You must read the Cookbook first. Its a great collection of documents. This guides supplements the cookbook with some tips that you are likely to face while compiling a package for SliTaz

Tips

  • Add “slitaz-dev-pkgs” package. Its a meta package to add some of the useful *-dev packages
  • Compilation Errors like
    • * checking for $PKG… configure: error: Couldn't find $PKG >= 1.0.0,
    • * configure: error: Couldn't find $FILENAME

use 

  tazpkg search-pkgname $FILENAME 
   
   
   Add the package with the particular file to BUILD_DEPENDS
   
   * Read receipts of other packages. The problems you face may already have a solution in one of the receipts. Some examples receipts include: 
     ** cups: to strip files other than .so in usr/lib, and to compress some driver files
     ** ndiswrapper-driver: to cook linux modules
     **
