Hi donald.
Thank you for the information.
But the command
for pkgs in ...; do installpkg -root ..... $pkgs; done
do not work.
Error: bash: installpkg: command not found
The package installpkg is not available ?

[donald]

guest@porteus:~$ installpkg
bash: installpkg: command not found

guest@porteus:~$ su
Password:
root@porteus:/home/guest# installpkg
Usage: installpkg [options] <package_filename>

The commands (as root) are:
...............................

so

Code: Select all

root@porteus:/home/guest# for pkgs in /tmp/bla/*.txz; do installpkg -root /tmp/vlc $pkgs; done

Hi Donald,
for pkgs in ... do installpkg ... worked.
The problem is solved.
Thank you again for the help.
The built module vlc-bundle for Porteus 4.0 XFCE has a size of 174 MB

The qt5-base-5.9.5-x86_64-jss.xzm file is only 13.3 MB.

I have chosen the latest version vlc-3.0.3-x86_64-1_slonly.txz
There were a very (!) lot of dependencies!
And at the end:
FATAL ERROR! resolve_deps 369
Please wait 6 hours for the next database update.

Because of mariadb-10.0.35-x86_64-1_slack14.2.txz, please select mariadb-10.0.26-x86_64-1.txz

But the unofficial VLC versions in AppImage format do not work.

It works for me, only you need inside your download directory is

Code: Select all

chmod +x ./VLC*

and execute VLC

Code: Select all

./VLC*

BTW, mariadb package can be deselected in usm because it is often added but not required.

vlc-3.0.2-x86_64-1alien module, I use is only 45.7 MB. and it runs fine with jssś QT base module.
