Re: gEDA-user: Next spin of CD installer available

[Daniel J Wisehart <dw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Stuart,

I have the GUI from the 20050823 installer working on the install now.  I 
noticed that my machine had libglade2, but not libglade or glade, so I 
installed them.  When I did Yast2 picked up a bunch of Gnome dependencies 
that I also needed.  Then I re-ran the pango-querymodules program.  The next 
time I tried the installer it started up just fine.  

I had already installed wxGTK, but the installer decided it needed to install 
it--a later version?--again.  It took quite a while, but it did not time out 
even though I was using the 0823 installer.

At the moment the installer is installing a bunch of connector symbols.  I 
should know fairly soon if it is going to succeed or not.

More later,
Daniel
