%general-entities; ]> $LastChangedBy$ $Date$ GMime The GMime package contains a set of utilities for parsing and creating messages using the Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension (MIME) as defined by the applicable RFCs. See the GMime web site for the RFCs resourced. This is useful as it provides an API which adheres to the MIME specification as closely as possible while also providing programmers with an extremely easy to use interface to the API functions. &lfs70_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &gmime-md5sum; Download size: &gmime-size; Estimated disk space required: &gmime-buildsize; Estimated build time: &gmime-time; GMime Dependencies Required Optional , and Gtk# (requires Mono) User Notes: Install GMime by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-static && make If you have installed and you wish to generate the API tutorials, issue the following commands: pushd docs/tutorial && docbook2html --nochunks gmime-tut.sgml && docbook2pdf gmime-tut.sgml && docbook2ps gmime-tut.sgml && docbook2txt gmime-tut.sgml && popd To test the results, issue: make check.
