"SfR Fresh" - the SfR Freeware/Shareware Archive

Member "scribus-1.3.3.12/PACKAGING" of archive scribus-1.3.3.12.tar.gz:

As a special service "SfR Fresh" has tried to format the requested source page into HTML format using source code syntax highlighting with prefixed line numbers. Alternatively you can here view or download the uninterpreted source code file. That can be also achieved for any archive member file by clicking within an archive contents listing on the first character of the file(path) respectively on the according byte size field. 
    1 Packagers notes:
    2 
    3 * All final release source tarballs are gpg signed to ensure their integrity. 
    4 You can verify them with:
    5 
    6 gpg --verify ./tarball.sig ./tarball.tar.bz2
    7 
    8 While we also note md5sums and shasums, gpg --verify is more secure and reliable.
    9 
   10 * The font sampler script, requires tkinter to run properly and optionally 
   11 python-imaging to enable print previews. Please consider adding these as 
   12 requires, even though configure does not explicitly check for them:
   13 
   14 * In the past some plug-ins were distributed separately which are now 
   15 part of the main package. Please consider adding:
   16 
   17 	Obsoletes:      scribus-svg
   18 	Obsoletes:      scribus-scripting
   19 	Obsoletes:      scribus-short-words
   20 	Obsoletes:      scribus-vlna
   21 
   22 to ensure these old packages are removed on upgrade.
   23 
   24 * Currently, the full en documentation is included in the tarball, Please
   25 note it is licensed differently from the application source. We may decide to 
   26 distribute them separately. In any case, a monolithic scribus application
   27 plus docs package should also obsolete all prior docs packages.
   28 
   29 	Obsoletes:      scribus-i18en
   30 	Obsoletes:      scribus-i18de
   31 	Obsoletes:      scribus-i18fr
   32 
   33 * Some of the hyphenation dictionaries are under the LGPL or other free
   34 licenses, not the GPL. Details for each are in the README_XX.xx.txt for
   35 each corresponding language.
   36 
   37 * You might notice that configure can check for the cairo libaries, this is not the
   38 default, and can be considered experimental. We do not recommend building against cairo
   39 for packaging.

   57 * We have included a scribus.xml file for updating the mime info database. 
   58 We are still missing some locales, but in our testing it works properly. 
   59 We now have IANA approval for our mime type.
   60 
   61 An example command to install and refresh the mime database in a spec file 
   62 (distro specfic macros might vary):
   63 
   64 %install
   65 
   66 install -d $RPM_BUILD_ROOT{%{_desktopdir},%{_pixmapsdir},%{_datadir}/mime/packages/}
   67 install scribus.xml $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_datadir}/mime/packages/scribus.xml
