"This guy" is still learning quite a bit about Linux even after more than two years of daily use. Although I spend a lot of time at the CLI, sbopkg is the first application I've used that called an editor, therefore it's the first that prompted me to set the editor environmental variable. I'd done a lot with my .bashrc, but not that. Frankly, I run a lot of stuff from within a terminal in Emacs from a virtual terminal. Having vi start within Emacs was a little freaky. :-) Nevertheless, after reading the comments and doing a little more research, I can see how my comment in the article was off-base.

I think it was just a question of whether to have it there in the first place. Personally, I don't see a need to add it there since most users set it in .bashrc, /etc/profile or whatever. But, it can certainly be added there manually if someone wants to put it there. -- Chess Griffin GPG Key: 0x0C7558C3 http://www.chessgriffin.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sbopkg-discuss" group.

When building a package, one can either build from the original .info/SlackBuild or the edited .info/SlackBuild. I just used this to build an updated package for wicd 1.5.3 (1.5.2 is in the repo) and it built fine. If there are no major problems, then I'll probably release sbopkg 0.12.0 soon.

Some of the highlights include: * New code that better catches MD5SUM failures and offers the opportunity to delete the corrupted source. * New menu entry that allows a user to manually delete the saved sources for any particular software in the SBo repository. Thanks to Drew Ames for the bug reports and suggestions that led to both of these two fixes and additions. * Add in ability to edit the *.info file in a similar manner to editing the SlackBuild. With this addition, a user can now manually update the .info and SlackBuild from within sbopkg and build and install an updated package before it hits the repo. If you use vi/vim as your $EDITOR and want an easy way to insert the MD5SUM of a new source tarball, try ":r! md5sum /path/to/new/source". Then clean up the inserted information into a proper .info file layout. Thanks to nille for prodding me to get this done. * Move the editing functions into a submenu to better organize the 'info item' menu for each software selection. Thanks to nille for the suggestion. * Several error-checking and graceful exit cleanups and fixes. Please check out the included ChangeLog for more details. As always, please report any bugs to me via email, the sbopkg mailing list, or, preferably, using the Issue tracker on the project's website. I can also be found in #sbopkg, #slackbuilds, and ##slackware on freenode. A noarch package and source tarball for version 0.12.0 can be found at the sbopkg project website: http://code.google.com/p/sbopkg Enjoy! -- Chess Griffin GPG Public Key: 0x0C7558C3 http://www.chessgriffin.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sbopkg-discuss" group.

I had some other reports via email and the majority of these issues hinge on what I call the 'decimal' problem in Bash, where, for example, 3.9 is 'greater than' 3.11 -- or where a Flash version that starts with 9 is 'greater than' a Flash version that starts with 1 -- since Bash compares the ascii values of strings and doesn't really understand decimals. I've spent many hours over the last several days testing out many different fixes, including using bc, but in the end, opted to use the brute force way: shove a zero in front of single decimals, so 3.9 becomes 03.09 which will now test as less than 03.11. Or, in the case of Orbit2, another problem child, 02.14.05 is now less than 02.14.16. :-) Anyway, I just committed some code to svn which (hopefully) addresses this issue. If anyone wants to pull from svn and test, I would greatly appreciate it. -- Chess Griffin GPG Key: 0x0C7558C3 http://www.chessgriffin.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sbopkg-discuss" group.

I'll take a look at this and figure out the best way to fix it. A current workaround would be to change --contimeout to --timeout in line 753 of /usr/bin/sbopkg.

Some of the highlights include: * New code has been added to allow the user to cleanly abort the source download by pressing Control-C; thanks to Zordak for the suggestion. * Add in several improvements to the rsync and wget stages, whereby better error messages are detected and displayed, -z is removed from rsync, and other general cleanups; thanks to macavity for the suggestions and patches. * Add in -O option to wget to allow for cases where downloaded source name is different than expected (such as virtualbox-ose); thanks to acidchild for the bug report. * Add in new sbopkg.conf variable TIMEOUT to allow the user to manually set the timeout value for rsync and wget; thanks to macavity for the suggestion. NOTE: this will require users upgrading from previous versions to either merge the new sbopkg.conf into their existing file, or manually add a TIMEOUT=10 (default is 10 seconds) to their existing sbopkg.conf file. * Add in several updatelist fixes; thanks to Erik Hanson for the bug reports. * Add in fix where searching for category names would create problems; thanks to nille for the bug report. * Add in some new code in an initial attempt to fix the 'decimal' problem in bash, in which comparing package versions (like 3.9 versus 3.11) would result in incorrect updatelist results. This code should fix some updatelist errors reported by Erik Hanson, samac, and Joao Felipe Santos. This new code needs testing, so please check the updatelist and then consider running it with the debug feature enabled and check the results the again. See the UPDATELIST-DEBUGGING document for details on how to enable debugging. * Fix size of several dialog boxes for a better UI; thanks to Erik Hanson for the bug report. * Several error-checking and graceful exit cleanups and fixes. Please check out the included ChangeLog for more details. As always, please report any bugs to me via email, the sbopkg mailing list, or, preferably, using the Issue tracker on the project's website. I can also be found in #sbopkg, #slackbuilds, and ##slackware on freenode.

I would _really_ appreciate some testers on this. Please pull down svn following the instructions here: http://code.google.com/p/sbopkg/source/checkout Then, backup your current /etc/sbopkg/sbopkg.conf, copy trunk/src/etc/sbopkg/sbopkg.conf.new to /etc/sbopkg/sbopkg.conf (making any necessary local changes), and then run sbopkg directly from trunk/src/usr/bin/sbopkg. You can check out the new sbopkg.conf and edit the RSYNCFLAGS and WGETFLAGS if desired. Please let me know if there are any issues. I'd like to get an update out asap. Thanks!

This is a bug-fix release that addresses two concerns: * A fix for OpenOffice.org not being picked up correctly on the updatelist feature. Thanks to Erik Hanson for the bug report. * A fix for a couple issues that appeared with the changes to the rsync and wget flags in version 0.13.0. Thanks to Ken Roberts and Jorge Gaton for the bug reports. To remedy this problem, I have removed TIMEOUT from sbopkg.conf and instead added two optional variables, RSYNCFLAGS and WGETFLAGS. These options have been populated with some of the flags that were previously in the sbopkg script itself. This means that folks can manually tweak the flags used by rsync and wget, although in most cases the defaults should be left alone. This also means that for those who are upgrading sbopkg from a previous version will again need to manually update their sbopkg.conf from the sbopkg.conf.new that is installed and merge the changes. Sorry about these changes to the configuration file, but hopefully they are for the better since these changes fix the problems mentioned previously and also give the users a bit more control over the flags used, if desired. Please check out the included ChangeLog for more details. As always, please report any bugs to me via email, the sbopkg mailing list, or, preferably, using the Issue tracker on the project's website.
