Dear friends,
on https://mirror1.slitaz.org/sources/packages-undigest/k/ I see that someone has started in 2012-Mar-07 to prepare the source code for kompozer. I have to state that I am a regular user of Slitaz but have not a little bit of experience with compiling such a thing so that it runs on a recent kernel and Slitaz installation. In addition I have no idea how long it takes to prepare that.
Anybody here to help out with that?

You can work on komposer receipt:
https://hg.slitaz.org/wok-undigest/file/tip/kompozer
$ cd /home/slitaz/ ; hg checkout wok-undigest ; ls kompozer

Thanks a lot, @Bellard. A big step forward for me - I will try to solve this together with some Linux-friends here. And report here about it, of course.

@Bellard
I tried it. But I failed. I found the centent that you mentioned with ease. But:
- there is no /home/slitaz
- I installed hg. But there is no command "checkout" wit hg. "hg --help" dos not find it.
I never worked with wok. So it stops here. ;-(

In the past I had compiled it, now I tried again, but I get stuck at this error:
./../xul/base/src/nsStackFrame.h:55:19: error: friend declaration of ‘nsresult NS_NewStackFrame(nsIPresShell*, nsIFrame**, nsIBoxLayout*)’ specifies default arguments and isn’t a definition [-fpermissive]
55 | friend nsresult NS_NewStackFrame(nsIPresShell* aPresShell, nsIFrame** aNewFrame, nsIBoxLayout* aLayout = nsnull);
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
for sources just wget
wget https://mirror1.slitaz.org/sources/packages-undigest/k/kompozer-0.8b3-src.tar.bz2
tar -xvf kompozer-0.8b3-src.tar.bz2
cd mozilla

Thanks a big lot, dear @Gibor! Yes, I remember well as I had used your result for years. Forgive me but I am not able to digest this error message in any productive way. All I can hope is that somebody „adventurous“ enough may find it interesting and will give it a try. Above my horizon! :-(
This was meant serious:

Hi, I'm just a frequent visitor of this site, I don't know anything especially about the administrative part of slitaz. I only know that it is currently hosted by Shann on his corporate server (I think) and if you want clarification it is better that you contact him or directly to Pankso.
For Kompozer, I can't guarantee anything, I'll see if I can still come up with something. I've always liked the challenges of updating the sources of old packages. If I get something useful I'll post it here.
Greetings from Italy to all.

Ciao, Sono solo un assiduo frequentatore di questo sito, non conosco niente sopratutto della parte amministrativa di slitaz. So solo che attualmente è ospitato da Shann sul suo server aziendale (credo) e se vuoi chiarimenti è meglio che ti rivolgiti a lui oppure direttamente a Pankso.
Per Kompozer non ti garantisco niente, vedrò se riesco a tirare fuori ancora qualcosa. Mi sono sempre piaciute le sfide di aggiornare i sorgenti di vecchi pacchetti. Se arrivo a qualcosa di utile te lo posterò qui.
Saluti dall'Italia a tutti.

Hi there,
I tried to compile kompozer-0.8b3 in my wok.
The gnome-vfs-dev pakage needs to be added in the build depends in the receipt.
But it still remains a problem:
[c]../../../dist/include/system_wrappers/pango/pangox.h:3:31: fatal error: pango/pangox.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.[/c]
and yet the file does exist...
I don't find from what this error comes from. Any hints?

Ceel, first at all get from source pangox-compact
https://github.com/behdad/pangox-compat
and make other multiple patch to build
xpcom/glue/nsBaseHashtable.h
xpcom/glue/nsClassHashtable.h
xpcom/glue/nsInterfaceHashtable.h
modules/libpr0n/decoders/png/nsPNGDecoder.cpp
modules/libpr0n/encoders/png/nsPNGEncoder.cpp
xpcom/glue/nsRefPtrHashtable.h
search on web for detail

Gentlemen,
thanks a big lot for your efforts. I can only cross my fingers for a happy end! Sorry, this is above my IT-horizon.
But I should tell the reasons why I am so eager to use this age-old software: one can mark a paragraph on a website, copy it with ctrl-c and paste it directly into another html-site opened with Kompozer including all the embedded links! If one has to work a lot with excerpts from websites like I do it this is a valuable feature that saves a lot of time. - This has not changed since my first start with Slitaz, 2.0 as I remember.
Ceterum: This was meant serious!

Two pieces of news, one good and one bad.
The good I got to the end of the compilation on my 64bit build and it starts up....
[attachment=50521,3186]
The bad as soon as I move the mouse it crashes
run-mozilla.sh: line 131: 1738 Segmentation fault "$prog" ${1+"$@"}
well i tried ;-)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Due notizie: una buona e una cattiva.
La buona sono arrivato alla fine della compilazione sulla mia build a 64bit e si avvia...
La cattiva appena muovo il mouse va in crash
run-mozilla.sh: riga 131: 1738 Errore di segmentazione "$prog" ${1+"$@"}
vabbè ci ho provato ;-)

@gibor:
First: great! Chapeau! And thanks for your patience!
And now the question to the real experienced readers: what can this mean?
In Germany we tend to say: this is far beyond where my command of Latin ends! :-(

Here I have and use several versions of Slitaz 5.0. Only on one of them Kompozer runs:
SliTaz GNU/Linux - 5.0-RC4 20190308
The system, tazpanel - packages, tells me that 269 package are there which might be updated. I know from several such trials that in case I update it Kompozer will no longer run. So within this amount of packages there must be at least one „culprit“ that poisons the application.
I cannot see a way how to find that culprit. It has nothing to do with the kernel. If I boot this installation using the vmlinuz-3.16.55-slitaz64 kernel Kompozer still runs.
Regards and thanks for your engagement,
Michael

They are all 32bit versions... anyway starting from a basic installation of slitaz rolling, or from the live version, these are the commands for compiling kompozer
tazpkg -gi slitaz-toolchain
tazpkg -gi perl
tazpkg -gi zip
tazpkg -gi pkg-config
tazpkg -gi gtk+-dev gtk-girepository
tazpkg -gi libXaw3dXft-dev pango-dev xorg-libXft-dev
tazpkg -gi libIDL
ln -s /usr/include/pango-1.0/pango /usr/include/pango
from the sources of pangox-compact take pangox.h
cp -a pangox.h /usr/include/pango/
tar -xvf kompozer-0.8b3-src.tar.bz2
cd mozilla
> .mozconfig
echo ac_add_options --enable-application=composer > .mozconfig
cp -a security/coreconf/Linux2.6.mk security/coreconf/Linux3.16.mk
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-glibtest --disable-libIDLtest --disable-updater --disable-tests --enable-system-cairo --enable-installer
make
.....
su
make install
exit
kompozer
Now you can try it too.
And if no one adds the package to the repositories, I'll try to share my build for you.
Offline
Thanks again a big lot, dear Gibor! I will try it, together with a Linux friend here, as I never did any compiling until now. Would it be possible to get the one you managed to do? - I have no idea how to add this to the repository. - As a kind of revenge I offer to you to apply my qualifications (I am a biologist) but in a peer-to-peer way only. If interested just write an e-mail to timokino@posteo.de.

Non fraintendermi, scrivo in italiano poi traduco sperando di farti capire meglio il mio pensiero.
Ho messo le istruzioni per compilare kompozer, solo per la sua semplicità nel farle. Basta un terminale con copia incolla i comandi e una mezzora di tempo per ottenere il tutto.
Un capitolo a parte per i repository slitaz.
Non conosco gli strumenti ufficiali come i cook taz... e compagnia, e nemmeno mi interessano. Tant'è che basandomi su semplici comandi di compilazione ricavo ugualmente tutto quello che voglio.
So che su slitaz per principio sezionano in sottopacchetti più o meno tutto. Questo per limarne fino all'osso la dimensione. Questa cosa può trovare logica in una live, ma in installazioni ordinarie la trovo un accanimento superfluo.
Qui il link di kompozer.tazpkg già pronto. Non so se sarà operativo al 100% per i tuoi scopi, ma dalle poche prove che ho fatto, si apre e non rilevo crash nell'immediato.

Buona giornata michaelbischof ;-)
Don't get me wrong, I write in Italian then translate hoping to make you understand my thoughts better.
I put the instructions to compile kompozer, just for the simplicity of doing it. Just a terminal with copy paste commands and half an hour of time to get it all.
A separate chapter for the slitaz repositories.
I don't know the official tools like cook taz.... and company, nor do I care about them. So much so that relying on simple build commands I get everything I want anyway.
I know that on slitaz on principle they dissect in subpackages more or less everything. This is to limit the size to the bone. This can be logical in a live installation, but in ordinary installations I find it a superfluous overkill.
Here is the link of kompozer.tazpkg ready. I don't know if it will be 100% operational for your purposes, but from the few tests I've done, it opens and I don't detect any immediate crash.

Good day michaelbischof ;-)

Great, Gibor! It works like a charm. And it even survived an update to the latest packages. In such a case I make a comlete installation backup before I do it. But it works!
The compiling I will try with a Linux friend but later and I will report here, fore sure!

There is a recipe in the cooking wok, but compiling fails.
Maybe it must be compiled on a 32-bit SliTaz?
Offline
compiled in the fresh installed rolling (web) with the above commands and with the pangox-compact source trick
ps: tazinst in the iso wants updated

Hello, back to my wok.
@gibor,
Thank you for your answer. pangox-compat was missing in the build depends of the undigest receipt...
But as for HGT, compiling failed (I use a 32bit system). I tried to compile following exactly your way (that is not really different of the SliTaz receipt) and got the same error. I think a package is still missing in BUILD_DEPENDS.
For the moment, I give up. I'll come back to it later.

I don't know the tools you use for cooking, however I think you can still patch the sources. For pangox-compat the compilation seems to be successful only by editing pangox.c
