Installing Tar Archives

[Meanie]

Hello Meanie
I will try it.
When you said:
'if you configure your feed properly, then installing gnumeric will install all the other dependencies as well. '
could you explain me the way I can make all dependencies can be installed automatic. (this is different of compile archives, true?)
Thanks for your help

First you need all the dependent packages downloaded into your feed location (on card) or Internet access to the online feed. Then if the gnumeric package has been put together properly when you install it, all the dependent packages will be automatically installed too.

I suspect that this may not be the case, so if it doesn't work straight away, keep installing the other packages that Meanie listed above. The error messages may also give you some hints about what other packages you need if there are others. Keep installing things until it works!

Hello Karlto

I try this, and later of a 5 files more than package dependencies says, I am stopped at the next mesage:
'gnumeric: error while loading shared libraries: libgnomevfs-2.so.0:cannot open shared object file: No file or directory'
I founded this file (with ipkfind): 'libgnomevfs2-0_2.0.4-6_arm.ipk'
and this other:
'gnome-vfs-1.0.5.tar'
but I do not know how to install tar archives, I coppied 'libgnomevfs2-0_2.0.4-6_arm.ipk' into my feed directory (where are the others ipk files), tried to install with package manager, but this is not included in the installed packages
and when i try gnumeric appear the same message:
'gnumeric: error while loading shared libraries: libgnomevfs-2.so.0:cannot open shared object file: No file or directory'
Anyone knows why happen it, I nned other file?
And why there arent all needed ipk files in one directory?

I installed with exit thunder-bird  
but as i only had 17 mb free on /root I desinstalled ii, and now I have 31 mb free.
I try to install 'GIMP', and appear a windows that says: ' willcome to the Gimp 2.3 user Installatión'
but i can not do nothing with this, only i can close it with space bar. Anyone have any idea about it!  
Then I need your help.

OK...

1) ignore the tar files

2) yes, you do need to install the libgnomevfs...ipk file.
A proper feed directory contains info about the packages, and you need to run 'ipkg update' when you change its contents (see Meanie's link above for proper documentation). Or, you can just install directly from the file instead of using a feed - try this first. I think when you successfully install this package the error will stop.

As far as gimp goes, perhaps you need to move the window (hold down alt) so you can get to the next button?

Hello Karlto
I solved the gnumeric installatión with the help of all of you.      
The Gimp problem is different.
I moved the big windows and I was unable to found any other windows hidden.
This is a mystery for my.
And seems a good program to use.  
Any ideas will be wellcome
Thanks to all
