Re: need an off-line build dep for orca under ubuntu, is it possible?
krishnakant Mane writes (need an off-line build dep for orca under ubuntu, is it possible?): hello, in context to the questions asked by mohomad and the answers, I have a pritty streight forward question. I keep on going to schools in some rural areas of India. and for the blind people out there, ubuntu with orca seams to me as the best solution. can some one tell me if I can do an off-line (without internet ) build and configuration of orca under feisty? Just build a debian binary package of the latest svn revision of orca before you go and you can simply install it offline. No need to build it from scratch on every machine. Use the current package in Ubuntu as a basis for your package. For information on building Debian packages: http://www.debian.org/doc/maint-guide/ It seems that several people would be interested in such an orca package that tracks svn trunk, so you might consider making it available publicly.

No need to build it from scratch on every machine. Use the current package in Ubuntu as a basis for your package. I did not get what you are trying to suggest. I know that orca source can be carried any where. what I am worried is how to simulate the apt-get build-dep gnome-orca without the internet connection? I figured out that on my machine which is indeed connected, the build-dep command downloaded a lot of things. another problem I find is about apt-get install gnome-common. how do I work this out? I will be nice to build a .deb package for orca but how to get these dependent components off-line on a cd? can it be so that a deb package is built with all the dependencies intacked including gnome-common and the dependencies downloaded with build-dep? regards. -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list Ubuntu-accessibility@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
