Below you will find the latest version of the deb2dsl script.
The same installation instructions apply, so maximize the size of your Firefox window and use it to copy the text into your text editor of choice (currently Beaver).
What has changed?
The default .dsl menu filename has been changed at the request of the developers, and the tar function no longer produces *.dsl extensions that have a leading "./" in the filename path.
In other words, "./usr/bin/programname" is now "usr/bin/programname".
This helps ke4nt1 reduce the amount of cleanup required for new *.dsl submissions, so please start using this version of the script for any new extension builds.
| Code Sample | #!/bin/bash
#
# deb2dsl - Converts one or more Debian packages (*.deb files) into
# a DSL extension (*.dsl file) with prompts to create a
# myDSL Menu item for the newly created package.
#
# Revision: 1
# Date: 02/19/05
# Original Author: cbagger01 from the DSL forums
#
# Rev 1 - Removed leading . from dsl file listings and
# removed .dsl from mydsl menu filename
#
# This script will grab all *.deb files located in your
# "Home" directory, IE: the /home/username directory
# It will also grab all *.deb files located in your apt
# cache, IE: /var/cache/apt/archives
#
# Before running this script, you need to actually install
# all of your Debian packages using 'dpkg -i' or
# 'apt-get install' or a package manager like Synaptic.
# Do NOT delete your leftover *.deb files or purge your
# apt-cache until after you have finished running this
# script.
#
# Disclaimer:
# This script is just a file repackaging program that
# can be used for simple Debian packages. It will not
# perform post-extraction configuration that is done
# by more sophisticated Debian packages. It also cannot
# be used to upgrade packages from older versions
# that are part of the DSL livecd base installation.
# This script will not work if it is run under the 'root' effective
# user ID which is 0
if [ "$EUID" -eq "0" ]; then
echo "Do not use 'root' access to run this script. Aborting..."
exit 1
