I thought about this. There are two problems: 1 Python for dia documentation is sparse. Where do I install scripts? How do I execute them from within Dia? What would be a good script to start off with? 2 Would this work on Debian stable with Dia 0.97.1? I compiled 0.97.2 from source but the confuration reported no Python support Configuration: Source code location: . Compiler: gcc Gnome support: no Python support: no Libart support (PNG export): yes Cairo support (PNG, PDF, print): yes Dia Python bindings with SWIG no WMF plug-in with libEMF: no html doc: no pdf and ps doc: no I tried to build the Debian packages but the compilation fails at some point and the maintainers have not replied yet (I doubt they ever will) I installed the Ubuntu packages from the download site but there is a naming problem with libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0, and libpython2.7 is not available on Debian stable As a result, I do not have Python with my Dia Thanks _______________________________________________ dia-list mailing list dia-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list FAQ at http://live.gnome.org/Dia/Faq Main page at http://live.gnome.org/Dia
