Ideally, both 1.2 and 1.3 versions could be provided, as the 1.3 still lacks many features (but is assumed to catch on in the future). It would be very sad if Galeon was to disappear from Red Hat completely. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): galeon 1.2.11, ideally How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Well, there doesn't seem to be galeon in rawhide, every time I look, lately. Additional info:
The Severn Release Notes give some insight into what happened to Galeon. - galeon â Replaced by epiphany (Galeon 1.2.<x> series no longer maintained) Alternatively - you can download the following tarball: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/galeon/galeon-1.2.11.tar.gz?download *then*, feed it into rpmbuild (rpmbuild -tb <download path>/galeon-1.2.11.tar.gz). Provided you have all the packages required, it should produce a nice binary package for you.
Ugh. Didn't read the release notes, thanks for pointing that out (that they made it official). I somehow hoped that Red Hat will not follow the stupid^H^H^H^H^H^Hunfortunate decision of Gnome to dump Galeon. I cannot see how Epiphany can replate Galeon, having one third of its features. Is there any reason at all why the distribution couldn't contain _both_ Galeon and Epiphany? I tried to rebuild my own Galeon but failed, even when I tried to mimick the last RH galeon.rpm. I'm not good enough in autoconf / Gtk+ to debug it till the end and couldn't give it more than two hours, which was the time it took to get all the prerequisites together with repeated ./configure attempts. Anyway, if one is to compile own software, what is the point of using Red Hat and not Gentoo instead? It there a way for users to raise their voices favoring return of Galeon to RH distribution? Or is this CEO's decision, inrevokable?
Ah.. I just attempted to build the binary package myself. It seems that 1.2.11 is not compatible with the latest release of Mozilla. You will have to downgrade to Mozilla 1.3 to get it to build (theoretically).
Did you manage to figure our how deep the problem was? Would using 1.2.10 help? I can see that Gentoo distributes Mozilla 1.4r3 and Galeon 1.2.10a. So there must be a way to get at least those two versions to play together. Around here, quite a few people use Galeon 1.2. Both 1.3 and Epiphany are still far from being reasonable replacement -- heck, Epiphany got included in Red Hat distribution for the first time, it doesn't even have any public history. Forcing people to Mozilla will not be nice, since they once found their way from Mozilla to lightweight Galeon.
Did you try installing the following RPM? http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/galeon/galeon-1.2.10-1.i386.rpm?download
Sure I tried: # rpm -Uvh /tmp//galeon-1.2.10-1.i386.rpm error: Failed dependencies: mozilla = 1.3-0_rh8_xft is needed by galeon-1.2.10-1 libgtksuperwin.so is needed by galeon-1.2.10-1
You will have to recompile mozilla first by changing |- %define toolkit_options --enable-default-toolkit=gtk2 --disable-freetype2 --enable-xft |+ %define toolkit_options --enable-default-toolkit=gtk --enable-freetype2 --disable-xft in the .spec-file. Unfortunately, mozilla does not compile in current rawhide environment :(
Sorry, we're not including galeon at the moment.
