Do

What are the Fedora release 8 (Werewolf) build requirements?

Asked by Aaron Thul

I am trying to build this on my fresh new Fedora 8 install and I am struggling. I was able do:
$ bzr co http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~do-core/gc/trunk-md gnome-do
$ cd gnome-do
$ ./autogen.sh

However I am running into this:
No package 'ndesk-dbus-glib-1.0' found

It seems that if I was on Debian/Ubuntu I would install this: libndesk-dbus-glib1

I am unable to locate a suable Fedora 8 equivalent.
If anyone hase build this on Fedora 8 please let me know where I may have misstepped.

To build this you will need a total of 4 items:
ndesk-dbus-0.6.0
ndesk-dbus-devel-0.6.0
ndesk-dbus-glib
ndesk-dbus-glib-devel

You can snag them from the Koji, the Fedora Project build system

I just pushed gnome-do to Fedora 7 and Fedora 8 (it's been in Development for a while), as such you have the builddeps as well.

to get the builddeps for any program in the repos:

yum install yum-utils (you might also want to add rpmdevtools here to get all those nice compilers and helper tools)
yum-builddep <name for package>

If all you want if gnome-do without all that building a narly bazaar branch

yum --enablerepo=updates-testing install gnome-do (for now you need to add --enablerepo=updates-testing since the builds have not been marked stable).
