Error by running index.py #15

All done! Please look over the generated "index.json" file and consider populating the "silica_data" folder with a description, screenshots, and an icon. Traceback (most recent call last): File "index.py", line 226, in <module> main() File "index.py", line 51, in main DebianPackager.CheckForSilicaData() File "/home/nepeta/Schreibtisch/Nepeta/util/DebianPackager.py", line 394, in CheckForSilicaData os.remove(self.root + "Packages/" + folder + "/silica_data/scripts/Control") FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/nepeta/Schreibtisch/Nepeta/util/../Packages/Cuboid/silica_data/scripts/Control'

What is in Silica's Packages folder?

10Meisterbaelle commented 5 years ago

A lot of packages.

10Meisterbaelle commented 5 years ago

Cuboid.zip

The solution is to just rename the control file to Control, but I got a different error.

Shugabuga commented 5 years ago

The error Python gives is misleading. You don't need a Control file for Silica. Silica uses its own JSON file format to deal with what the Control files does.

You need to put an index.json file in the silica_data folder. See the README for details. This replaces the Control file. This will include the package name, version, and more. Trying to provide your own Control file in the scripts folder will break Silica.

If you just have the DEBs, you can just drop them into the Packages file and Silica will attempt to automatically convert them into a Silica-readable format and generate the needed .json file from user input and the information inside the DEB.
