Aarch64 RPMs (share)

Levone1 · 9 July 2021 20:03

Just some rpms I built from source for aarch64, if anyone wants … I don’t really have time for the whole Github thing, but I did make a release for the Meego Terminal (karin-console), because I had to mess with the source to do it. It’s here:

and maybe on Openrepos soon…

Containers app Full linux distros on Sailfish OS - maemo.org - Talk

Editor app https://openrepos.net/content/goalexander/editor:

Meego Termimal https://openrepos.net/content/karinzhao/meego-terminal:

QXDisplay app (goes with Containers):

Literm

https://openrepos.net/content/kabouik/literm

Also built from source, but no rpm, (have to install manually):

Irssi

Fish Irssi

Also have nnn and tmux if interested …

Please, I beg you: IRSSI with FISH-IRSSI

Levone1 · 12 July 2021 14:25

added…
For fish irssi, if you use ‘/load fish’ from irssi, it will look for file in wrong place. you have to use ‘/load /usr/local/lib64/irssi/modules/libfish.so’, or change whatever config file tells it where to look…

see above post (I think I posted wthout using ‘reply’)

apozaf · 12 July 2021 15:46

hmm, fantastic, thx. but: how can I launch it? writing irssi in terminal won’t do

Levone1 · 12 July 2021 15:58

Works for me…

How did you install? Try with devel-su pkcon install-local and see if any errors…

apozaf · 12 July 2021 16:49

dunno, won"t work, I’m too stupid, no errors while install. Now, on a second try “local-install not supported” I’ll look into it tomorrow

Levone1 · 12 July 2021 18:44

try zypper se irssi and see if it shows installed

The install command is pkcon install-local

apozaf · 13 July 2021 12:06

dunno what’s wrong. I’ll give details this evening after trying some stuff.

Levone1 · 13 July 2021 12:40

run echo $PATH and see output, then see where irssi is installed, (/usr/bin or /isr/local/bin, etc). Then you can export path, or you can try to run it from it’s location, e.g. ./usr/local/bin/irssi

Levone1 · 23 July 2021 16:36

Just came across this - Index of /pub/epel/7/aarch64
Rclone 1.47 working well. Going to test more…

Levone1 · 28 July 2021 02:30

Not sure if you ever got it working, but I was looking through some things today and I think I may not have packaged rpm properly, (I’m not much of an rpmbuild pro). I will link you the irssi bin file if you want to give it a try… Let me know.
Also, you can build pretty easily on the phone from source - let me know if interested, I can help…
I’ll take the rpm down for now.

apozaf · 28 July 2021 08:58

Hi Levone1, no, I did not get it working. I’d appreciate any help as I really rely on Irssi with fish. I never got it to build on the device, I have all needed build things installed but do not know what to do without a .spec file. Also the usual .make from Linux does not work. Your rpm does not work eighter.
I already have bribed the maker of IRC (communi) for 64bit SFOS including fish 100€, he was not interested at all

You may run rpm -ql Irssi to list all files installed by the Irssi package. You should look for executables in directories like /usr/bin, or look for a file named irssi.

Once you located one file that looks like an executable, you can type ls -l /usr/bin/irssi to check that it has the executable bit set, or not. You can also check what kind of file it is with file /usr/bin/irssi. It will tell you, if it’s a shell script, an executable… In particular, it will tell you if it has been compiled for the right architecture for instance, in case of a binary executable file.

Levone1 · 28 July 2021 14:42

Here’s the source I used for irssi - https://github.com/irssi/irssi/releases/download/1.2.3/irssi-1.2.3.tar.xz and here for fish - GitHub - falsovsky/FiSH-irssi: FiSH is an encryption add-on module for irssi. .

Building and installing is very straightforward, (not with rpmbuild - just traditional configure/make). just download the sources, unpack, cd to root directory, and start with ./configure. You will probably only find that you will have to install some dependencies. Everything needed is available device through zypper, (glib, qt5core, etc). Tje build and install takes about 2 minutes for irssi, and about 10 seconds for fish… Let me know if any issues

apozaf · 28 July 2021 16:03

dunno, never have problems on Win or Fedora, but on SFOS nothing seems to work,
f.ex. configure; no GLIB found and not found anywere with zypper install allthough gcc and everything is installed
./make does not work

stupid question: I telnet to the device and log in with defaultuser and then do everything with devel-su? i cannot log in with root (auth denied). using WinSCP is almost impossible due to all the auth stuff.

/me is just too stupid for the sfos terminal
is there any total noob and NOT outdated step by step buildondevice manual for sfos?

Since the last update there is a new terminal (busybox sh) in in SFOS and this doesn’t support some commands like the old terminal (bash) did.

There is a way to install the old shell again:
“Did you already remove busybox-symlink-bash package? (which will automatically install full blown bash again)” (Thanks @peterleinchen )

Seven.of.nine · 28 July 2021 16:39

…I don’t know, but I can tell you what I did as I destroyed my system last time by some silly experiments…

I made a full reset with /settings/system/reset device . This set the device back to SFOS 3.3 , but it worked again flawlessly. Then I had to update in 3 steps:
first to 3.4
second to 4.0
third to 4.1 .

After this procedure all damages of the system gone. It worked again as new and better than ever before.

Levone1 · 28 July 2021 17:25

zypper se glib brings up about 50 packages… The one you need is glib2-devel

I did everything on the phone with built-in terminal as defaultuser - no special tricks. Only issue was going through ‘such and such a package not found’ errors, and installing through zypper.
Start with extraction extracting source and cd to source directory and try “./configure”, and see what pops up… (or you can do “mkdir objdir” “cd objdir” “…/configure” if you want - some programs don’t like you building in the root)

Levone1 · 28 July 2021 17:59

here’s the built files for irssi. just unzip and copy. …
