Binary wxMozilla RPMs for Fedora Core 4 & 5
Binary wxMozilla-0.5.6 and wxMozilla-python-0.5.6 RPMs which have dependencies on wxGTK-2.6.3 and wxPython-2.6.3.2 from Fedora Extras can be found under:
Building wxMozilla from a SRPM
Source RPMs for wxMozilla-0.5.6 which build cleanly against wxGTK-2.6.3 and wxPython-2.6.3.2 from Fedora Extras can be found in the SRPMS folders, here:
wxMozilla can be built and installed by issuing something like the following:| rpmbuild --rebuild wxMozilla-0.5.6-1.fc5.src.rpm rpm -ivh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/wxMozilla-0.5.6-1.i386.rpm rpm -ivh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386/wxMozilla-python-0.5.6-1.i386.rpm |
If you are using x86-64 Fedora, replace i386 in the above with x86_64.
If you do not have the rpmbuild command, issue 'yum install rpm-build' to install it.
If the above rpmbuild line complains about any missing dependencies, issue 'yum install dependency_name', where dependency_name corresponds to a missing dependency.
After installing the wxMozilla and wxMozilla-python RPMs, you may encounter problems resolving RPM dependencies with a yum update if a newer version of Mozilla becomes available. This is due to wxMozilla having a strict RPM dependency on the version of Mozilla it was compiled against. If you encounter the problem, issue the following:
| rpm -e wxMozilla wxMozilla-python |
Then perform the update and then rebuild the wxMozilla and python-wxMozilla RPMs from the SRPM...
