It looks like I am pushing the boundaries a bit here. I am trying to build binary x86_64 rpms from the source rpms available in the Mandrake contrib area for sword 1.5.7a, gnomesword 2.1.1, and bibletime 1.4.1-3.
After jumping through a few hoops I managed to produce a sword rpm, although I had to install it with "--nodeps".
The gnomesword spec file and resultant Makefiles all have specific library version requirements - eg. I get
No package 'libgtkhtml-3.0' found
but have lib64gtkhtml-3.1_11 installed (along with the "devel" package). I assume this should work.
This isn't the only such package.
For Bibletime, I had to add "/usr/lib64", as a directory in which to search for libsword, to the main configure file, and re-create the tar.bz2 file. After that bibletime was fine.
I imagine that by playing around with the gnomesword sources I could make it work, but I would like to do it in a "nice" way, not a fudge. Any recommendations?
Brian.
