"UNSTABLE Gramps 4.0.0 Alpha5 release.
|
||
|
||
This is a technology preview to allow plugin writers and packagers-installer
|
||
writers to update their plugins and scripts. This release is not production
|
||
ready, so use for testing!"
|
||
|
||
It is recommended to use Gramps 4.0.0 with python 3.2 so as to be ready
|
||
for the future (python 2.7 works though).
|
||
|
||
The dependencies for Gramps 4.0.0 are _completely_ different than 3.4 due
|
||
to the switch to GObject introspection, and the removal of autotools. So
|
||
only install 4.0.0 if you are certain you can obtain the dependencies,
|
||
see README and INSTALL.
|
||
|
||
For linux, in Ubuntu 12.10 you can install 4.0.0, but you will need to
|
||
compile and install osmgpsmap manually to have the maps working (see
|
||
http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=GEPS_029:_GTK3-GObject_introspection_Conversion#OsmGpsMap_for_Geography )
|
||
|
||
|
||
Major enhancements in Gramps 4.0.0:
|
||
|
||
* GEP 8: code reorganization: http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=GEPS_008:_File_Organization
