Sources and Compile Scripts

Download ploplinux-src-24.2.tar.gz (5.07 GB) to get the sources and compile scripts.

ploplinux-nosrc-24.2.tar.gz (65.16 MB) has only the build scripts. Get the sources with a download script.

Individual files can be downloaded here.

The primary directories are

05-configs/       <- Minimal /etc directory and compile scripts
10-kernel/        <- Linux Kernel Source Code + Firmware Archive
15-build-tools/   <- Some simple helper scripts
20-core/          <- Core programs (first build tree)
30-console/       <- Console programs (tools, network)
40-X/             <- Xorg, Xfce, Fluxbox, GUI programs
50-server/        <- Server programs (Webserver, MySQL, PHP, Mailing)
99-cleanup/       <- Cleanup scripts
99-optional/      <- Optional packages

Compile scripts

Scripts with the name 000_all are used to run all script with the flag b.

Scripts with the name 001_continue are used to run continue the automatic build when the user interrupted 000_all. It continues with the compile script stored in the file x_current.

The compile scripts name convention is [number]_[flag]_[name]

number: For compilation sequence.

flag: The flag can be b or X. b means the script will be started by 000_all or 001_continue. X means the script will be ignored by 000_all or 001_continue.

name: The name of the package.

You can either run single compile scripts.

sh 050_b_zlib
sh 020_X_glibc
sh 660_b_openssl

Or you use the 000_all script to execute all scripts with the b flag. This script creates a log output in the directory 009-logs/. The script does not stop on errors!

sh 000_all

The sources are in the 000_src/ directory. Additional files and patches are in the 000_src-add/ directory.

A usual compile script looks like this

tar xfz 000_src/bison-3.0.2.tar.gz
cd bison-3.0.2

myconfigure

But it can be also more complex

#!/bin/sh

tar xfz 000_src/e2fsprogs-1.42.12.tar.gz
cd e2fsprogs-1.42.12

if [ "$(uname -m)" = "x86_64" ]
then

    myconfigure --with-root-prefix="" \
            --enable-elf-shlibs   \
            --disable-libblkid    \
            --disable-libuuid     \
            --disable-uuidd       \
            --disable-fsck        \
            --libdir=/lib64

else

    myconfigure --with-root-prefix="" \
            --enable-elf-shlibs   \
            --disable-libblkid    \
            --disable-libuuid     \
            --disable-uuidd       \
            --disable-fsck

fi

make install
make install-libs

cd lib/et
make install

if [ "$(uname -m)" = "x86_64" ]
then

    mv -v /lib64/pkgconfig/* /usr/lib64/pkgconfig
    rmdir /lib64/pkgconfig
    ln -sfv ../../lib64/libext2fs.so /usr/lib64
    ln -sfv ../../lib64/libe2p.so /usr/lib64

fi

Program update

Just download the new source code of the program. Store it in the 000_src/ directory and update the coresponding compile script with the new file name. Then run the updated compile script.

Script 002_download

The 002_download script downloads the source code files. The script reads the file locations from the 000_src-add/download.list.
