Some time back I had created some "web photo albums" with Booh, which I
burned to CDs for a family reunion. My brother wanted to do another
disk, and I was looking for what to use this time (OK, he's on Windows
XP, so the tool he'd use wouldn't be for this forum). In case I
couldn't find something he could use, I figured I'd hunt down what I had
used before.
Once I tracked down and installed Booh, however, I found it didn't work
with Ruby 1.9, and was looking for Ruby 1.8 files. Mint14 doesn't have
an installable version of Ruby 1.8 (it lists a package, but the repos
are missing a lot of the pieces), and the source doesn't compile under
Ruby 1.9. So I need to find something that works *like* Booh, but is
currently under development/maintenance (the last release was from July
2010). That means the resultant photo album can be viewed offline (from
CD), and needs to have free-form text for each photo (for the
information & names on the backs of the photographs), and ideally should
link to the original full-size scans on the CD.
