@ramberler1939,

done, please see the first post.

@tallboy,

I've petified debian packages for graphviz & ttf-freefonts, on the first page, but no idea if they're working properly with gramps?

cheers

hi muggins, thank you for the latest additions.

I get some warnings when starting gramps from a terminal window, but if the spell checker, image metadata and map functions are not needed, all other functions seem to work as intended. On my dpup484beta4, gramps is also faster that earlier versions.

Code:
6200: WARNING: Spell.py: line 60: Spelling checker is not installed
12365: WARNING: bottombar.gpr.py: line 90: WARNING: pyexiv2 module not loaded.  Image metadata functionality will not be available.
12573: WARNING: geography.gpr.py: line 42: WARNING: osmgpsmap module not loaded. Geography functionality will not be available.
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/share/gramps/gen/plug/_manager.py", line 219, in load_plugin
    _module = self.import_plugin(pdata)
  File "/usr/share/gramps/gen/plug/_manager.py", line 256, in import_plugin
    module = __import__(pdata.mod_name)
  File "/usr/share/gramps/plugins/docgen/LaTeXDoc.py", line 51, in <module>
    import Image
ImportError: No module named Image

When I tried to make graphs from the Reports menu, which gramps specifies that Graphviz is used to make, I get this error:
Code:
 error while loading shared libraries: libgvc.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The font choices with the graphs, besides unspecified Default, are limited to PostScript / Helvetica or TrueType / FreeSans. I am not sure if that is any indication of an error with ttf-freefonts.

I also tried running gramps in retroprecise_5.4.2 with exactly the same results. Since both puppies are debian/ubuntu based, the libgvc.so.5 may be a debian error, I don't know if slacko puppies get the same error message.

Gramps seem to work very well without the additional files and libs, but I am in a phase where adding people to gramps is the main task, not generating reports with graphics, so I haven't tested all functionality.

Just a note to say thank you again for your hard work and it works just like you said it would. I am using it with the latest download of Slakopuppy.

I really appreciate your efforts as gramps frees me from Windows.

Thanks, Mary

Hi, I am always coming to you with my hand out. Were you going to update the pet pkgs with this update or wait till 4.0 comes out?

Thanks,
Mary

OK, I've repackaged the debian gramps as gramps-3.4.3-3.sfs. (9.43Mbytes)

It comes with techno's python, libdb-4.4.so &, (hopefully working?), graphviz.

I tried getting spellcheck & osmgpsmap working but it is beyond my python enfeebled peabrain (I even tried using python easy_install & pip but couldn't even get them to work!)

Sorry it took so long to respond, the email notification got lost in my junk mail folder. I have corrected that. Thanks so much for all the effort you put into making this available. I do love this program. Mary
