The GAIL library is a GTK+ module. This module is normally used with the atk-bridge GTK+ module from AT-SPI to allow an assistive technology, e.g., a screenreader, to query or drive the program. &lfssvn_built;20100803&lfssvn_built2; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &gail-md5sum; Download size: &gail-size; Estimated disk space required: &gail-buildsize; Estimated build time: &gail-time; GAIL Dependencies Required Optional User Notes: Installation of GAIL Install GAIL by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0) && make This package does not come with a test suite. Now, as the root user: make install && if [ $(pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0) != "/usr" ]; then ln -v -s $(pkg-config --variable=prefix \ ORBit-2.0)/lib/gtk-2.0/modules \ /usr/lib/gtk-2.0 fi Command Explanations if [ ... != "/usr" ]; then ...; fi: GTK+ will look for the GAIL modules in /usr/lib even if $GNOME_PREFIX is NOT /usr. This command creates a symbolic link to satisfy this requirement.
