Request: PuTTY: A Free Telnet/SSH Client

[kwisher]

zAchAry & laprjns,

Thank you for your kind and informative replies. Your demeanors are what I have become accustomed to in a distro's forum community.

laprjns,

Thank you for taking the time to create the Putty packages for Salix. I look forward to using it when I upgrade to 14.

I've got a working package which I will post in the next day or so. It will not get into the 13.37 repo, but I will build and submit a package for 14.0.

I installed a putty package on my xfce 14 system using Sourcery. Is this the one you built? One issue I noticed is that a menu icon is not added. Just thought you'd like to know.

No, it's not mine. My package can be found here:
http://people.salixos.org/laprjns/13.37 ... 86-1rl.txz

One issue I noticed is that a menu icon is not added. Just thought you'd like to know.

My package has the icon. If you want to install it then download it using the link above, cd to the download directory and as root do the following.

Code: Select all

spkg -i putty-0.62-i486-1rl.txz

Make sure that you uninstall the package from sourcery first.

After installing your package, I get the following error when starting from the terminal:

Code: Select all

bash: /usr/bin/putty: No such file or directory

When starting from the menu I get the following error:
Failed to execute command "putty %F".
Failed to execute child process "putty" (No such file or directory)

You're installing a 32bit package in a 64bit system.

[mimosa]

I can build this for 64 bits. Will upload sometime today.

[laprjns]

Your going to need to install imagemagick as a build dependancy

Yes, that is correct. Fresh install of 14.0 64-bit beta.

Installing imagemagick did not help.

[laprjns]

Yes, that is correct. Fresh install of 14.0 64-bit beta.

The package that I linked to in an earlier post is for 13.37, not 14.0. Putty for 14.0 is not available in the Salix binary repo yet.

Installing imagemagick did not help.

No it shouldn't help. As i said in my post, imagemagick is a package build dependency, not a run time dependency.
