Plus it has that cool antique look - looks great in the corner beside
xclock :)
Dag has stopped updating it, but the EL4 packages from
http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/xosview/
work just fine in FC6/7...
For 8T2 I had to recompile. That took two changes:
1) spec file line 37 - change dependency from xorg-x11-devel to
xorg-x11-proto-devel
2) snprintf fails to detect by configure which causes the compile to fail. The
problem isn't with the snprintf code but with the x lib detection a few
hundred lines earlier that end up causing a stray -L being passed to the
compiler when running the snprintf test.
I really didn't dig through the detection code - but if you change the code
around like 3327 from
case $host_os in
linux*)
LIBS="-L$x_libraries $LIBS"
ELF_LINK_FLAGS="" ;;
to
case $host_os in
linux*)
if test "x$x_libraries" != "x"; then
LIBS="-L$x_libraries $LIBS"
fi
ELF_LINK_FLAGS="" ;;
you'll get by... If you care you can figure out why $x_libraries isn't set
properly - for me the quick workaround was good enough.
