Requirements
--------------------------------
The following packages *MUST* be installed in order for Gramps to work:
   Python 2.5 or greater
   PyGTK2 2.12 or greater
   librsvg2 (svg icon view)
   xdg-utils

The following packages are *STRONGLY RECOMMENDED* to be installed:
   GraphViz         Enable creation of graphs using GraphViz engine
                    http://www.graphviz.org

The following packages are *STRONGLY RECOMMENDED* to be installed:
   python-webkit    Enable html rendering for Geographic view and Web view
                    Be careful, webkit is always in a development phase.
                    If you get crashes, remove python-webkit and add the
                    gecko package instead.
   or
   python-gtkmozembed is the gecko equivalent to webkit which is more stable.
                    It can be python-gnome2-extras or python-gtkhtml2
                    depending on distributions.
   If WEBKIT ang GECKO are installed, webkit will be used.

The following packages are optional
   python gtkspell & python enchant :  Enable spell checking in the notes,
                    the first contains the libraries, the second is 
                    needed to query the installed languages. Both must
                    be present for spell check to activate
   ttf-freefont     More font support in the reports

No longer needed in 3.1:
   yelp             Gnome help browser. At the moment no help is shipped
No longer needed in 3.2:
   python glade bindings

Documentation
---------------------------------
The User Manual is now maintained on the gramps website,
http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=User_manual
We might in the future distribute again a manual via gnome-doc-utils, this has not
been decided yet though.


Building on non-Linux systems: i18n support and GNU make
--------------------------------------------------------
If make fails, use gmake (the name FreeBSD gives to GNU make) instead.
You might need a patch also. FreeBSD has in ports a patch (  /usr/ports/science/gramps/files)
you need to apply to po/Makefile.in.in
