Hello, AbiWord's RedHat 8.0 RPMS compiled by me are at Savannah: http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/abiword/1.1.3/redhat/8.0/ This is a more complete addendum: AbiWord requires the fribidi package. RedHat doesn't distribute fribidi, so you may have to download and instal= l it. You need: - libfribidi0-0.10.4-0 <--- to run abiword - libfribidi0-devel-0.10.4-0 <--- to compile abiword You can download these rpms from here: SHA1 sum check: c014dbc632e3dd6f2f1d02d4e9181532abc27cef libfribidi0-0.10.4-0.i386.rpm 017d90115eabe64ba9ca053b4981c7fefe7b47fa libfribidi0-0.10.4-0.i686.rpm 844cc62516e27b1bff0e8bc0b18d0c9e96600058 libfribidi0-devel-0.10.4-0.i386.r= pm ef0de0163f278d6bdc810bbe0b8f79fcbaf8b483 libfribidi0-devel-0.10.4-0.i686.r= pm bdf97622f2d3c571361739ee4452980d6712f8a3 fribidi-0.10.4-0.src.rpm MD5 sum check: 7cf46309e3af4aa2a9c50c4ffea02607 libfribidi0-0.10.4-0.i386.rpm 3df4cb1dc2ea4e3011afdcb1c037f038 libfribidi0-0.10.4-0.i686.rpm 79cefe20d8a32830f0524d929166f5a2 libfribidi0-devel-0.10.4-0.i386.rpm bc52b0a96756aa3f916ca855e8b2c8db libfribidi0-devel-0.10.4-0.i686.rpm da55519eb5e01497c603a3d8d33cb178 fribidi-0.10.4-0.src.rpm ABOUT These rpms are built against libraries contained in RedHat's GNU/Linux 8.0 CDs. This means support for GTK+2 2.0.x and font antialiasing. There's little likelihood that it may work on older RedHat releases unles= s you recompile the source rpm with: rpm --rebuild abiword-1.1.3-1.src.rpm PLUGINS The plugins are now collected in two packages: - extra import/export - extra tools In future releases, plugins that won't build with default RedHat packages will be here, but you may need to install 3rd party packages to run them or to build them. REQUIRED: You should just need to grab one and only abiword-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm or abiword-1.1.3-1.i686.rpm But these will give extra flavours to the juice: abiword-clipart (ooo pictures!) abiword-plugins-impexp (extra document import/export plugins) abiword-plugins-tools (extra plugins providing some tools) abiword-fonts (older set of fonts, not really needed with this b= uild) abiword-embeddable (I don't think this really works again, your choic= e) EXTRA SOURCE Get the src.rpm in the SRPMS dir.

You can do that with rpm --checksig file.rpm (although it may complain abou= t missing gpg keys) or sha1sum file.rpm and compare with the following list: 8e762557fa3d0ae514d727801f06decb47475bd6 abiword-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm b166b628e8b4ae590f2b562f65ed8a9533503e7d abiword-clipart-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm 0e1948ecb8e98823cc3546cf8aba7c9da8ce7eb5 abiword-embeddable-1.1.3-1.i386.r= pm 73c0d4207fd2b25f339d4f29a531bae98a3b117e abiword-fonts-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm d4251f59fec5c4a35d681a79c73d52fac7ed759f abiword-plugins-impexp-1.1.3-1.i3= 86.rpm d540781a172a2cb503d71dfbb16bd1297ff7b94f abiword-plugins-tools-1.1.3-1.i38= 6.rpm f13d0f56d4c7df1f60e808a13fe9a203ee9caec1 abiword-1.1.3-1.i686.rpm b8eca9ad1be12ed66e2f5155ebb04784a15fec51 abiword-clipart-1.1.3-1.i686.rpm 78643bc9efa9660a2e5d1b1e37b0fd77f1cdb283 abiword-embeddable-1.1.3-1.i686.r= pm 88ba465c772e50155a648fdeea1e9053cc0d80a5 abiword-fonts-1.1.3-1.i686.rpm 96e3267ad6d1c9332c426c3f1b889d711732c7a2 abiword-plugins-impexp-1.1.3-1.i6= 86.rpm b8c76e2729700669bbbfd5b2483735367b58d711 abiword-plugins-tools-1.1.3-1.i68= 6.rpm c33d8dab5e1b46713060c2609472626396eb10ea abiword-1.1.3-1.src.rpm Or md5sum file.rpm and compare with the following list: d239c17e293e3b350f4a55281e692463 abiword-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm d97824c82fcf36054833d99667ddd6ba abiword-clipart-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm 5233f08b386b99ee1c8a0708e4a951c3 abiword-embeddable-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm b1081da49e3486782482d1e46bdc903e abiword-fonts-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm b9964ca5c889673d750b6628f10de8e2 abiword-plugins-impexp-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm fe188645b7dcf3c94fe9843ae2f650d0 abiword-plugins-tools-1.1.3-1.i386.rpm 0cdab6122efa7f10d1620a854dfa850a abiword-1.1.3-1.i686.rpm 5277f7ebc492981e0c63b3d076321cf5 abiword-clipart-1.1.3-1.i686.rpm b30aa7cd6c0640ca81ed49bd85e12d66 abiword-embeddable-1.1.3-1.i686.rpm 147173097a2bda6af18a79a47bce6fe3 abiword-fonts-1.1.3-1.i686.rpm 5cafc517103c3a423d78a9ac1506386b abiword-plugins-impexp-1.1.3-1.i686.rpm ff1b65673571792676a921e3ec298f22 abiword-plugins-tools-1.1.3-1.i686.rpm 0fa38c46efb841d75d6328216e4e3cc2 abiword-1.1.3-1.src.rpm -- + No matter how much you do, you never do enough -- unknown + Whatever you do will be insignificant, | but it is very important that you do it -- Gandhi + So let's do it...?
