Hi all, this may sound a very basic request, but I've just had to
completely reinstallmandrake 8.1 after trying to get a stable install of
abiword.
The distro version .0.9.3 in mandrake is unstable, load a large file,
and it crashes.
I tried both the rpms from mdk and of yor site and cause hellish chaos
with gnome.
I also tried using the tarball, but failed to compile with libg errors.
So starting again from scratch, attempted to install from the rpm
(gnome) off the abi site,
install failed due to abiword fonts missing....now installed
and expat, and libgal
where is a safe source for the required packages ?.
rather than duplicate the same problems as before, a little help would
be very appreciated.
TIA
BG
Richard
