Notes and hints for Deli Linux 0.7.2

How can I update from 0.7.1?

See upgrade

Where is dillo, siag office, firefox etc.?

Since I want to keep the ISO small some packages have been excluded from the standard ISO. But you can get them from the net with deliget. Run deliget update to get a list of available packages. Then deliget install package-name to install. A network connection for this is required.

How can I install addidtional software which is not available in Deli?

Learn about the ports system here. Then go to http://crux.nu/portdb/?a=search, search for a port for the desired software, execute the mentioned rsync or httpup command and then build the package.

Where are the sources?

The sources are available through DeLi's ports system (see above). The DeLi Linux Tools (delisetup and others) are shell scripts, so they are already open source, with one exception. The installation uses the program delimenu which is a modified replimenu. You can get the modified sources here

Konq-E sucks. Are there other browsers available?

Konq-E (aka Konqueror/Embedded) supports CSS and javascript. Because this is still kind of experimental there may be some cases where Konq-E hangs or doesn't display a site right.

deliget install glib2
deliget install libidl
deliget install firefox-1.5.0.11
