tyme Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 I've built an RPM of the Microsoft TrueType core fonts for Mandrake 10.0 Official Edition. It may work in other versions of Mandrake, but I make no promises! Please note that due to the inclusion of the Tahoma font you have to agree with the IE EULA and must also have a valid MS Window License. I won't come after you, but I take no responsibility for those who do not follow the rules If anyone has a problem with this, I may consider building one without the Tahoma font. I don't think I'll have to though ;) either way, here's the RPM thanks to Nazgulled who asked the question which eventually lead to me building this RPM. Enjoy! p.s.-if you have any issues just post here. Also, if you try them out in a version of mandrake other than 10.0 OE and they work let me know.

Ixthusdan Posted May 10, 2004 Report Share Posted May 10, 2004 Thanks! Although I imported all of my fonts, I'm going to try this out. I of course adhere to all law, including sending my first born to Redmond for ritual sacrifice. She's in the mail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyme Posted May 11, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 Nice job tyme thanks :) i'm going to try to start building RPM's for mandrake OE. I'm considering delving into trying to build GNOME 2.6 (OE runs 2.4, but CE has 2.6), but that could be more work than it's worth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grendal Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 Thanks for the rpm tyme. I haven't been able to figure out how to import the windows fonts on 10oe I sure it's just operator error. So when will you be bringing those other rpms?? Should we get ready to update our urpmi sources?? :D Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should we get ready to update our urpmi sources?? :D making a urpmi source may be a little more than i'm interested in doing, but we'll see how it goes B) at the moment i want to try and figure out this error i keep getting when trying to build an rpm for gaim-0.77 who knows what's next hehe.

Qchem Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 I can perhaps give you a hand in producing the specfiles for gnome 2.6 if you have the build environment :D You know where to find me if you want my help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
