Hi, I just installed GtkCDLabel, a nifty little app to create CD covers in a matter of minutes, if not seconds, and which I've been using on a daily basis on Slackware (previous system). I've encountered some encoding issues. Whenever my CD text contains french special characters like ?, ?, ? and ?, the resulting .ps fil...

Hi, I've been using the nifty little application Gtkcdlabel for making CD and DVD covers since 2005, if I remember correctly. Later versions are written in Python, and it's a graphical frontend to the cdlabelgen utility. The application doesn't look very well maintained, since the 1.15 release dates back to 2011. Nevertheless, I've been success...

I did some more research, and it looks like the problem is NOT related to missing fonts. I installed a vanilla CentOS 7 desktop, activated EPEL, installed cdlabelgen, downloaded Gtkcdlabel, installed it, ran it... and it worked out of the box. Now what happened? I *think* the culprit here may be fontconfig-infinality and freetype-infinality, which I installed from the Nux-Dextop repository. I have a much nicer font rendering on my CentOS desktop using these two packages, the sort yo...

I searched some more and I *think* I found a bit of valuable information. The problem seems to come from the cdlabelgen backend. As far as I can tell, it uses the

...on without bothering about customizing. I'm on dialup, so I try to choose a mixture of rpm and yum, e. g. I do 'yum install something', take a peek at what is needed, and then install as much as I can from the CD's using rpm -ivh. I want to build an app (cdlabelgen and its frontend gtkcdlabel) from a source RPM, since the binary has a few encoding weirdnesses. I've never built a source RPM (using Slack before), now I wonder: what tools (packages) do I need for this, besides rpm-build, gcc, autoconf etc.? Niki Kovacs
