Re: [Dillo-dev]Compiling 0.8.0 Debian

by TBLittlefoot

Thanks to the guidance of Paul, Kelson, and Madis, I know have Dillo 0.8.0 installed and configured and it looks VERY sharp and several things have obviously been corrected, such as being able to just hit Space to move down a screenful and without having to use the mouse at all. If I encounter any difficulties I will submit a bug report. I was really serious about this: I'm one of these weirdos that doesn't like to fondle plastic rodents :-) and wonder how difficult it would be to have an option that would number all the links on a page and allow one to enter that number instead of clicking on the link. I use w3m a lot for my-1st stage surfing, and it allows me to Tab down to a link and then hit Return, but that's pretty clumsy. (When I encounter a site needing a closer look, I bring up Dillo, although this would be easier, come to think of it, if I just used Dillo and disabled image downloading at first. That IS possible??)

I took the safe route and just mved my current sources.list to sources.list~ and then created a new one with the above entries and followed your directions (while connected to the internet). But, I jumped into attempting to compile 0.8.0 after reading Kelson's reply and just installing the glib-dev files then got these warnings from config: configure: WARNING: *** No libz found. Disabling PNG images *** configure: WARNING: *** No libjpeg found. Disabling jpeg images.*** So I guess I better delete the sources dir and start over again... Thanks a lot. I appreciate your patience here.

Kelson and Madis, Thanks much. Having a rough time here. I've only used apt-get with the CDs (which are the only entries in my /etc/apt/sources.list) Everything went fine except.... apt-get install libpng2-dev Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: libpng2-dev: Depends: zlib1g-dev but it is not going to be installed E: Sorry, broken packages So then I did: apt-get install zlib1g-dev Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies: zlib1g-dev: Depends: zlib1g (= 1:1.1.3-18) but 1:1.1.4-1 is to be installed E: Sorry, broken packages So apparently I need zlib1g-dev_1.1.4-1.0woody0_i386.deb which matches my version of zlib1g and found it at ftp.debian.org but don't know where to go from here. Currently trying to make sense of the apt man pages :-) Tom

Dillo NEEDS >glib My guess: apt-get install libglib1.2-dev libgtk1.2-dev It sounds like you have the glib libraries, but not the development files on your box. You'll need the gtk devel files also, and between the two of them they should pull in anything else required. Kelson Vibber www.hyperborea.org

[Dillo-dev]Compiling 0.8.0 Debian

by TBLittlefoot

Greetings Dillo People, I ran into a problem compiling Dillo from the latest tarball, and didn't want totarget anyone specifically, so I hope you don't mind me posting this here.... Been over and over the INSTALL file. I'm running 0.6.2-1, installed from the CDs with apt-get: (Debian 3.0 with kernel 2.4.19) Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.4-2), libglib1.2 (>= 1.2.0), libgtk1.2 (>= 1.2.10-2), libjpeg62, libpng2 (>= 1.0.12), x xlibs (>> 4.1.0), zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.3)libs (>> 4.1.0), zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.3) Here's what happens when I run ./config for 0.8.0 ---------> #./configure checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for gawk... no checking for mawk... mawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking for gcc option to accept ANSI C... none needed checking for style of include used by make...

Dillo NEEDS glib endquote There's no glib/GLIB in any /bin on my box, and no file called glib-config. Would that be a file that would only exist if I had compiled libglib myself? The latest .deb is nowhere near what's available in the tarball and I want the latest. Nice browser, even as is. I dumped Skipstone for it. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, Tom

I downloaded, extracted, read install and readme, then run ./configure. So maybe it's lost at the download. Or maybe some of my software has a bug (I already have a candidate: Linux FAT-FS). But anyway it's my fault from Dillo's point of view. Because a file being no there which should be already there, that would have lead to many reports. So I download it again. That should fix it. Thanks. > If you took 0.8.0 from CVS, just run ./autogen.sh before ./configure No, wasn't from CVS. Kind regards Peter Wiehe

[Dillo-dev]Mozilla (was src/IO/Makefile.in missing)

by Peter Wiehe

(I've taking the liberty to answer this private mail on the list. If that is against Your will, jump up and down and shout, and I will apologize.) > All of the above & I am not a programmer <grin>.. Thanks for the help especially as You aren't a programmer. IAAPBIHNCAAE I am a programmer but I have no clue about autoconf either :) I don't mean running ./configure but I mean writing/modifiying/understanding 'Makefile.in', 'depcomp', whatever. BTW I'm currently downloading Mozilla sources. Mozilla has definitively its good aspects. But the download says at the very start: 5.5 KB/sec :-) Time left 1 hour 15 minutes :-( 31380 KB :-o Anyone still believing Dillo is obsolete? ;-) Interesting to know that Internet Explorer and Mozilla use the same code base as ancestor! Did You know that? And I've taken a look at Zen another browser, circa the same size as Dillo. But Zen is unmaintained, C++ and most importantly, Dillo sources seem more nicely structured than Zen (from aesthetical and technical view). Kind regards Peter Wiehe

Docu gives the impression someone should and need not do this. I did it now. Have to update autoconf to 2.54+. If I have done so, the chances are good, that autoconf fixes my problem? > note: IANAP... I am not a person? Intel architecture notoriously abandons productivity? I ate Nachos and Pizza?
