Tried to get install on any of the linux OS, but failed miserably.

The distro I have tried: CentOS5.2, failed at ./configure

./configure

Package pdf2djvu is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

Try to install using yum

check with the mirrors.


It is a Known bug with slightly older source files.

If a rpm is not available, then get the latest source and compile

You can also get it converted online.

On Ubuntu apt-get installs it fine ...I have it installed. Check your repositories. Have you enabled test repos??

centguy 08-17-2009 12:17 PM
on ubuntu how do you enable the test repos ?
I run synaptic and search for pdf2djvu but no still no luck.

ArfaSmif 08-17-2009 12:42 PM
Another way is to search for a precompiled package on http://rpm.pbone.net/

For ubuntu, add the following to /etc/apt/sources.list

replace hardy with your distro

Quote:
deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy universe
deb-src http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy universe
Then apt-get update

centguy 08-17-2009 09:28 PM
in conclusion still no luck after messing with source.list
