Brian supplied the pdf from the last build, and I've uploaded that (along with some new fyi OMAR pdfs) to http://download.osgeo.org/livedvd/data/ossim/docs/pdfs/ and uploaded the install script to match the new home of the white paper pdf. those pdfs should really be in http://download.osgeo.org/ossim/docs/pdfs/ but I'll let the ossim -devs take care of that. in looking at the ossim-1.8.6 install script I noticed a few other things, fixed some of them, and commented on the rest: #FIXME: Please do not use "chmod 777". Add to the "users" group and chmod g+w instead. #apt-get --force was used. Is there a bloody good reason for needing that? It could break the disc. #FIXME: do not checkout directly to $USER_HOME. Use "svn export" to /usr/local/share/data/ instead, or svn co to /tmp/build_ossim/ then copy dir to /usr/local/share/data/ and symlink into $HOME as needed. #FIXME: Do not use chmod 777. see above. #FIXME: python install fails. does the python-sphinx package need to be installed first? #FIXME: wget -N is not compatible with -O. (no-op) #FIXME: Another set of "Do not use chmod 777". and why both install_ossim.sh (ver 1.8.3, unused) and install_ossim-1.8.6.sh (used)? can we get rid of the old one and rename the new one? 'svn co' directly into $USER_HOME/ is the worst of those problems (wastes disc and RAM space). thanks, Hamish ps- Massimo (or any other Italiano) if you have a couple minutes could you have a look at the Italian main index.html page translation? right now it doesn't exist which totally breaks that locale. see http://adhoc.osgeo.osuosl.org/livedvd/docs/ thanks! _______________________________________________ Live-demo mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/live-demo http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc
