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 successfully running it on Slackware Linux

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,

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

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 file displays martian characters instead. 'printenv' shows me

hello, I'm going to try this question again. The first time I botched it and the answers I got were useless. I want to use rpmdevtools to help with some packaging chores. There is no C5 version that I can find. I've located an SRC RPM in a location that is known to be C5 compatible. There are 2 versions of rpmdevtools:

Is there somewhere a succinct guide to just how much extra crud we need to install on RHEL to make use of EPEL packages?

Hi, I'm currently fiddling with G4U (Ghost for Unix), and I need to setup a local FTP server in order to get it to work. # yum groupinstall "FTP Server" --> installed vsftpd Here's what I'd like to do : * no anonymous access * only one user (user 'install' / pass 'install') The machine I'm installing it on has a static IP ok

Now that the basic server is up and running.? With Gnome via VNC (yuck), it is time to go back and figure out howto install Xfce without an Xfce group script.? So I am asking those with X64 Centos for some pointers.? Like where are the group scripts so maybe I can modify them for armhfp. I was reading: https://www.rootusers.com/how-to-install-xfce-gui-in-centos-7-linux/ Where the author

Hi, Is there any 'explodepkg' equivalent for the rpm command? What I want is simply uncompress an RPM package to get the files directly, but I didn't find anything in rpm's manpage. Cheers, Niki Kovacs

I thought I had all the tools I needed for this, but it seems something is missing. When I build the 2.6.18-8.1.3 kernel from source, I get this error: extracting debug info from /var/tmp/kernel-2.6.18-8.el5.trace-root/usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-8.el5.trace-x86_64/scripts/conmakehash extracting debug info from

Hi, folks, Trying to build a package from a gzipped tarball of a python package. I'm trying to build it in /root/rpmbuild. Python has a way to build it, but it creates its own tree, with a clone of the rpmbuild tree under *that*. So, from the specfile, I'm trying to understand, after much googling, what I need to change the Source and BuildRoot to. My latest try for the latter is

On CentOS5 I was used to create a simple spec file where at the end I'll declare files and directories I wan't to package: --< Snip >-- %files %dir /opt/myapp %dir /opt/myapp/bin %dir /opt/myapp/etc /opt/myapp/bin/exec01 /opt/myapp/etc/myapp.conf ---- I'll copy the file in /usr/src/redhat/SPECS and run "rpmbuild -bb myapp.spec". On CentOS6 rpm-build package no longer

Hi, Are there tutorials available in official CentOS documentation for writing RPM Spec file Regards Kaushal
