no, else i would have never directed you there. i said "outdated" because i built it ~4-5 months ago for a previous release, and thus it probably must be rebuilt for latest Ubuntu. as i run Arch, that [undocumented] PPA exists purely to help kickstart others... i'm not much interested in [personally] keeping it up2date longterm (it's purpose was to test the GObject bindings). ultimately, the patch to Webkit is relatively small, and has not changed for a long time, see: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=77835 ...for the story's extended version. > I have pyjs 0.7 installed through synaptic. much MUCH too old; please use latest HEAD, and pip/PyPI in the future, once available. > I find this business of > redirecting to instructions on multiple sites > that redirect to other instructions elsewhere, and then again > likewise--well, it is very confusing...perhaps not for > you because you know (and built) the landscape. Really, there has to be a > better way. well i'm just once of many architects; the instructions are not really incorrect per se -- the process was never clean cut, completed, refined, or even functional at times. once the GObject stuff lands i'll update various instructions accordingly. TBH, building Webkit right out the gate is not going to be a great experience... even for experiences developers/users. i suggest pulling the latest development tree from Github, and exploring the JS side of things -- eg the actual translator toolchain: pyjsbuild, et al -- before delving into the native/realtime bindings to webkit/firefox/trident. the latter is a wonderful tool, with much potential, but stability/maintenantce issue keep it restricted to little more than a fantastic development/debug tool (vs. a code-rebuild-test loop when using Python => JS translation). -- C Anthony -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Pyjs.org Users" group.
