Since I was having trouble with SuSE 9.1--it no longer seems like a gEDA
supported distro--I made CDROM's for SuSE 9.3 and formatted the hard disk of
my machine. After installing the OS and getting all of the updates, I went
back to installing gEDA again. The summary is that I got everything but
gspiceui to compile and install; the details are below.
The first problem I had is that I could not get the 20050828 install to run.
I was able to run the 20050825 install--I probably ran it ten times--but the
828 install gave me this error:
> /media/CDROM/installer --log
I/O error : Input/output error

state
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "installer.py", line 401, in __init__
self.wTree = gtk.glade.XML (gladefile,windowname) # This creates the
window tree.
RuntimeError: could not create GladeXML object
With the 825 install running I found the same things others did that the first
couple of dialogs have scrollbars, but the rest of them do not and so there
was a lot of text I could not read, but I could figure out what I needed to
do based on the log window.
Because I ran the installer many times, I must say that it would be nice to
have a way to restart or to skip the parts that were successfully completed,
because it takes a lot of time to work through the gaf install every time.
For anyone starting with a clean green SuSE 9.3 distro, I needed to install
gcc, ncurses-devel, termcap, glade, flex, bison and libxml2-devel before the
825 install would run to completion.
I still had a gspiceui error that looks like I am missing some more header
files. Does anyone have any idea what package I might be missing? The error
I see is:

Good job, Stuart.
