I probably need to give some background on this.... There are puppy versions with pskmail and fldigi for puppy 3. Barry Kauler decided for puppy 3 that the perl installation would be crippled, so that it was not possible to install pskmail from source. I had to precompile pskmail on a separate machine with debian before putting it on the disk. To give you a broad idea, I needed about a week to provide and test a new pskmail version on puppy. Because of the time input necessary and the separate infrastructure I needed especially for puppy 3, I decided I could not support it without seriously neglecting other tasks. I then found someone who promised to take over the pskmail support for puppy, and it was suggested to build a puppy4 CD with enough resources to support running pskmail from perl source, as we do on all other platforms. This would make maintenance and testing a lot easier, and once it was there it could be updated by the user... Unfortunately the project was half finished because of other priorities, and I was stuck with a puppy4 CD image without a usable pskmail. So I put in some time and generated the puppy4 CD as it is on the download site now. It works well, but its size is 200 MB, which means it does not run well on smaller windows machines unless you can make a large linux swap disk... That is the situation at the moment. I am now -again- looking for somebody to take over puppy support for pskmail. We have a puppy4 CD with all the right libraries, but we need someone to integrate the newest pskmail client and fldigi, and provide a smaller (100 MB) puppy image. For any other puppy distro (EMC etc.) you need either compiled versions of the pskmail client (which I do not provide anymore, so DIY, or you have to create a perl environment that will run the bare scripts (preferable).
