This directory is intended to hold any external code that is needed in
order to build gnucash, but isn't considered widely available.
------------------------------------------------
gtkhtml: gtkhtml is the soon-to-be-released replacement for the
gtk-xmhtml widget that gnucash has used up to now. It has a few nifty
new features. The most important one for gnucash's purposes is that
it has direct support for gnome-print, which means that we can now get
nice-looking printouts of reports and help documents.
gtkhtml
-------
It also works as an HTML editor, but I haven't tried that yet; might
be nice for future stuff like "live" report editing.
gtkhtml was stored here, but now there are more recent versions
available from Helix Code <http://www.helixcode.com> in conveniently
packaged form.
YOU HAVE TO BUILD AND INSTALL GTKHTML BEFORE TRYING TO BUILD GNUCASH.
I suggest that you install it using the same $prefix you use to
install gnucash.
Building and installing gtkhtml:
--------------------------------
The default configure options for gtkhtml depend on the 'oaf' and
'gconf' packages, which are not yet available/functional, and we don't
need their functionality. It's important to turn them off in the
configure step. --without-gconf turns them both off.
If your gnucash install prefix is $prefix,
cd gtkhtml
./autogen.sh --prefix=$prefix --without-bonobo --without-gconf
make
make install
export GNOME_PATH=$prefix
The 'export GNOME_PATH' is critical if you are installing gtkhtml
somewhere besides /usr ; without it, the gnome-config script that
gnucash's configure depends on won't know that gtkhtml is installed.
If you have built and installed gtkhtml correctly, you should be able
to run the command 'gnome-config --libs gtkhtml' and see some
semi-meaningful output. If it reports 'Unknown library gtkhtml' you
need to make sure GNOME_PATH is set to your $prefix for gtkhtml.
Once gnome-config reports the correct locations for gtkhtml, you can
go through the normal gnucash configure/build process.
