Here is another version of fextiu written for a later
Puppy Linux, Fatdog64. It has become necessary for me
to look at 64-bit because of reasons beyond my control.
What I can do is adapt my scripts.
Don't get me wrong, I still use my old computers
(with Puppy of course). One is over a decade old and
the other is newer (but not like recent 'new')
-both run Lucid 5.2.8 and still run well.
The 64-bit Frontier Gets Its Turn...
Fextiu_2 is tested as well as shortened while still
packing the punch of the originals. Once again, no
scripts are involved, and no X is needed. It is
a little shorter than a 100 lines of code, but has been
effective for me. This also demonstrates the
adaptability of the code.
A great part of freedom of code is the ability to do
whatever you want to it. If the code doesn't work as
original, just modify it so that it does. Just be
mindful of its limits and how they can be expanded.
Enough chit chat, here it is:
Code:
#! /bin/bash
# FEXTIU_2 - for fatdog64 620 beta 3 (maybe beyond, maybe before)
# a rewrite of fextiu script - does not execute scripts
# even works partially for fd64-32bit-libs-6.sfs both ways
# only additional help (sometimes optional) is rm -r lib32 to clean empty paths
#
# supports: deb, tar, sfs, zip, pet
# warnings: ubuntu packages have become risky, using debian packages is better
# do not use wildcards like *
# some deb packages may produce output, check /FEXTIU if they installed successfully
# global variables
mdir=" " #special variable for pet
# functions
uninstaller() {
sed -i 's/^/\//' /*.fextiutxt #make small correction

return;
