Triode hard coded the JIVE_VERSION to 0.1.0 in jivelite during
development because he used lua-jit which is not 100% syntax compatible
with the lua 5.1 used in the jive based players.
Most of the 3rd party applets I've tried don't work with a lua-jit based
jivelite.
It's the main reason I changed jivelite for picoreplayer to use the same
lua 5.1 version as the squeezeplay players.
For picoreplayer I will change the version with an update to the
extension, but that's going take a bit as I don't have my pcp build
environments online.
In the meantime, here's how to temporarily override the version in pcp.
# create jive folder and copy JiveMain.lua
sudo mkdir -p /home/tc/.jivelite/userpath/jive
sudo cp -p /opt/jivelite/share/jive/jive/JiveMain.lua
/home/tc/.jivelite/userpath/jive/
# Using vi add the line *_G["jive"].JIVE_VERSION = "8.0.0"* above the
comment line before local io as shown in the patch below.
# Don't include the leading + sign(s).
sudo vi /home/tc/.jivelite/userpath/jive/JiveMain.lua
Code:
--------------------
--- /opt/jivelite/share/jive/jive/JiveMain.lua

local io = require("io")

Quit jivelite from the menu and when it restarts version 8.0.0 will be
reported from the applet installer.

searching http://ralph.irving.sdf.org/extensions/sigen.xml for type: *applet
target: jivelite version: 8.0.0*
--------------------
After you've confirmed the change, don't forget to backup the pcp
configuration *pcp bu* or you'll loose it at the next reboot.
NB: /var/log/jivelite.log will still report JiveLite 0.1.0 as the
version.
