We are coming up on the 1.0.9 release, and a few things are going to change with the packaging of releases. Currently, I have been releasing source code (.tar.gz), a Mandrake RPM and a Red Hat RPM. I won't be able to continue doing this with 1.0.9 and into the future. The reason is simple: I don't have the machines anymore. The Mandrake machine I had was an old 300MHz clunker that is being retired. My Red Hat 9 machine was upgraded to Fedora Core 3. The Fedora Core 3 RPM will not be backwards compatible with Red Hat 9 or Fedora Cores 1 & 2. So, unless someone is willing to come forward and build packages for Mandrake and older Red Hat/Fedora versions, from 1.0.9 forward, I will release: 1) Source code (.tar.gz) 2) Fedora Core 3 RPM For the 1.1/1.2 series, I will also release an Ubuntu .deb file. James Traecy has been providing Debian .deb packages, and Richard Bos has been providing SuSE packages. I can't begin to express how appreciative I am of this :-) Sorry for any inconvience the packaging changes will cause, but I just simply don't have the systems to build packages for other distributions. I would appreciate any help from the community on filling this gap. Don |

Trevor, It is actually pretty easy to do. All the hard work is already done. Download the gramps-1.0.9.tar.gz file from the SourceForge home page. $ su $ rpmbuild -tb gramps-1.0.9.tar.gz This should build the package, and put it in your /usr/src/RPM/RPMS/i586/ directory Once the package is built, you can contact me and I'll get it up on the SourceForge home page. This procedure should work for both Mandrake, Fedora Core, and Red Hat 9 distributions. The 1.0.9 tar.gz file should be up on the website Sunday. I will send out a notice.

Using Mandrake 10.1, I was able to build an rpm that I was then able to install for the new 1.0.10 version after installing a couple of additional packages that caused errors initially. However, I was not able to install the 1.1.3 unstable version. The rpm got built but when I tried to install it I get \ "gramps-1.1.3-1.i586 (due to unsatisfied gnome-python2-gconf[>= 1.99])". I do have gnome-python-gconf-2.0.3-1mdk installed on my PC and am wondering if it isn't getting picked up because of the way Mandrake names it's packages????

Mike, I haven't made the same modifications to the 1.1.3 spec file that I've made to the 1.0.X spec file. I will try to make these changes this week. The new 1.0.X spec file handles the naming differences. When I get the fixes in place, the spec file will handle these.

Don, That explains it. I know very little about building packages, etc., but would gladly try to help out. Thanks for the explanation.
