Awn extras

[SousukeSagara]

For avant window navigator (awn) are there any of the extras for suse
11.1? I have downloaded the core application but the extras are not in
the repos? Anyone know where i can get the extras or if there are any
for 11.1?

Hi
You could build from the packman 11.0 source rpm, the spec file needs
modification to skip the python modules check.

Hi
Download the src rpm from the packman site then if you right-click on
it and select extract here. You should get 3 files, the tarball a spec
file and a patch file. You need to copy these three files
to /usr/src/packages/SOURCES. Open the spec file with a text editor and
in the %build section it should be modified to read like this;

%configure\
--disable-static \
--disable-pymod-checks

If you also look at the BuildRequires sections at the beginning it
shows your the files that need to be installed to build it.

Save it, then open a terminal in the /usr/src/packages/SOURCES and run
the following command;

rpmbuild -ba awn-extras-applets.spec

If all goes well you will see two files built;

/usr/src/packages/SRPMS/awn-extras-applets-0.2.6-1.pm.1.src.rpm
and
/usr/src/packages/i586/awn-extras-applets-0.2.6-1.pm.1.i586.rpm

either copy those files to your home directory to install or use;

sudo rpm
-Uhv /usr/src/packages/i586/awn-extras-applets-0.2.6-1.pm.1.i586.rpm

The above command is all one line. NOTE this is all done as your user
not root!.
