Re: [Dng] The basic of building package

Hi, Anto. These are some steps I follow when packaging from uncompressed and modified package files: (packages are made for both i386 and amd64, thus the subdirectory names) 1.- Calculate md5sums for the modified files: sudo su cd ./i386_SSL md5sum `find . -type f | g

I think Patrick means unless systemd becomes 100% unavoidable as a dependency. However as replacement software is made available this will lessen. Currently we still use udev-classic and ConsoleKit with little else, but as KDE/Plasma5 is being looked at, things are being considered. Runit is ni

Runit rocks! IMHO it's one of the very best init systems, and I doubt it would be difficult for a Devuan end user to retrofit with runit. I don't know Patrick's or Devuan's opinion of the http://unlicense.org/ style Public Domain, but if it's acceptable, Epoch, while not quite as full featured as

Currently work is being made to offer alternatives to sysvinit in Slackware such as OpenRC and Runit, as they are the most complete init replacement systems. Work has been slow in progress, but there are solid efforts to bring offerings around over at LinuxQuestions. We have been met with resist

 Hi James, Thanks for the info. Keeping Slack stable is the reason why some have picked this excellent distro instead of a bsd during the mass migration away from the systemd/Debian debacle. Sure hope the same fiasco that occurred with systemd/Debian does not ha

Mostly I've just worked on patching or backporting existing things in the past for local repos. I've encountered a handful of packages that don't "clean" cleanly which is always annoying. I usually start over at that point (eg: rm -rf and apt-get source or dpkg-source -x again so I'm in a clean s
