Hi,
This message is intended for people who are running bleeding edge
LON-CAPA on a development machine/VM.
/home/httpd/lib/perl/LONCAPA/Checksumming.pm 1.1 (and later)
requires perl-Digest-SHA1 (except Ubuntu 12.04, which requires
perl-Digest-SHA).
/home/httpd/lib/perl/Apache/lonplot.pm 1.159 (and later) requires
gnuplot 4.4 (or newer) -- see: bug 2886.
/home/httpd/lib/perl/Apache/inputtags.pm 1.3 (and later)
/home/httpd/lib/perl/Apache/lonhtmlcommon.pm 1.324 (and later)
utilize the jQuery javascript file: query.spellchecker.js, and require
aspell dictionaries for the following 'supported' languages:
'en','de','he','es','fr','pt','tr' -- see: bug 838.
For those distros for which LON-CAPA is supported, and for which the
gnuplot version available from the standard repos is 4.2 or older, a
gnuplot 4.4 package has been built.
Similarly, aspell language packages have been built for any of the
seven languages listed, for which the appropriate aspell-<lang>
rpm/deb is not available from a distro's standard repos.
Lastly, ImageMagick and ImageMagick-perl rpms have been built for any
supported distros for which the version in the standard repo is 6.2 or
older -- see bug 6652.
These packages, and LONCAPA-prerequisites 1-23, which advertises the
dependency on perl-Digest-SHA1, and the >= 4.4 version requirement for
gnuplot, have been deployed in the LON-CAPA testing repos found at:
http://install.loncapa.org/msu/testing/
For information about using the testing repos with a development VM or
server see:
http://mail.lon-capa.org/pipermail/lon-capa-dev/2007-November/001852.html
LONCAPA-prerequisites-1.23 and any dependencies will be moved to the
LON-CAPA production repos in the next day or so, in readiness for the
release of LON-CAPA 2.11.0
Let me know if you have any questions.
