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 2.5 or greater PyGTK2 2.12 or greater librsvg2 (svg icon view) xdg-utils 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 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: GraphViz Enable creation of graphs using GraphViz engine http://www.graphviz.org The following packages are *STRONGLY RECOMMENDED* to be installed: PyWebKitGtk or python-gtkmozembed: PACKAGERS, Test if on your distribution webkit and Gramps is stable. If you get crashes, patch src/plugins/view/htmlrenderer.py and src/plugins/view/geoview.gpr.py, so as to remove: import webkit Then use the gecko package (python-gtkmozembed) instead. If WEBKIT ang GECKO are installed, webkit will be used as the javascript engine is faster (google maps). * PyWebKitGtk Enable html rendering for Geographic view and Web view Often called python-webkit package. Be careful, webkit is always in a development phase. * python-gtkmozembed Enable html rendering for Geographic view and Web view The gecko (firefox) equivalent to webkit, at the moment of writing, more stable than webkit. It can be in python-gnome2-extras or python-gtkhtml2 depending on distributions. The following packages are optional python gtkspell & python enchant : Enable spell checking in the notes, the first contains the libraries, the second is needed to query the installed languages. Both must be present for spell check to activate ttf-freefont More font support in the reports No longer needed in 3.1: yelp Gnome help browser. At the moment no help is shipped No longer needed in 3.2: python glade bindings Documentation --------------------------------- The User Manual is now maintained on the gramps website, http://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php?title=User_manual We might in the future distribute again a manual via gnome-doc-utils, this has not been decided yet though. Building on non-Linux systems: i18n support and GNU make -------------------------------------------------------- If make fails, use gmake (the name FreeBSD gives to GNU make) instead. 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 -------------------------------- Donald Allingham dallingham@users.sourceforge.net benny.malengier@gramps-project.org
