gpe-task-base dependancies
« on: November 04, 2004, 12:37:13 pm »
I'm tying to install gpe on a sl-5500 with oz 3.5.1 bootstrap loaded.

I've been able to get opie-task-base working and now I'm trying gpe.  I've installed gpe_i.0-r-14_arm.ipk and tried to install gpe-task-base.

After a whole lot of screen fly-by it comes up with an error about not being able to resolve a dependancy for 'diet-x11 virtual/xserver'.  I've looked for the diet-x11 and haven't found any packages, there are xservers in the packages list (I'm not sure what the difference is between them though) so I thought this might work, but I still get the same dependancy error.

any sugesstions?  and what is the difference between the xservers?

The problem is probably that there is more than one xserver in the feed and ipkg is no oracle. Then again, maybe the dependencies are plain false. Either way I recommend taking this up to gpe@handhelds.org and cc: to oe@handhelds.org

Thanks for the tip.

I'll try installing an xserver and see what happens as well as emailing gpe and oe.
