The following init systems are being considered for inclusion in Devuan: openrc (now available in ASCII - which I'm using now) sinit runit s6 shepherd > > #2: Where is: "Optional dependencies are listed in Appendix A." > > stated in: https://gnunet.org/en/install-on-debian9.html > > Under: "Requirements". I think that refers to the 'handbook' page? Under: 4.1 Installing dependencies Titled: The mandatory libraries and applications are.. That's where I started, so I had pkgs pre-installed & ready...that might have caused some confusion for me. > > #3: Referencing: > > https://docs.gnunet.org/handbook/gnunet.html#Installing-GNUnet > > Section: 4.1 Installing dependencies > > The mandatory libraries and applications are.. > > Many on 1st list, return: > > E: Unable to locate package glibc > > E: Unable to locate package gnutls > > E: Unable to locate package libltdl > > E: Unable to locate package libgcrypt > > E: Unable to locate package libgnurl > > E: Unable to locate package libextractor > > and more.... > > try: > apt-cache search gnutls Just ran it...showing: gnutls-bin, gnutls-doc, some 'libs', python-gnutls, rsyslog-gnutls.

I would want to, but as you can see - I'd need some assistance, till I get the hang of it. The official Debian HowTo's, were to 'dry' and advanced for me to proceed on my own.

From where I sit right now, I agree. I'll get thru installing a working gnunet first, and then gather packaging gear, and see if I can produce .deb's. > > stanz > > <devuan.org> > > <miyoisomix.i2p> - https://devuan.org/os/init-freedom/ _______________________________________________ Help-gnunet mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnunet
