Porting from gramps34 my fix for 6935, 6937, 6938.
Import with full "gramps." qualification from the tests,
to overcome the relative import problem (see bug# 6938 for context).
All testing code has been adjusted to the filename and paths
changes since gramps34.
Same as on gramps34, one test fails still, will investigate if
it is a test or a code bug:
ERROR: test_buffer_recall
(ErrorReportAssistant_Test.ErrorReportAssistantTest)
Test that simple recall of messages works.

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 2.7 or greater, Python 3.2 or greater (or both python versions)
GTK 3.0 or greater
pygobject 3.3.2 or greater
cairo, pango, pangocairo with introspection bindings (the gi packages)
librsvg2 (svg icon view)
xdg-utils
bsddb3 is required for Python 3.2 (not python 2.7)
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; e.g. for Dutch you need
language-pack-gnome-nl. The translation of the
Gramps strings is included with the gramps source.
The following packages are *STRONGLY RECOMMENDED* to be installed:
osmgpsmap Used to show maps in the geography view.
It may be osmgpsmap, osm-gps-map, or python-osmgpsmap,
but the Python bindings for this must also be present.
Without this the GeoView will not be active, see
http://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gramps_4.0_Wiki_Manual_-_Main_Window#Geography_Category
!! PACKAGERS: unfortunately, at the moment (March 2013),
the patches which gramps 4.0 needs osm-gps-map to have
are not yet released (as a new osm-gps-map version). The
osm-gps-map sources must be dated 6 February 2013 (or
later) to have the necessary patches. You may obtain
it from: http://nzjrs.github.com/osm-gps-map/ or else
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gramps/files/Dependencies
(The necessary version seems to be 0.8 -- or later.)
GraphViz Enable creation of graphs using GraphViz engine.
Without this, three reports cannot be run.
Obtain it from: http://www.graphviz.org
PyICU Improves localised sorting in Gramps. In particular, this
applies to sorting in the various views and in the
Narrative Web output. It is particularly helpful for
non-Latin characters, for non-English locales and on MS
Windows and Mac OS X platforms. If it is not available,
sorting is done through built-in libraries. PyICU is
fairly widely available through the package managers of
distributions. See http://pyicu.osafoundation.org/
(These are Python bindings for the ICU package.)
The following packages are optional
gtkspell Enable spell checking in the notes. Gtkspell depends on
enchant. A version of gtkspell with gobject introspection
is needed, so minimally version 3.0.0
rcs The GNU Revision Control System (RCS) can be used to manage
multiple revisions of your family trees. See info at
http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gramps_4.0_Wiki_Manual_-_Manage_Family_Trees#Archiving_a_Family_Tree
Only rcs is needed, NO python bindings are required
PIL Python Image Library is needed to crop
images and also to convert non-JPG images to
JPG so as to include them in LaTeX output.
(For Python3 a different source may be needed.)
GExiv2 Enables Gramps to manage Exif metadata embedded in your
media. Gramps needs version 0.5 or greater.
See http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=GEPS_029:_GTK3-GObject_introspection_Conversion#GExiv2_for_Image_metadata
ttf-freefont More font support in the reports
gir-webkit GObject introspection data of WebKit is required for the
hidden view 'Htmlview', which 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:
from gi.repository import WebKit as webkit
goocanvas2:
Required for the (user-downloadable) Graphview plugin
No longer needed in 4.0:
pygoocanvas, pygtk, pyexiv2
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
