gazpacho and kiwi
xunhuazhao opened this issue · comments
Hi,
The apt-get way seems not not working to install gazpacho and kiwi (?), so I install them manually after downloading from the following sites (I put it here for other's info):
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gazpacho/0.7.2-2ubuntu1
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kiwi/1.9.22-2
The installation finished normally.
However, when I tried to use "kmos edit XXXX.xml", it told me "EnvironmentError: path /usr/share/gazpacho/pixmaps must be a directory"
Then I found pixmaps directory is actually available via a different path: /usr/local/share/gazpacho/.
It looks like that I have to tell kmos the new address of gazpacho. It would be great if someone can tell me how to do this? Thank you very much.
When you say 'apt-get way', have you tried installing it by directly downloading one of the old Debian packages[1]. And then install them with 'sudo dpkg -i '. Otherwise if you have already managed to install it from source, you could also trying fixing the /usr/local/share installation by setting soft links from where your python runtime expects it, to where it actually is, e.g.
ln -s /usr/local/share/gazpacho/pixmaps /usr/share/gazpacho/pixmaps
However this may end up setting many soft links depending how the gazpacho internals work. And you have to do it again on every installation. This is why I was hoping the 'sudo dpkg -i ...' way would still work.

Thanks for the previous suggestions.
I tried to download and install the package from the above link and finally I saw the nice panel with all the parameters and processes shown there. However, there seems to be some last problem. The error message is:"
...
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/kmos/utils/init.py", line 494, in col_str2tuple
color = gtk.gdk.Color(hex_string)
ValueError: unable to parse colour specification".
Thxs once again.
I need more details (step 1. ... 2. ... 3 ...) how to reproduce this behavior to tell you what is going wrong.
