Hello. I recently installed Frugalware 1.3 on a G4 Mac, and I notice some packages I need are not included. I installed them by cloning the stable repo and adding 'ppc' to the FrugalBuilds. I post my results here with the question: What I can do to help see these pushed to the official release?
In every case, fblint fails the check for unchanged pkgrel. Unsure what to do with that. 1. network-extra/pptp Built fine. I cannot test this much at the moment, but it seems alright. 2. network-extra/openvpn I had to set NOUP2DATE=1 because, I gather, there is a newer version out, but it built and works fine. This one made me wonder if I should work from current rather than stable. 3. network/netkit-telnet The Debian patch 32 is no longer available for download. Bumped that to 36 and updated the sha1sum. Then it built and ran fine. 4. network/mutt Built and installed fine, and works ok. I cannot really use it because I need the features of the development version. Fortunately I later noticed mutt-devel. 5. network-extra/mutt-devel This one was not up to date, so I set NOUP2DATE=1 again. Then it built and ran fine, once I uninstalled mutt. 6. lib-extra/libofx Built and installed without issue. 7. kde-extra/skrooge Setting NOUP2DATE=1 did not help because the old version is no longer available for download. I'd rather switch to current and get the latest anyway. Do I need to reinstall the whole system? Thanks.
