Folks, ?which list do you want problems sent too for:-

a) Building with T2 using a svn of the trunk; and

b) Packages using the d/l address found from the individual packages found in 
http://t2-project.org/packages/ (due because of a)).

Yes, this list ;-)

thanks

The SVN was downloaded on the 27th July, I also have a local mirror of 
http://dl.t2-project.org/mirror/9.0/ from the same date which I have linked 
into download/mirror/ as an absolute link.

The two Errors I am getting when using:

./scripts/Download -required

are both apparently curl related and examples of these are:

Error 1:
Downloading perl:download/mirror/p/perl-5.20.0.tar.gz ...
unrecognized!
INFO: download from mirror failed, trying original URL.

Finished downloading 0 bytes in 0.000 seconds (0.000 bytes/sec).
curl: (7) couldn't connect to host
ERROR: CURL Returned Error 7. Please read the curl manpage.

Error 2:
Downloading openssl:download/mirror/o/openssl-1.0.1h.tar.gz ...
unrecognized!
INFO: download from mirror failed, trying original URL.

Finished downloading 0 bytes in 2.354 seconds (0.000 bytes/sec).
curl: (56) Recv failure: Connection reset by peer
ERROR: CURL Returned Error 56. Please read the curl manpage.

I am using Puppy Linux Racy5.5 (T2 Version 8) and I access the internet via 
satellite (ping of 650ms+). Curl version 7.21.7 is what is installed on my 
puppy.

Reading the manpage doesn't help me, I'm a puppy builder, not a coder, my 
scripting knowledge is basic.

I can manually download (some) files from their origonal url with wget so I 
don't think the problem is with me.

I do not see problems like this - but I never used a satellite connection, … 
maybe too short timeout for this use case?

The Download script has a -longtimeout and -notimeout option - do any of these 
work better for you?

For those that know him Barry Kauler who started Puppy Linux from a T2 base 
many years ago has finally retired, and i'm just trying to continue his work 
and update to T2 Version 9, having built from scratch with a couple of other 
dist's over the years. The new Puppy will be called Puppy T290 as i'm not 
matching his work just updating.


First time I hear Barry retired, recently noticed his email address did no 
longer work. Hope he is good and enjoying his time!

Good luck with the update process. Maybe it can be published in a way for 
others to use and rebuild the distro using T2 easily, too.

Regards,


Ah, great, the -notimeout has got rid of the curl Error56 problems, Satellite ping is typically between 600ms and 1220ms. However the curl error 7 problem remain, (it relates to proxy, which i don't have setup or use,) so I don't know where to go there, any ideas as it didn't appear constantly, just for some packages?

I was also wondering, ?would it also be possible to add a -nomirror option to the download script so it always goes straight to the source? I think it would be a worthwhile addition to the set.

thanks
