After trying it out on a 64 bit system I got a linker error. I started a 32 bit machine in a virtual machine. This time it compiles but I got a segfault when running my binary. Well, I know I didn't posted an error message and I should tell you a little bit more about what I did so that someone could actually help me. But I wanted to ask first is there actually anyone who can help me? I mean is there anyone who knows how relaytool works, still reading the mailing list and who could patch relaytool? Also has anyone ever successfully used relaytool recently? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: autopackage-dev-unsubscribe-OfajU3CKLf1/SzgSGea1oA&lt; at &gt;public.gmane.org For additional commands, e-mail: autopackage-dev-help-OfajU3CKLf1/SzgSGea1oA&lt; at &gt;public.gmane.org </pre> Jan Niklas Hasse 2009-10-18T16:38:14 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.autopackage.devel/7151 <pre>Hi I would like to inform you that we (dotSrc.org) are shutting down the hosting part of our services.

For instance 'package list' returns no output when using functions inside python to get the output of the program. Can anyone help me figure out why this is? The code snippet is as follows: PROCESS = subprocess.Popen( [ 'package', 'list' ], stdout=subprocess.PIPE ).communicate( ) print PROCESS Many Thanks Neil Munro </pre> Neil Munro 2009-09-07T17:46:26 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.autopackage.devel/7146 <pre>Hey I am working on an application that pulls various packages from the internet and installs them under Linux, since autopackage is dead easy to get applications installed with it was the first package format to be supported, now however I am looking into how to uninstall packages and autopackage is still rather simple, if your an intelligent human being. My program kinda sucks that way since it's neither ;). I have a package file, I save the name of this package file to a text file, however I wish to extract the short name from the autopackage archive prior to installation so my program can save the short name in the text file should the need to uninstall arise. How might I achieve this? Many thanks, Neil Munro </pre> Neil Munro 2009-09-04T00:32:19 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.autopackage.devel/7143 <pre>Hi there! I know that AP does not support upgrades per se (i.e. automatic updates), however I have a question about installing packages the update the system: - How do I package a new version of my app, if I want the old, installed version is already installed in the system with AP? Should I care? - What if the package I'm updating is a library? Will it break dependencies within AP? Cheers, Pablo. BTW, Thanks to the list for answering my (apparently random) autopackage questions. :) </pre> Pablo Garralda 2009-08-25T13:07:49 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.autopackage.devel/7131 <pre>Hi everyone, Some months ago I tried to create a new design for the autopackage website. Although I like the current one very much, I think it's very hard to find the right site. The categories on the left side don't make much sense to me and some pages are not accessible via the menu. Furthermore I thought that a new design would give the autopackage project a new broom (I translated this one from German, hope you understand what I want to say). Another reason to create a new design was that the current one uses HTML 4 Transitional which is outdated and has several disadvantages (I'm not a good enough web developer to tell you exactly which, but it's harder to maintain for me). I'm not that happy with my new mockup and wanted to change many flaws, but never found time in the last past months. So I thought better show it, before it gets lost on my computer. To cut a long story short, there you go: http://watteimdocht.de/autopackage/test Criticism is appreciated :) - Jan ----------------------------------</pre> Jan Niklas Hasse 2009-08-19T15:44:02 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.autopackage.devel/7126 <pre>I tried to install it and this is the output #&gt; package install autopackage-gtk-1.4.2.package ----------------------------------------------------------------- # Preparing package: Autopackage Software Installer (GTK+) # Checking for GTK+ user interface toolkit ... passed # Checking for Glade user interface loader library ... passed tar: This does not look like a tar archive tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors # Installing package: Autopackage Software Installer (GTK+) (package 1 of 1) # Preparing executables... # Installing GNOME 2 file type information... /usr/share/autopackage/apkg-script-utils: line 834: cd: share/mime-info: No such file or directory # Installing GNOME 2 application registry entries... /usr/share/autopackage/apkg-script-utils: line 834: cd: share/application-registry: No such file or directory # Installing file type information (MIME)... /usr/share/autopackage/apkg-script-utils: line 834: cd: share/mime/packages: No such file or directory # Installing KDE 3.x file</pre> Pablo Garralda 2009-08-18T17:54:41 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.autopackage.devel/7123 <pre>Hi guys, Does anyone know if there is an autopackage of the Qt library available? Nokia/Trolltech doesn't seem to make them, and a quick google doesn't reveal anything. Until now I've been statically linking my own build of Qt. What I'd like to do now is create a dynamic build of Qt as its own .package file which I can then put within my app's .package. The primary goal here is to make it possible to use the distribution's Qt if it already exists, otherwise my Qt build would be installed. Is this possible? I seem to remember reading some autopackage information that said it was. Do I also need to write some test program that probes for a compatible installed Qt?
