Hi there!

Can I install this gui application on my 6.4.0 version ?

Theoretically it may be possible to run the
old one but IMHO it's not worth the trouble
as AFAIK everything it installs is ancient.

Sorry but it's 2 days that I'm reading about " pkgsrc " but I don't understand it! A gui i so simple to understand ;'(

[seanb]

What's the problem?

Have you read the binary packages page?

What issue are you having?

For exemple:

Add /usr/pkg/bin:/usr/pkg/sbin to your PATH

Where is my PATH ? Where is the file where I have to put " /usr/pkg/bin:/usr/pkg/sbin ".

Or I have to do 2 dir 1 named " pkg " and 2 named " bin ".

Io don't now what to do mmhh...

On qnx add the following line to you ~/.profile

export PATH=${PATH}:/usr/pkg/bin:/usr/pkg/sbin

Then log out, then log back in.
The following should then show the changes:

# echo ${PATH}

pkgsrc is pretty cool. I spent a lot of time on NetBSD learning it.

When we get a new xphoton it'll be more awesome then we can run rootless gui apps.

Can you help me please ?

Thanks :p

Did you do this step as mentioned in the binary packages page?

* Bootstrap archives can be found under pub/pkgsrc/packages/QNX/<arch>/<vers>/bootstrap.tar.gz

Untar bootstrap.tar.gz under the root directory (/).

Thanks sean, I try later.

Maybe it's better that I install " phinstaller " ? What do you think about it ?

A gui i so simple to understand ;'(

I second that. I can't understand why the software installer and the .qpk package format has gone. May be pkgsrc supports dependency resolution but a nice GUI that automatically downloads the required packages is easier to use than this command line solution.

So why making things more difficult than easier? Will the next version of QNX be even more uncomfortable?
