gnome-vfs - Gnome virtual file system ChangeLog

HOWTO


# gnome-vfs
# =========
# Slackware 9.0's 'gnome-vfs' package includes 2.2.2, 9.1's includes 2.4.0,
# 10.0 and 10.1's include 2.6.1.1  As of Slackware 10.2, GNOME is no longer
# included.

# Prerequisites (for all versions):
# Perl
# pkg-config
# Glib-2.0 >= 2.0.0
# libxml-2.0 >= 2.2.8
# gconf-2.0 >= 1.1.1
# libbonobo-2.0 >= 2.0.0
# bonobo-activation-2.0 >= 1.0.0 (included with recent versions of libbonobo)
# gettext
# bzip2
# cdparanoia
# OpenSSL
# ORBit-2.0 >= 2.4.0
# gnome-mime-data-2.0
# fam (optional)
# popt

# I include several different versions here, each one for different major
# release of Gnome, but keep in mind that I only actually use the Gnome
# 2.16.x version myself.

# Obviously if you use IPv6 and you come across a configure line below with
# --disable-ipv6 below on it, you'll want to skip that.

# Below, I remove gnome-vfs-2.0.mo files that get installed because I am
# in the USA and I only read/write (well) English.  If that is not the case
# for you, skip that part (find /usr/share/locale ...).

# Recent versions of gnome-vfs (or at least their configure script) require
# the XML::Parser Perl module:
su -c "perl -MCPAN -e shell"
o conf prerequisites_policy follow
o conf make_install_arg UNINST=1
install Bundle::CPAN
install XML::Parser
exit


# gnome-vfs 2.2.5 (for Gnome 2.2.x)

#  or linuxdoc-tools packages)
