Executor hang on linux #28
Comments
Hmm, some details please... Are you starting What "linux" are you running on? "hangs the UI" - so you executor gets stuck and doesn't respond to mouse clicks? What is visible on the screen at this point? |
how do I build the other backend? also, apparently resource forks have issues? |
The others are built automatically if the required libraries are installed (see the README for a list of prerequisites). I hereby repeat my questions. "apparently resource forks have issues" - what do you mean by issues? |
I am trying to install Aladdin's Stuffit, but apparently it can't find the resource fork. |
So you got past the hang? What do you see on your screen that makes you say "apparently it can't find the resource fork"? |
Sorry, I have several issues all kind of relating to one another. I assumed an ArchLinux package (from their AUR repository) I installed for Executor came from here; apparently it didn't, and the version that builds from AUR hangs when you try and open |
Apologies for the muddled responses btw! |
I wasn't even aware of that AUR package, I don't use arch myself. At first glance it looks like it builds from the current master version from my git here, but then I have no experience with arch and AUR, and therefore I might be wrong. Anyway, the dialog box you're getting probably means your copy of StuffIt doesn't have a resource fork in one of the formats that executor currently understands. As there are no real resource forks on Linux, Mac emulators have to rely on special formats or conventions to store resource forks as regular files. Executor should be able to read
It then depends on how you are downloading/unpacking StuffIt. |
I have |
I tried both AppleDouble forms and the Basilisk-style form using the following workflow and all of them resulted in a red-circled question-mark icon that wouldn't run, so a well-documented workflow for this would really help. |
Opening the file browser from a fresh compile of Executor, apparently hangs the UI
