To +start from a fairly basic system, I suggest the following: + +1. Install the required gnome packages from your linux distribution's package + repositories. On a recent linux distribution, expect all to be available for + easy download and installation. If you already use gnome, most of the + packages will already be installed. Do confirm that python-gconf, + python-glade2, and gnome-python are installed, because they + may not be quite so common in a base system. + +2. Install pyexiv2. You can probably do that using your distributions's package + repositories (look for python-pyexiv2). But if not, there are instructions + here: + + http://tilloy.net/dev/pyexiv2/developers.htm + +3. Install this application from the tarball. You probably need to be the + super user (root) to be able to do this: + + sudo python setup.py install + + If you get an error saying 'Error while running msgfmt', you will need to + install the gettext package on your system, which contains the msgfmt + program. |
