|
2015-08-22 14:55:15 +05:30
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
xx your language code; e.g. for Dutch you need
|
|
|
|
|
language-pack-gnome-nl. The translation of the
|
2021-05-30 22:16:21 +05:30
|
|
|
Gramps strings is included with the Gramps source.
|
2015-08-22 14:55:15 +05:30
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The following packages are **STRONGLY RECOMMENDED** to be installed:
|
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
* **osmgpsmap**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Used to show maps in the geography view.
|
|
|
|
|
It may be osmgpsmap, osm-gps-map, or python-osmgpsmap,
|
2017-06-08 18:52:58 +05:30
|
|
|
but the Python bindings for this must also be present, so gir1.2-osmgpsmap-1.0.
|
2015-08-22 14:55:15 +05:30
|
|
|
Without this the GeoView will not be active, see
|
2021-05-30 22:16:21 +05:30
|
|
|
https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gramps_5.1_Wiki_Manual_-_Categories#Geography_Category
|
2015-08-22 14:55:15 +05:30
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* **Graphviz**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Enable creation of graphs using Graphviz engine.
|
|
|
|
|
Without this, three reports cannot be run.
|
2017-06-08 18:52:58 +05:30
|
|
|
Obtain it from: http://www.graphviz.org or try graphviz and python3-pygraphviz from your packages.
|
2015-08-22 14:55:15 +05:30
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* **PyICU**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Improves localised sorting in Gramps. In particular, this
|
|
|
|
|
applies to sorting in the various views and in the
|
|
|
|
|
Narrative Web output. It is particularly helpful for
|
|
|
|
|
non-Latin characters, for non-English locales and on MS
|
|
|
|
|
Windows and Mac OS X platforms. If it is not available,
|
|
|
|
|
sorting is done through built-in libraries. PyICU is
|
|
|
|
|
fairly widely available through the package managers of
|
|
|
|
|
distributions. See http://pyicu.osafoundation.org/
|
2021-05-30 22:16:21 +05:30
|
|
|
(These are Python bindings for the ICU package
|
|
|
|
|
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/PyICU/).

|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-02-18 07:45:43 +05:30

|
|
Python Image Library (PILLOW) is needed to crop
|
2015-08-22 14:55:15 +05:30
|
|
|
images and also to convert non-JPG images to
|
|
|
|
|
JPG so as to include them in LaTeX output.
|
|
|
|
|
(For Python3 a different source may be needed,
|
2021-05-30 22:16:21 +05:30

2018-01-18 13:41:51 +05:30
|
|
|
* **geocodeglib**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A library use to associate a geographical position (latitude, longitude)
|
|
|
|
|
to a place name. This is used if you already have osmgpsmap installed.
|
|
|
|
|
If installed, when you add or link a place from the map, you have a red line
|
|
|
|
|
at the end of the table for selection.
|
|
|
|
|
Debian, Ubuntu, ... : gir1.2-geocodeglib-1.0
|
|
|
|
|
Fedora, Redhat, ... : geocode-glib
|
|
|
|
|
openSUSE : geocode-glib
|
|
|
|
|
ArchLinux : geocode-glib
|
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
* **fontconfig**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Python bindings of fontconfig are required for displaying
|
|
|
|
|
genealogical symbols
|
|
|
|
|
|
2021-02-09 17:24:44 +05:30
|
|
|
* **magic**
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Python magic bindings required to have better performances with image
|
|
|
|
|
processing.
|
|
|
|
|
If this module is not available, we continue to use Gdk.
|
|
|
|
|
This avoid to load the image in memory. This is a real improvement
|
|
|
|
|
when we have many big images.
|
|
|
|
|
Used in odfdoc, rtfdoc and webreport and tested with png, gif, jpeg, bmp, tiff
|
|
