When do we have the Fremantle [optified] version?

--denis

I'm fairly sure karatchov has no interest importing this for fremantle.

I'm sure someone else might get around to it eventually.

I have contacted Karatchov and he told me that he didn't have the time nor a N900 to port it to. So if anyone is interested, I for one would be grateful to have a fremantle version

Unless someone sends me an N900 I dont have any intention to port it to fremantle, although I'm sure it wont take much time.

The code is freely available at github but it's based on v4.1, and the 5.1 is already released.

I'm willing to help anyone who may want to build it for fremantle.
And dont forget that I has almost zero linux experience when I decided to build a maemo4 version.

I have installed your 4.1 version
And although I can't enter the menu (Some Qt incompatibilities) I can open a 500 Mb chm file and browse properly through it. Even searching works.
Rellay impressive work Karatchov.

I only have some basic programming skills, and mostly Symbian/Psion OPL, so I unfortunately can't port your code to the N900.

No, no no no no, No skills, You need to thank the original authors, and the creator of chmlib, I just made some minor changes, nothing really impressive.
Prior to that, I had only some Delphi and very basic c++ experience, but that didnt stop me.

I'd say: go ahead, get the sdk

hi
i got the port ready. it is only using libchmfile and libchm from kchmreader. ui is totally new and made to look 'hildon' like. i'll package it up and publish it this weekend.

Great !
Btw, libchm is nothing more than CHM lib. I didnt know how to correctly build and manage external dependencies, so I made its source a part of the project.

I got the package ready, whats the best way to host it ?
I had to follow similar path to yours and include libchm directly into source, as I could not find the package for it build for arm.

If you've got most of it ready, why not try extras-devel?
