Preliminary Debian packages at:
http://www.xs4all.nl/~pa4tu/tmp/xtlf_0.0+1.01beta-1_all.deb



I have done some small changes to the GUI (it looks o.k. now also under
Dapper) and killed some error messages.




I have tried to create a multi-user package on Debian. Changes needed:
- config included in the package, directory: /usr/share/xtlf/config
- scoring directory is in /usr/share/xtlf/scoring
- xtlf.pl, glade file and libraries installed in /usr/share/xtlf
- /usr/bin/xtlf is a script which copies /usr/share/xtlf/scoring to 
$(HOME)/xtlf it also copies /usr/share/xtlf/scoring to $(HOME)/.xtlf and calls 
/usr/share/xtlf/xtlf.pl

Changes needed in xtlf.pl:
Line added with: use lib $Bin;, otherwise it can't find tlf_lib.pm
I have used my $contestinfo = `cat /usr/share/xtlf/scoring/rules.pm`;
also: my $g = Gtk2::GladeXML-new(/usr/share/xtlf/xtlf-1.0.0.glade);

TODO:
See if we really need to copy the scoring directory to $HOME

Feedback welcome!




Joop, this is what I get using the .deb pkg.

This is on an IBM A20M laptop with Debian testing. I plan on using xTLF 
for RTTY contesting. I notice the GUI and windows as well as the overall 
performance to be jerky for lack of a better word. There is a 
noticeable lag before a window opens or a function executes. Am I 
missing a needed package ??

On Debian/Unstable I see:

gdk_drawable_get_depth (window)' failed at /usr/share/xtlf/xtlf.pl line 1589.

No, you don't. As explained by Rein in an earlier message, xtlf takes about 10 
seconds to start on his machine. I think this is mainly caused by the use if 
Perl. Perl being an interpreted language, it just isn't very fast.

I am using a 700 MHz AMD, xtlf takes 15 seconds to load...
