 Rpi-imager does work just fine. I made a slackbuild for it recently before I realized it was already on sbo. But building it is nothing special as you may have noticed 1.8.5 works on 15 and current as well. There is a patch to disable the auto update check which would normally run on debian(raspbian, raspberriepiOS) as well which could be obtained for it if so desired.

Github has the sources for both 1.7.5 and the new 1.8.5. The problem here isn't that the source is missing, the problem is that the SBo maintainer is missing. The good news is, if you download the 1.8.5 source from github: https://github.com/raspberrypi/rpi-imager/archive/v1.8.5/rpi-imager-1.8.5.tar.gz ...and run rpi-imager.SlackBuild with VERSION=1.8.5 set in the environment, it runs OK, and creates a rpi-imager-1.8.5-x86_64-1_SBo.tgz package that at least looks plausible. I don't own a Raspberry Pi and don't have any microSD cards left, so I can't test to see if it actually works, but presumably Jim can... _______________________________________________ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users at slackbuilds.org https://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - https://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - https://slackbuilds.org/faq/
