Thank you, laprjns. I was aware that the developer discontinued the adesklets project. I remember getting a recent patch from Arch's AUR to make it work with newer versions of python.laprjns wrote:Here's a SLKBUILD to build adesklets: ftp://laprjns.com/in/adesklets/
Just download all three files ( SLKBUILD, adesklet source and the patch files) to the same directory and runI didn't have to to fire up my 64 bit machine to build the x64 package but the slkbuild did successfully build the 32 bit package. Also didn't have time to actually install and run the package because you need to download applets and get them configured correctly.Code: Select all
fakeroot slkbuild -X
You should also know that the project has been discontinued by the developer.
I was able to build and install an adesklets package, but not an adesklets-weatherforecast package, so unfortunately I wasn't able to use your SLKBUILD as it is.
I was able modified your SLKBUILD to make gdesklets-0.36.3-x86_64-1rl.txz however.
It requires glibc-solibs which is excluded in Salix Gslapt and libgtop which doesn't build successfully with Sourcery. I got a build from Slackbuilds.org that worked.
gdesklets GoodWeather doesn't work for my location USOR0057 like adesklets-wetherforecast does, but it does work for USOR0344 (40 miles east) and USOR0353 (30 miles west).
