Icons


  I love ROX, but I miss one feature that Gnome has....resizeable icons. A right
click on an icon allow you to adjust its size. Any chance that ROX will one day have
it?

Cheers

Frank

Unable to install rox

Hi

I am a newbie to linux. I am currently running Suse 10.2 (amd64). I
downloaded rox from sourceforge. I see that it has rpm for suse 9.3.
Despite difference in version, I optimistically installed the
zeroinstall-injector rpm.

Whn I ran 0launch -g I got following error :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/0launch", line 2, in <module>
    from zeroinstall.injector import cli
ImportError: No module named zeroinstall.injector

alok-laptop:/data3/sources/rox-all-1.2 # modprobe zeroinstall-injector
FATAL: Module zeroinstall_injector not found.

Even modprobe fails to detect the module. Can some one guide me on how
to proceed...

Thanks,
Alok

Most likely SUSE has upgraded to Python 2.5 since 9.3. I'm trying to
build RPMs using the SUSE build service. Unfortunately, I don't have a
SUSE system to try it on, so I'm doing this blind!

Could you try this package please?

http://ftp.iasi.roedu.net/mirrors/opensuse.org/repositories/home:/talex5/openSUSE_10.2/repodata/repoview/zeroinstall-injector-0-0.30-12.1.html

There's a good chance it won't work, but please post the errors you get here!
(if anyone else has a SUSE system and wants to help, please let me know too)

If it doesn't work, you can probably get the 9.3 version working by
creating a symlink, e.g.:

Re: Unable to install rox

Hi Thomas,

You are right. Suse 10.2 has python 2.5.
I tried to install the rpm you had specified but was unable to do so...
First I got following dependency issue:

error: Failed dependencies:
        pygtk2 is needed by zeroinstall-injector-0.30-12.1.noarch
        pygtk2-libglade is needed by zeroinstall-injector-0.30-12.1.noarch

I am pretty sure that I have python-gtk. Anyways I still downloaded
pygtk latest source and tried to compile it, but here again there was
another dependency issue:

No package 'pygobject-2.0' found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables PYGOBJECT_CFLAGS
and PYGOBJECT_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

I did not know what to do after this so I stopped...

Thanks,
Alok

It is not a kernel module.  It is a python module.  You may have a 
problem with your PYTHON_PATH setup.  For example, if the rpm put the 
module in one location, but Suse 9.3 expects it to be in another one, 
this error will happen.  Normally it should go in 
/usr/lib/python[version]/site-packges/.  Check to see if the rpm put it 
somewhere else.

You're probably right. What I need to know is: what is the "pygtk2"
package called on SUSE?

BTW, you can install my RPM for testing using --nodeps, just to see if it works.

You shouldn't need to compile any of the dependencies from source; we
need to make an RPM that works for SUSE users directly!

Thanks,

Re: Unable to install rox

I am not sure what it is called in Suse. It may be python-gtk (thats
what appears in the package manager). But modeprobe does not detect
it...

alok-laptop:/home/alok # modprobe python-gtk
FATAL: Module python_gtk not found.
alok-laptop:/home/alok # rpm -aq | grep python-gtk
python-gtk-2.10.3-11

I will try installing the rpm with nodep and let you know...

Thanks,
Alok

It is installed at /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/zeroinstall as
well as at  /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/zeroinstall

OK, I think I've got it now. I've created a new project on the build
service which depends on zeroinstall-injector and just prints the
version. Currently, everything passes except Mandriva 2006, which
means that at least the dependencies exist.

For SUSE, I used python-gnome instead of python-libglade, because that
didn't seem to exist. Does it have the glade stuff?

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/talex5/openSUSE_10.2/repodata/
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/talex5/Fedora_7/repodata/
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/talex5/Mandriva_2007/repodata/

(note: the pages list both packages, you DO NOT want to install the -test one!)

     I have compiled and installed ROX Filer for SuSE 10.2 on an AMDx64-2
processor. The only real problem was that the compilation seemed to find
the x86 libraries (lib) rather than lib64 libraries.

     I found that I had to modify a script which looked for the libraries
to get it to test for and use the lib64 variants. The same was true when
compling ROX Clib for other applications.

     Some x86 binaries appear to work OK (I use Amaya for example), others
don't work - generally due to some low-level library usage incompatibility.

     I have had to build OroboROX and Pager too. Apart from some minor
problems needing for me to 'hack' some of the "feeds" with ZeroInstall I
have a working system - stable for a couple of months now.
