[odf-discuss] Problem with Google Code

Hi Peter,

Yeah, I'll add a README. Btw, you can install with a traditional "make"
and "make install" (run 'make install' as root). That will be in the
README. I'll also add a copy of the GPL.

Huh?  I don't understand what happened here.

I didn't write that error. I can only assume that one of the commands
that my shell script calls has different options between your computer
and mind. *that* would be really surprising because I also have Ubuntu
Dapper x86.

You should be able to install with "make" and "make install" btw. You
could try that, just to confirm that it works. I'll be very surprised if
it doesn't.

Ok, this is useful. The reason why installer.sh didn't work is because
the other program sets some environment variables that installer.sh
needs.

Therefore, the failure must be happening before calling install.sh but
the only commands before install.sh are:

dirname $0
which zenity

That should be very safe. Could you try those two?

Incidentally, what installer.sh needs to work is this:

export XULRUNNER_VERSION=1.8.0.1
export ODFVIEWER_VERSION=beta1
export XULRUNNER_DIGEST="sha1=4768dce2b9f06ca42a8ea47560b4abcb94d5f077"
export ODFVIEWER_DIGEST="sha1=01a1236688c5941d0d28368efd79d64d4288760d"
export ROOT="$HOME/.local"
export PATH="$ROOT/bin":$PATH
export PYTHONPATH="$ROOT/lib/python":$PYTHONPATH

That would make install.sh work.


Cheers,
Daniel.
