Re: [gcmd-dev] [gcmd-usr] Release of Gnome Commander 1.10.1

[kht-lists]

Thanks again Uwe,

That almost did the trick.  I ran into the following error:

File not found: 
/home/ken/rpmbuild/BUILDROOT/gnome-commander-1.10.1-1.el7.x86_64/usr/share/pixmaps/gnome-commander.png

The file is now gnome-commander.svg so I changed line 156 in the spec file:

%{_datadir}/pixmaps/%{name}.png to .svg and the compile completed.

I copied the .rpm file to another machine and attempted to install it over g-c 
1.8.1

------------
address@hidden Desktop]# yum localinstall 
gnome-commander-1.10.1-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities
Examining gnome-commander-1.10.1-1.el7.x86_64.rpm:

gnome-commander-1.10.1-1.el7.x86_64.rpm: does not update installed package.
Nothing to do

That was strange so I manually removed g-c 1.8.1 and tried my rpm again. It 
seems to have installed OK. However,

-------------
address@hidden Desktop]# gnome-commander

(gnome-commander:11051): GnomeUI-WARNING **: 14:27:44.735: While connecting to

Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped)

I also noted that my rpm was a LOT larger than the rpm for 1.8.1 from the 
nux-dextop repo


================================================================================

As a final trick I decided to install the rpm on my development virtual machine 
(the make install version works fine there). I have no idea how to "make 
uninstall" so I tried a reinstall with yum.

-------------
address@hidden x86_64]$ sudo yum reinstall 
gnome-commander-1.10.1-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
[sudo] password for ken:

Error: Problem in reinstall: no package matched to remove

I am making progress - at least I keep reminding myself of that :-)

Ken

p.s. When I get this process working I will write up my notes and provide them 
to you. Perhaps you can post them along with the source code for CentOS, RHEL 
and Scientific Linux users (until the fellow at nux-dextop has time to add the 
latest g-c to his repo.)
