Some folks on a11y IRC channel pointed out that Dots doesn't exist on openSUSE as a package and would like to see it packaged so they can use openSUSE. :-)
If anyone can take the lead on packaging this, would be great.
git://git.gnome.org/dots and and http://code.google.com/p/liblouisxml/
Note: While we have liblouis2 in our repository, it is an Orca dependency. The liblouisxml is a dependency for Dots.
Dots is braille translation software for documents used by braille printers. So quite useful, important to our visually-impaired users. And I think this should be part of the general GNOME pattern installation along with the other a11y tools (e.g. Orca) that we provide.
Thanks! Bryen M Yunashko
Hi It's built ;) along with liblouisxml in my home repo, the issue is liblouisxml is no longer under maintenance and moved to liblouisutdml which is also built (needs fixing for 11.4 though) So as advised by our GNOME folks, Dots needs to move to the new library, and needs recoding as appropriate, on my list of things todo ;) I have some other support related commitments to work on and will try and have a go at porting the code... -- Cheers Malcolm °¿° (Linux Counter #276890) openSUSE 12.1 (x86_64) Kernel 3.1.9-1.4-desktop up 19:45, 4 users, load average: 0.06, 0.15, 0.13 CPU Intel i5 CPU M520@2.40GHz | Intel Arrandale GPU -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-gnome+owner@opensuse.org
