First use separate install for packaging (that is the best way). You can do it using VirtualBox.
Use one of the following isos:

Use PCLinuxOS-MiniMe-2011 and install task-packaging-kde4.

or --->>

Use PCLinuxOS-LXDE-Mini-2011 and install pkgutils-thunar.
or
Use PCLinuxOS-XFCE-2011 and install pkgutils-thunar.
or
Use the latest PCLinuxOS-ZenMini ISO.

Next be sure to read this thread and texts within it:

And in the end you should follow common pclos standards for the package:

Ok Slax I go to install the needed pkgutils and missing dependencies, same issue when I was trying with the KDE-Mini, unable to create build environment. What can I do to correct this Slax.

Error:

[slax]

well, looks like noone fixed these packages yet
after the RPM update, packaging scripts were unusable, and i thought someone fixed it by now....

Ok, i'll look into it, and post back. We need to be patient for a while

UPDATE:
Packaging scripts are broken :/
http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.ph ... 708.0.html

We could do all the commands by hand, but it's painfull... we should wait a bit, and i'll see if i can do something about it.

I think you can add the unstable section to the end of your selected repo line and reload synaptic. That should bring in your dependencies.

[slax]

You're correct, but when you install it, the rpm commands are different...

with previous rpm version, cmd for building specfile was -ba, and now it doesn't work (should be -buildall or something...)

[ongoto]

Texstar announced some changes a while back. Does this not work?

no. new command is "rpmbuild" not just "rpm"

Ok Slax I will stand by until you give the go ahead.

Hi Slax, just checking in to see how the progress is going on the packages needed for the build environment.

[slax]

I'm finishing new alpha iso in a couple of days, and i'll also post fix to addpkg
stay tuned

[mmesantos1]

Ok Slax and thanks for the response.

[slax]

Sorry for the long time-out, but i'm really busy with my day job.
Ok we should continue

To install pkgutils-thunar or pkgutils-kde, add "unstable" section in repos.
you do this by going to (in synaptic):
settings -> repositories -> then click on the chosen repo -> under "section(s)" add "unstable"

After that we start to package! xD

Hi Slax,
Was just wondering what you would think of a Light Theme? Here is an example of what I mean.
