Re: problem compiling protobuf3 from SlackBuild

Fails with the same error here. It looks like it is being built with python 2.7 instead of python 3. I took a look at the SLACKBUILD and found the following: # Install the python bindings ... cd python python setup.py install --root=$PKG python3 setup.py install --root=$PKG cd .. I commented out the...

Re: Salix Xfce 15.0alpha2

Here's my take on the gtkhostsetup issue. After changing the hostname with gtkhostsetup (note that I have not tried changing it any other way) many applications will not start by using the menu launchers. For example, Geany and Firefox will not start. Everything in the Accessories menu except Thunar...

The refind 0.10.3 package doinst() script doesn't detect NVM storage, so it was not able to pass the correct disk and partition infom...

You may need to rename the refind_x64.efi binary to the default name (EFI/BOOT/bootx64.efi on x86-64 systems, EFI/BOOT/bootia32.efi on x86 systems, or EFI/BOOT/bootaa64.efi on ARM64 systems) to have it run! I believe that thi...

Re: Salix Xfce 15.0alpha2

I went with ELILO, of course, and added a boot menu entry. The alpha now boots as the default, but the other entries are still there and work correctly. It would be good to have a custom rEFInd package on the iso (maybe it is, I will have a look). Try installing a Salix 14.2 refind package ( https:...
