The RPM is being built on my system right now, but due to how it builds,
it might be better to actually build from the source RPM if you're using
anything other than an i686 (since it installs to an i686-pc-linux-gnu
directory regardless of what RPM I make, and I'm not sure if this will
"break" on an i586 or not). I'll be uploading the RPM (and wxGTK which is
also required) to Mandrake soon for the contribs, but if you're in a
hurry, you can grab them from:
ftp.freezer-burn.org/pub/custom/wxGTK and /pub/custom/mahogany
Or from the website at www.freezer-burn.org/rpm.php3. wxGTK is there
right now, mahogany will be there in 10-20 minutes as I'm just finishing
the build for it. There is one problem with it, and that's the Python
support. They didn't compile the Python add-on modules themselves and
every attempt I've made to do so doesn't work, so until they fix the
distribution source, the Python support won't work. If someone knows an
exact way to fix this, I'd love to know it.
