Hi all,
I'm sorry for delay, I should've been posted something here as soon as I uploaded packages into repo.
First of all thank you for your positive feedback. I didn't expect that people are so eager to help. Thank you!
Now to business:
For testers/users I'd really appreciate if you would post bugs/feature requests to the project:
https://garage.maemo.org/projects/evince/
If you do this your findings will not be forgotten at least.
I also would like to see which formats are supported and which are not and if there is a need in them. Me personally have checked PDF, Djvu and cbr. If you check the others and report found issues to bug/feature request tracker it would be really great. You can find list of potentially supported formats here:
http://live.gnome.org/Evince/SupportedDocumentFormats
Answers for your questions:
debernardis:
It's in extras-devel. You can find one-click install here:
http://evince.garage.maemo.org/evince-devel.install
teree: A bit of explanations: This is development version, even more this is first working build. It means that evince garage team is still working on it.
Unsupported hw keys is a known bug:
https://garage.maemo.org/tracker/ind...=547&atid=2062
, and I hope it will be fixed soon. If you have suggestions on this feel free to comment in the bug (or here).
gerbick: I put all dependencies (software which evince depends on) into the same repository. unrar was in this list. What I'm thinking about is to may be put ghostscript there for postsctirpt support. Hovewer, I'm not sure postscript is needed for average tablet user.
Status and plans:
Status: For the first development build it's quite ok, main file formats are supported and build is useable.
Plans:
Main goal for now is to make & release stable version as soon as possible, so any suggestions what should be in there are welcome.
I think that at least all 3 already reported bugs: 1972, 1973 and 1974 should be fixed before releasing evince to the public (remember this is first development build
). Thank you Dan and Dustin for reporting them.
