Please read the COPYING file first. If building from source, also read the INSTALL file (at least through the "SUPER-SHORT VERSION") before going further. Requirements -------------------------------- The following packages *MUST* be installed in order for Gramps to work: Python 2.6 or greater PyGTK2 2.16 or greater librsvg2 (svg icon view) xdg-utils The following package is needed for full translation of the interface to your language: language-pack-gnome-xx Translation of GTK elements to your language, with xx your language code eg for Dutch you need language-pack-gnome-nl. The translation of the Gramps strings is included with the source code. The following packages are *STRONGLY RECOMMENDED* to be installed: osmgpsmap Used to show maps in the geography view. Without this the GeoView will not be active, see http://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gramps_3.3_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window#Geography_Category The package is named osmgpsmap, osm-gps-map or python-osmgpsmap. Or obtain it from: http://nzjrs.github.com/osm-gps-map/ GraphViz Enable creation of graphs using GraphViz engine. Without this no beautiful graphs can be created. Obtain it from: http://www.graphviz.org pyexiv2 Enables Gramps to manage Exif metadata embedded in your media. Gramps needs version 0.1.3 or greater. Obtain it from: http://tilloy.net/dev/pyexiv2/download.html The following packages are optional python gtkspell Enable spell checking in the notes, gtkspell contains the libraries. ttf-freefont More font support in the reports PyWebKitGtk or python-gtkmozembed: The hidden view 'Htmlview' allows websites to be opened in Gramps. Users can unhide the view in the plugin manager. A html renderer must be installed to use the view. !! PACKAGERS, Test if on your distribution webkit and Gramps is stable. If you obtain crashes, patch src/plugins/view/htmlrenderer.py and src/plugins/view/geoview.gpr.py, so as to remove: import webkit Then use the gecko package (python-gtkmozembed) instead. If WEBKIT ang GECKO are installed, webkit will be used as the javascript engine is faster (google maps). * PyWebKitGtk Enable html rendering for the Web view. Often called python-webkit package. Be careful, webkit is always in a development phase. * python-gtkmozembed Enable html rendering for the Web view in case PyWebKitGtk is not available or to be used if webkit is unstable. It can be in python-gnome2-extras or python-gtkhtml2 depending on distributions. python-pygoocanvas: Required for the experimental Graphview plugin No longer needed in 3.3: python-enchant Enchant No longer needed in 3.2: python glade bindings No longer needed in 3.1: yelp Gnome help browser. At the moment no help is shipped 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 -------------------------------- The Gramps Project http://gramps-project.org
