just my 2 cents about intltool:
solved it by manually installing xml::parser using cpan
# perl -MCPAN -e 'install XML::Parser'
which most probably is not the right thing to do, am still learning t2,
but at least it compiled this way :)

OK, going back and doing a build at 10-minimal-xorg, too many
problems with 5-$packages with 50-. I've also changed the stop to
fail at 5- instead of continuing after 4- so I can pick them up
easier.
However initial problems relate to:-
6/ freeglut (118.700) which now needs PyOpengl (800.000) and of
course python (109.100) itself. I have changed PyOpengl down to
118.000 for a test and see what happens when my 10- build gets up to
that stage; and
7/ docbook?x which the build is erroring as a faulty file (yes I
downloaded it from your site), something about not a bz2 source file?
I shall d/l from source site and see what happens then.

OK, i'll have a look at the Gnome stuff as Puppy uses it and see
what needs updating unless barryk wants to do it, at least
providing a list and .desc's for new stuff. I haven't been involved
with KDE since I dropped SuSE (pre opensuse days) and went to LFS
and then on to BarryK's Puppy 2 so i'd rather leave that to a KDE
person as it's a 'little' specialized nowadays.
I also want to look at the QT 'pile' in T2 and try to sort it out
(unless someone is already doing that) as I want to add quite a bit
to it that's not there such as the QT desktops and new qt5 apps and
some of the new development tools out there. which is why I need a
working build (preferably a puppy) first. It seems that most of the
new graphics tools are using qt5 in some form. ?android influences?
There is also a qt5 photoshop ?equivalent i'm almost dying to play
with if I can build it as well as manga-ed, Storyboard, and an
Anime creation package being built by a small number of
uni-students as their final project if it comes to a useable
fruition.
But both streams will have to await a start in mid-may as I have
some Leadlighting work to complete by then. I've just been using
some free time to start things, leaving them running, and seeing
what happens when I come back approach so far, but i'm running
short of time so things may have to await then for much more than
prep work.
However, Back to working with the 50- build, I actually found a
problem (5/) with 10- (ok maybe I should have tried that one first
however 50- is so far building) except for /develop/intltool which
is set for 0----5---- but needs pearl and the xml-parser modules
built first and the perl-XML-parser isn't built until -----5----,
but that needs others built first, etc.(you know what I mean), so
for now i've changed my intltool to -----5---- for now and will see
what happens when it gets that far.
And with Problem 3/ below, it just doesn't happen if using 50-, but
does with 00-minimal (tried it a number of times on another
workstation I mirrored as a safety precaution),????, wierd!
On another, but 6/ (?MAJOR?) problem, when doing a download
-required, if the package is in the correct
download/mirror/?directory? but is a .bz2, download won't attempt
to redownload it as a .zst or convert the .bz2 to a .zst, however
the Build-Target\Package builder won't build it unless it's already
a .zst at that point, and errors the package-build with a package
not found .err error file and halts. I'm not either a good enough
coder or have enough knowledge to fix this and wonder if you could
sort it out as a matter of urgency please. Data costs down here in
Australia is rediculous to start with, especially as my only option
here where I live is satellite so I really don't want to d/l what I
don't need too as you would appreciate.
regards again to all

Hi,
I need to go thru your other notes, but Create-ISO did never
directly burn. In T2 we try to follow the Unix philosophy to
create tools that do one thing well, so that Create-ISO just
creates the system image, how the user burns it is up to them, …
50-minimal desktop will certainly yield errors, I did not build it
the last years. I only build minimal and locally emerge xorg and
friends if I need a desktop (e.g. not on VM / cloud servers).
That said of corse most desktop stuff incl. X and mesa3d did build
when I emerged it.
Btw. if someone wants to update our outdated kde & gnome package it
would be highly welcome ;-)
