Things like xorg-x11-apps, rfkill (which is in the repos), and the last one I do not remember.

Sounds like you need to pull down the source, and update the spec file to match PCLinuxOS's package names and then build the RPM.  After that, you can yum install it which should also install the dependencies.

[escapingsummer]

I updated the spec file etc, however the dependencies are hard to find. Plus with college work and my full-time job I can only seriously look for dependencies on the weekend. I wish PCLOS used yum then i wouldn't have to catch myself typing yum install or yum update instead it uses synaptic and apt.

So this is an RPM based distribution that uses apt?  I believe you can use apt to install a local package also and it will resolve dependencies as yum would.

It is, and I was a Fedora Packager so it took me forever to get used to apt-(insert command here) instead of yum (insert command here). Well I appreciate it, I will look more and figure out the dependencies tonight.

Cool, once you get it worked out and have a working package in PCLinuxOS, let me know and I'll add a link for this distro to http://www.jupiterapplet.org.

[escapingsummer]

I sure will.  Ill maintain it as well. Sorry for the delay in the reply I was at work. I knew I recognized your name somewhere

[escapingsummer]

Dependencies are fixed, it is pulling them correctly now. However my .spec file isn't working now....so I will get that resolved soon.

Cool, sounds like a plan is coming together.

escapingsummer and fewt:
How can I install jupiter on PCLinuxOS last iso?
Can you explain how, step by step?
Thanks

I am really intrigued by this program.

I hope escapingsummer will find the time to complete a PCLinuxOS version for the repos.

Looks as though escapingsummer has been caught up with other things - last logon April.
It would be interesting to see how Jupiter would run. Not something I know much about, although I do run PCLOS (the Phinx XFCE edition) on my EeePC 701.

In the old repos there was an eee-control rpm, but that seems to have fallen by the wayside and, although I did try rebuilding the rpm for the latest PCLOS versions, it failed to build due to needing an older version of something (can't recall exactly what now, but a fairly vital lib of some sort from memory)
