dynebolic

Here goes my notes and progress on dynebolic.

Notes Xorg upgrade

The xorg packages I made require libpciaccess.so from pciutils source. The xorg package contain some build dependecies like python2.6 that need to be moved somewhere else.

Packages

Links wich is a text browser if it cannot find the Xlibs for wich have being compiled to offer X features it will not start and segfault even when the -no-g option is given, there is no work around. Proposal: compile 2 versions one with X support and one without it.Install lynx too.

Fix tzdata and zoneinfo in the sys.

upgrade xfce4.

Moving all compiling stuff to devel.dyne and keep the sys.dyne small and slim only with "operational programs". It should be possible to use mods without the devel package.

upgrade the audio mod.

install firefox 4 and midori/webkit.

Clean up old no more maintained games from the game module.

Wish list

• automatic linking of .pc file in /usr/lib/pkgconfig
• skeleton creation for software module from dynesdk
• layer on top of sys.dyne for avoiding mistakes during modules development
• nfs client in ramdisk
• nfs server in sys
• ramdisk ramfs
• runit init (scripts can still be zsh)
