TODO |
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 2.2 or greater Gnome 2.0 or greater PyGTK2 1.99.14 or greater PyXML 0.7.1 or greater Many distributions already provide PyXML, but if your installation does not have it, you can get it from http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6473 The following packages are *STRONGLY RECOMMENDED* to be installed: Reportlab Enable creation of PDF documents http://www.reportlab.com Python Imaging Library (PIL) Enable generation of thumbnails for images http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil Documentation --------------------------------- Gramps documentation is supplied in the form of XML files, which will be installed in the GNOME help path(*). Gnome help browser (Yelp) uses these (properly installed) XML files to display the documentation. Of course, current HTML documentation can also be found on the gramps website, http://gramps.sourceforge.net/help.html (*) More precisely, they are installed in ${prefix}/share/gramps/gnome/help/gramps, where ${prefix} is given by the --prefix= option to configure (defaults to /usr). Building on non-Linux systems: i18n support and GNU make -------------------------------------------------------- Linux has libintl (GNU gettext) built-in the C library. Other systems are likely to have libintl as a separate or optional library. Also, other systems may have a different make utility. On those systems, like FreeBSD, you must tell configure where to find the libintl library and the libintl.h include file: CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include -L/usr/local/lib" ./configure --prefix=/usr/local Once you have done this, if make fails, use gmake (the name FreeBSD gives to GNU make) instead. -------------------------------- Donald Allingham dallingham@users.sourceforge.net
