Description Rigo 2002-08-29 10:57:31 UTC
When I want to start gramps it tells me:

bash-2.05a$ gramps
/usr/bin/python: can't open file '/usr/share/gramps/gramps.py'

This is correct, because I saw during output it installed in /usr/share direct...

Probably einstall doesn't work correct for this ebuild..


Regards, Rigo

Yes, this is a shame because it's a really good program.  This is how I got it
working:

emerged gramps from konsole and looked at which files it was installing to
/usr/share.

tried to create directory /usr/share/gramps - this failed because ther is an xml
file /usr/share/gramps - renamed this to gramps1

mkdir /usr/share/gramps.  Move all files listed in konsole output for /usr/share
to /usr/share/gramps - renaming gramps1 to gramps afterwards.

move /usr/share/{data,filters,plugins} to /usr/share/gramps

Yipee! it works.  The ebuild looks a bit sparse and I'm not clever enough to fix
that - I wish someone would.

A *masked* gramps 0.8.0 has been cvs committed.
Like gramps, unmask and give it a try.
Otherwise, wait for the freeze to be over.
