I don't thing it will be that hard to get FLTK & Dillo2 into Fedora, the thing is that no one did it till now :). (And I ma pretty busy at work & uni :) ).
Thanks a lot for the explanation!
Although it may be difficult to get a FLTK2 package in the distro because FLTK2 doesn't have a stable release yet. I mean, if policies mandate not to include alpha or beta libraries, we're out...
It'd be good to know this (for Fedora, Ubuntu and Debian at least). That way we can ask the FLTK team about their schedule plans.
I hate to be taking up so much time from people I know are working so hard already, but let me ask just one more : should I be taking this up with Alpine people? Or is one of you going to do that? (You could certainly do it a lot better.) Or have you determined that the trouble is in Fedora and not in Alpine?
I ended installing alpine here to check this issue. The URL viewer is taken from .mailcap. When set properly, it works (at least here it works with Ubuntu 8.04.1, so it's not an alpine issue). If you have something like this in your mailcap: (all in one line) text/html; /usr/local/bin/dillo -l -f '%s'; description=HTML Text; \ test=test -n "$DISPLAY"; nametemplate=%s.html it works with dillo1. Something like: text/html; /usr/local/bin/dillo -l -f -x XID '%s'; description=HTML Text; \ test=test -n "$DISPLAY"; nametemplate=%s.html makes dillo1 exit, so it doesn't work. Reason: XID should be a number containing a window ID, where dillo should embed itself, not a literal string! Note: dillo2 will work with the flawed parameter because as it can't embed itself yet, the parameter is blithely ignored! :-) HTH. -- Cheers Jorge.-
