Well,
I don't mind pushing a bit - becuase overall - dia looks pretty good.
So I took your automake stuff and nuked the symlinks with the revs you
sent and retried the build. Which worked much better but did eventally
error out with something like the following...((actually this stuff is
below)
living on the edge I gave app/run_dia.sh a go and dia fired up. And
loaded one of diagrams (call it 'A') and that looked/worked/printed
fine. The other diagram ('B') had the same problems as with 88.1. For
kicks I loaded A back in 88.1 and that appears/works/prints fine ; but B
misbehaves in both 88.1 and 89.0.
I am thinking something is strange with the dia file. Haven't
spelunked in the XML yet...but may try that (I kinda want the B diagram
enuff to try this). I will note that the 'virtual canvas' with diagram
B looks funny - by this I mean, the rulers seem to have negative
coordinates and the whole canvas is HURGE. The A diagram still has
negative ruler coordinates but the canvas seems smaller.
Any further help/hints? BTW: with the compile 89.0 rev, I don't have
any cools stuff like the network objects etc on my tool bar palete...
Thanks for your help.
-Fred

Fred,
Sorry you haven't had much success - I think the path I have led you
along
is going to get a little hairy, but lets give it a go.
Please find attached a file containing depmod and py-compile which I am
guessing are part of automake 1.5. If you just put these in the dia
directory they should allow dia to compile; or download automake 1.5..
Note that you'll also need to look at the other message RE: Crash when
opening file which I sent to the list today.
As for unicode, just ensure you have linunicode and libunicode-devel
installed (they come on the RedHat installation CDs).
You may also need libxml-1.8.5 from ftp://xmlsoft.org/ if you don't
already
have it - just down load the rpm ( I had to force the install :-(
By the way, given that this is not a stable release we don't recommend
installing it - just run app/run_dia.sh
Let me know if you have any problems getting this to work.
Regards,
Rob.

OK, So I grabbed dia-CVS-20011015-0723.tar.gz (from the url you gave me) which I presume is 10/15's cvs snapshot, correct? When I tar xzvf'ed it. It unrolled everything and I noticed two dangling links: py-compile ->/usr/share/automake/py-compile and depcomp -> /usr/share/automake/depcomp The build didn't work because of the missing depcomp - no surprises there. I don't do alot of compiling on this box, just stuff like ALSA and gaim; but am I supposed to have these things? If so, where do I get them? Also, ./configure mentioned something about unicode support - which I prefer. Where do i get the needed libs for this.

I have made a couple of diagrams and I wish to print them. The first few drafts printed OK (directly printing to lpr). But after a few open/close operations on the dia files (you know, making some small edits after printing), the blue print guidelines dissappeared and printing no loger works (looks like I get a ps error from the printer). Ihave scalingset to 1x1 pages. It appears that if I start a brand new document, I get the printing guides back, and I think printing will be OK. (BTW: Ithought I couldcopy and paste the objects from one dia doc to another -that doesn'twork...). My Env is: RH 7.0; Xmian Gnome 1.2; dia 0.88.1 (Toshiba tecra 8100); . My printer is a lexmark something other that works fine from other apps (mozilla, AbiWord, gnumeric).Are you able to try the latest CVS version? If you can't access the CVS then download the latest snapshot from http://www.crans.org/~chepelov/dia/snapshots A lot has happened since 0.88.1 and I am confident this should allow you to print - in 0.88.1 some objects were getting erroneous bounding boxes and so lots of things got stuffed up. If this doesn't help, or if you are unable to get a CVS copy or snapshot to compile, please let us know. Thank you for trying dia!
