Tons of errors while installing stuff on OZ 3.5.1
« on: September 23, 2004, 04:13:59 pm »
Hi,
I'm installing some packages on my Zaurus SL5500 with OpenZaurus 3.5.1 (opie image).
I get tons of error messages:
- packages missing (shfs-modules needed by shfs)
- functions already provided by busybox (when installing unzip)
- zaurus hangs, I have to reboot (when installing firefox)
Is that normal?

I don't know about the hanging, but I've been getting a ton of compatibility libs missing. Firefox finally installed but didn't work; I've tried installing the libs needed for Opera, but those libs in turn need other things installed that won't install because they can't figure out that most of the libs they need are already there and want to use older ones, so it errors out, etc. I dunno, maybe it's just me doing something wrong, but I'm still enjoying OZ regardless. I'm thinking I'm going to go back to an older release for a while, just to see if I can get some more things to work.
