[Paul Smith]

Dear All

Does somebody know about the existence of a rpm for PyX for FC5?

Thanks in advance,

Paul

I'm not aware of one, but then I've never heard of it until reading this
thread. It looks interesting. I'll try to whip an rpm together.

Let me know how this works:

http://mpeters.us/PyX/

It's built with both the build_t1strip and pykpathsea C extensions
enabled.

After installing it - you'll have to edit
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pyx/siteconfig.py

The installer has a bug that puts in the install root, resulting in
brokeness.

That file should have the following contents:

lfsdir = '/usr/share/pyx'
sharedir = '/usr/share/pyx'
pyxrcdir = '/etc'

Then it will work. Well, did for me anyway ... ;)

I just put some packages up that don't have that problem - they should
"just work"

Thanks a lot, Michael. I have just tried your rpm and it works just
fine. Maybe, people from extras repository could consider the
inclusion of it on extras repository.

I'll try to review it later today if nobody's taken it by then.
