Anyone using xchm on Slackware?
 
Got some files, and they are in .chm.

Linux has xchm and I'm wondering if anyone
has installed it and if it was a tough install and does it work like xpdf?

thanks

I use xchm, it works like the windows help
I don't remember have any difficulty to install it

JockVSJock 07-23-2005 09:28 AM
I d/l xchm-0.9.6 and I read thru the install file, but don't see a configure to start the install.

BTW, I installed this under /usr/local/share.

I do see a .bin in xchm, but I get an error saying libwx_gtk-2.4.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.

How do you install this?

thanks

You need the wxGTK package available at :
http://www.linuxpackages.net/pkg_details.php?id=5819

It seems you need wxGTK and wxWidgets to get it running. I think there are packages for Slackware in http://linuxpackages.net

There also seems to be unofficial Slackware packages (with SlackBuild which is cool some you can use them yourself) of xCHM in http://mariner.cs.ucdavis.edu/slackw...es/xchm-0.9.8/ there's also wxGTK on there.

Edit: mostly what keefaz said ;)

Do I want to install this under /usr/local/share.

Any advice on how to set this up?

thanks

Install the .tgz file as root with :
Code:
installpkg name_of_package.tgz

Still getting this error after install wxgtk

Code:

./xchm
./xchm: error while loading shared libraries: libwx_gtk-2.4.so: cannot open shared object file:  No such file or directory

do a search for libwx_gtk.so..............if it is there, just make a symlink

Code:
libwx_gtk.so >  libwx_gtk-2.4.so

I've searched and can't find anything...

Just by curiousity, did you install wxGTK pkg as suggested in previous posts ?

JockVSJock 08-03-2005 05:05 PM
I installed under:

/usr/local/share/wxgtk

keefaz 08-04-2005 02:40 AM
It is a weird location, did you install it from sources ? (= did you compile it ?)

If yes, you did ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/share/wxgtk ?

If yes to all, add /usr/local/share/wxgtk/lib in /etc/ld.so.conf and run
ldconfig

JockVSJock 08-04-2005 07:27 AM
I did the installpkg and I don't believe it installed it.

Now I used tar -xzvf and now I'm seeing different directories, but I read the install.txt and I don't even see a ./configure to get the install process going...

This is really weird.

***BUMP***


I still can't get this to work....
