How to make a package?
robertut 22 Nov 2009
I'd also make a package for manual installation - is there a step-by-steb guide somewhere, how to do it? I need to make a correct package for manual installation, which includes the language file, the flag icon, the uninstaller.
Any help please?

- Create the dreambox directorystructure of the package incl. the files on your PC, starting with /var
- FTP them to your box into the /tmp directory
- Change the rights of the binaires to 755 (for example the files in /var/bin or /usr/bin)
- Telnet to your dreambox to the /tmp directory
- Run from the /tmp directory the following command:
tar czvf tarbalname.tar.gz var
c = create
z = zip
v = verbose
f = to file
this wil create 'tarbalname.tar.gz' in the /tmp directory

A couple of more questions:
- what's the path to store the flag icon? What should be the flag image filename?
- how should I make the uninstaller?
- is there any place where I could add some description info to the package? Like name - By default, in Language Selector setting window, Hungarian is displayed wrong "Magya" instead of "Magyar". Where is this string located?

An uninstaller is not needed. During install, the uninstaller will be created automatically.

Should I open a ticket for it?

Please make a ticket for it. It's easy to fix I assume, but without a ticket I will forget itThanks. And how about this problem:

@robertut: please check this link. Your translations were fine, but many translations were missing. Maybe you want to add those too.

Yep, I'm ready with them, I was just testing their appearance on the screen, to make sure all strings fit in, and look reasonaby.
I didn't use your file, as I didn't notice it when I started working, but I think it's pretty complete now anyway.
The updated file can be found here: http://openpli.pli-i...s.org/ticket/99, see hu_updated_by_robertut.zip.
Can it be added to the downloads server, to be available for download from the software management menu?

Ticket posted.

There is already a flag icon for Hungary, I suppose. Anyway, the flag is stored in the image itself.
Isnt' this a waste of space in the image? To store all the flag icons inside, while only a couple of them are effectively used by everyone?
Why not store the flag icon in the downloadable langugage package?

It may take some days before I have enough time to do all the changes in OpenPLi and download server.

Is there any chance to see it on the downloads server, from the download menu of the box? Is that an automated process?
dAF2000 1 Dec 2009
No, it's half automated. It's on my todo list to update all languages and add them to the download server.I can see that the updated language has been merged, thanks (http://openpli.pli-i...et/99#comment:9)

May we all get a nice little Christmas present from you, and surprise us with the updated languages on the download server?
Do we deserve that, after making all the hard work of updating the translations for the community? I bet we all do! (I see quite a lot of updated langugaes lately for E1, it's not just me, who'd be happy, but the entire comunnity!

Sorry for the long delay. I had a busy time (and a non PLi social life )

Only for OpenPLI? /images/smiley/more/confused.gifThe languages are now on the download server for OpenPLi.
Sorry for the long delay.
Could you please add them to the previous images also (Jade2 and Jade3)?
It would be very important to have them available for older images too, since many of us still use Jade2 for daily purposes - as Jade3 and OpenPLi contain heavy bugs (DVB subtitles, rotor, movieplayer etc not working)
Could any of you copy the language files over for Jade2 (and Jade3) download?
Thanks a million in advance.
