From 76266ceff8f2ffaae45a49e02ec9745c3e48a56e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dave Peticolas Date: Thu, 24 Aug 2000 21:55:20 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Remove gtkhtml from lib directory. Newer and better versions are available elsewhere. git-svn-id: svn+ssh://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk@2702 57a11ea4-9604-0410-9ed3-97b8803252fd --- lib/README | 46 +++++----------------------------------------- 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+), 41 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/README b/lib/README index 1ca4997908..7eb6ae4557 100644 --- a/lib/README +++ b/lib/README @@ -1,51 +1,15 @@ - 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 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.
