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
|
|
|
|

If WEBKIT ang GECKO are installed, webkit will be used.

The User Manual is now maintained on the gramps website,
|

|
|
|
http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=User_manual

Building on non-Linux systems: i18n support and GNU make
|
|
|
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------
|
2006-04-05 03:19:19 +05:30
|
|
|
If make fails, use gmake (the name FreeBSD gives to GNU make) instead.
|
2007-08-18 14:48:43 +05:30
|
|
|
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
