libgsf - Gnome structured file library ChangeLog

HOWTO


# libgsf
# ======
# Slackware 8.1 didn't include a 'libgsf' package, 9.0's includes version
# 1.7.2, 9.1's includes 1.8.2, 10.0, 10.1's include 1.9.1, and 10.2's
# includes 1.12.1

# I include the latest 1.11.x, 1.12.x, 1.13.x, and 1.14.x releases below,
# just in case someone needs the older version or you don't have all of the
# prerequisites for the newest one.

# If you ever want to uninstall libgsf, or just clean up files from
# an old version before installing a new one, cd into the source directory
# and run 'make uninstall' (as root).

# Prerequisites (for both versions):
# gawk
# sed
# grep
# glib-2.0 >= 2.0.0
# libxml2-2.0 >= 2.4.16
# zlib
# bzip2

# Install/update XML::Parser using perl's CPAN module:
su -c "perl -MCPAN -e shell"
o conf make_install_arg UNINST=1
o conf prerequisites_policy follow
install Bundle::CPAN
install XML::Parser
exit


# libgsf 1.11.1
# =============
# Prerequisites:
# pkg-config
# glib-2.0 >= 2.0.0
# libbonobo >= 2.0.0 (not required if you add --without-gnome)
# gnome-vfs-2.0 >= 2.2.0 (not required if you add --without-gnome)

# If you're building libgsf for something like wv2 and you don't have
# Gnome (or X) installed, you can add --without-gnome to the configure
# line below to skip building in bonobo and gnome-vfs (which you won't have).
