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

gtkhtml: gtkhtml is the soon-to-be-released replacement for the
|
gtkhtml
|
||||||
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.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
It also works as an HTML editor, but I haven't tried that yet; might
|
gtkhtml was stored here, but now there are more recent versions
|
||||||
be nice for future stuff like "live" report editing.

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.
