Hi, Lamar I have a local build of a somewhat recent abiword: [herrold@centos-7 ~]$ rpm -qi abiword-3.0.1-4.el7.centos.x86_64 Name : abiword Epoch : 1 Version : 3.0.1 Release : 4.el7.centos Architecture: x86_64 Install Date: Thu 14 Apr 2016 04:20:03 PM EDT Group : Applications/Editors Size : 3888011 License : GPLv2+ Signature : (none) Source RPM : abiword-3.0.1-4.el7.centos.src.rpm but the current upstream SVN and its build instructions are simply too stale for words. I know there are some upstream fixes for Wayland and such, but the maintainer is not able get the time to stabilize and then to cut a currently working variant Would the SRPM do you any good? I seem to recall discussing this in the Sci Linux ML, but ...
Thanks, Russ. Yes, sure, the SRPM might do some good. I know Smooge has an Abiword build as well, and I've test-driven that one.
Going to close this as won't fix. If someone wants to step up to do the work it can be revived.
