I downloaded this application Welcome to the Mnemosyne Project | The Mnemosyne Project and I’m trying to get it to work.
According to the readme these are the dependencies. :
-Python 2.4 or later (http://www.python.org)
-PyQt 3.x (http://www.riverbankcomputing.co.uk/software/pyqt/download3)
-pygame and its dependencies (http://www.pygame.org)
-If you want to be able to enter formulas using latex syntax, make sure that
latex is installed.
-EasyInstall from http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall
I installed all except for Latex. and proceeded to run the python installer. everything went well, apparently, but when trying to run the app I get the following error.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/mnemosyne", line 5, in <module>

This is what I hate about linux. Installing applications that aren’t included in your distro’s repositories is a hell.
for now I just downloaded the windows version and ran it through wine. However it feels wrong having to do this when a native version is available.
I would appreciate any help in getting this to work.
Many thanks.
PS: I’m running openSuse 12.1 x86_64 and Kde 4.8.1. Kernel 3.1.9-1.4-desktop.
