can you give me a account for put my packages precompiled in the tree?

[jpmatrix]

send me your email and i'll send you my desktop personal ftp account. then i'll publish the packages on my public ftp.

anyone who want to post can send me their email


PS:
more packages can be found here too :

from
http://www.planetofidiots.com/zaurus/

it would be great if we could have only one master ftp site for our zaurus packages !

Repository for OpenBSD 4.1 on Zaurus

simple and fast howto

OpenBSD 4.1 run very well on my Zaurus sl-c3200

[jpmatrix]

great!
how usable and stable do you find openbsd4.1 on your zaurus?
the only thing i'd miss is the bluetooth dialup networking item...

[zogs]

mozilla-firefox added in my repository

p.s.: compiled in 3 days and 3 nights

jpmatrix: 4.1 it's better, more stable and usable

I wonder if the feed http://www.planetofidiots.com/pub/OpenBSD/...ackages/zaurus/ is still working. It is not browsable.

*sigh*
One of my pet peeves of the universe, and now I'm one of the culprits! Ugh. My webhost decided to migrate planetofidiots.com to a new box with directory listings shut off, in a clandestine operation no less. Spent an hour on the phone with em today, it'll be available soon-ish. I'm starting a 4.1+ spin cycle too, looks like there'll be no shortage of plug n play...

Looking forward to more ready made packages! So my zaurus will have fewer sleepless nights ... :lol
Thanks in advance.

btw I just set up OpenBSD also on Mac using Parallels. The installation process is almost identical as on Zaurus. Kinda cool.

[ZDevil]

I've installled everything from http://www5.autistici.org/c0de/obsd/pkg4.1/. All the packages install successfully, except gaim and pygtk, which requires py-cairo but it is missing in the feed. Does anyone here have the package? Thanks.

(I am still waiting for my Ambicom wifi CF to have proper access to feeds and sources.)
