GTK 3.0 or greater
pygobject 3.3.2 or greater
librsvg2 (svg icon view)
xdg-utils

The following package is needed for full translation of the interface
to your language:

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:

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/

src/plugins/view/htmlrenderer.py and
src/plugins/view/geoview.gpr.py, so as to remove:
from gi.repository import WebKit as webkit
