I have created a new pkg repository (in rtp ‘installer’) with address
"> http://qnx.wox.org/packages/6.0> ",
but when I try to connect there’s no response.

Am I missing something?

Davide,
I’m sorry, my fault.
Try fill out repository location in pkg-installer exactly as
http://qnx.wox.org/packages/6.0/bash-2.04-bld2-x86-gnu.qpr
…qpr is Qnx Package Repository and all repository’s stuff is inside that archive.
Best regards,

btw, has photon ICQ self activated chat window? I guess there is another place with the very funny
reply :wink:

Eduard.

Hi I’back again…

Try fill out repository location in pkg-installer exactly as
http://qnx.wox.org/packages/6.0/bash-2.04-bld2-x86-gnu.qpr

…this way I can access the repository, but when I try to install bash
It says another package is missing:

bash-2.04-bld2-gnu

It shuold be something like a license (license for GNU software ???
Aaaarrggh! )

Thanks for help

DOn’t use that old 6.0 package unless you are actually using 6.0! If you
are using 6.1 please point your Package Installer at my 6.1 repository,
http://qnx.wox.org/repository/6.1/. You can get bash2.05a from that place.
The license it is trying to find is simply the text of the GNU license
associated with that package - not a commerical license.

Thanx Chris! Now it works!

…another related question… :^)

I have downloaded and istalled some packages (patch A, bash, tcpdump,
vim, etc…) on a rtp 6.1 box.
From package installer I have checked “save original pkgs in
/pkgs/archive”, then I’ve copied all the
/pkgs/archive dir into /pkgs/wwwpkgs dir on another machine.
When I launch package inteller on that machine, I create a new
repository ‘file:///pkgs/wwwpkgs’ and it works fine
(all the copied packages are shown), but the install go wrong: “missing
file bash-2.05a-public” (trying to install bash).

…but files bash-2.05a-public.qpk and .qpm ARE in /pkgs/wwwpkgs !!!

Which is the right way to install already downloaded packages??
Is there some docs about it? (Package installer in rtp help doesn’t help
me!)

Thanks for help… and sorry for my awful english!

My guess (one of the package experts could speak up) is that you are missing
the license files that can be found in my repository. They are in a subdir
called .repdir.

There was a bug where pkg-installer didn’t copy the license file when that
option was turned on. This has been fixed, and should appear in the next
release.

right ?

Um, yes.

How many times do you want to install it? If you don’t want it on your
system for a certain period of time after it’s installed, just deactivate
it. Then reactivate it when you need it again. That’s the bonus of
Activate/Deactivate! You won’t be asked for the license when you activate a
package.

…or just download .qpr and all contents of .repdir… creat the same
stuff into your directory and add local repository in pkg-installer.
