There may well be things in the list that we don't really need, but that debootstrap currently references. Packages I needed, not yet available from Debian mirrors. Some of these were needed to build, rather than actually packaged within the boot-floppies. Just about all are available from pehc debs, base, ~pjlahaie, or ~bame, except for apt-uitls, I think. I have horrible problems with *slang*, *newt* in lib and usr/lib, and how things such as dbootstrap and whiptail try to reference libslang.so. At the moment I'm running with newer packages on the build system, and older ones in the boot-floppies. Hopefully a synchronised rebuild of the relevant packages will sort things out there. Typical problem is that something references /usr/lib/libslang.so, which doesn't exist (depending on what vintage of packages you use). Anyway, the packages I'd like to find in a debian mirror: telnetd (just for my use, not part of b-f build) gcc-3.0 libgcc300 cpp-3.0 libc6-dev debootstrap but it needs my patch kernel-package pb has one on pehc kernel-image-2.4.0 pb has one, but doesn't contain modules I build one below apt apt-utils console-tools console-tools-libs exim ldso libc6 libldap2 libnewt0 libstdc++2.10 libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 libstdc++3.0 man-db modutils ncurses-bin netkit-inetd netkit-ping palo slang1 pb's fix for .so link slang1-dev slang1-pic whiptail whiptail_0.50.8-2_hppa.deb, pehc/base works with the new slang above. Arghhh! telnet glibc-pic libnewt libnewt-dev recode sp (replaced by sgml-data??) libsp1 librecode0 pointerize libgd libgd-dev python-xml busybox need new source from above g++-3.0 libstdc++3.0-dev =========================================================================== Build process, building on a500.
