%general-entities; ]> $LastChangedBy$ $Date$ Evince-&evince-version; Evince Introduction to Evince The Evince package contains a document viewer for multiple document formats. It currently supports PDF, Postscript, DjVu, TIFF and DVI. This is useful for viewing documents of various types using one simple application instead of the multiple document viewers that once existed on the GNOME Desktop. &lfs70_checked; Package Information Download (HTTP): Download (FTP): Download MD5 sum: &evince-md5sum; Download size: &evince-size; Estimated disk space required: &evince-buildsize; Estimated build time: &evince-time; Evince Dependencies Required , , , and Required (Runtime) Optional , , , , (required to build the DVI viewer), (required to build the Nautilus plugin), (required for PDF support and must be built with GTK+ support), libspectre (required for Postscript ability from Evince), DjVuLibre (required for DjVu graphics from Evince), and t1lib (required for Type1 font support in the DVI viewer) User Notes: Installation of Evince Install Evince by running the following commands: ./configure --prefix=$GNOME_PREFIX \ --libexecdir=$GNOME_PREFIX/lib/evince \ --without-keyring \ --disable-nautilus \ --disable-pdf \ --enable-introspection && make The test suite for this package requires a functional dogtail installation. Requirements and download information can be found at . The test suite is invoked by issuing make check. Now, as the root user: make install Command Explanations --libexecdir=$GNOME_PREFIX/lib/evince: This parameter is used so that the Evince internal support programs are installed in the preferred location of $GNOME_PREFIX/lib/evince instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/libexec. --without-keyring: This parameter disables the use of gnome-keyring. Remove parameter if gnome-keyring is installed. --disable-nautilus: This parameter disables the Nautilus Plugin. Remove parameter if Nautilus is installed. --disable-pdf: This parameter disables the PDF Backend. Remove parameter if Poppler is installed. --enable-introspection: by default, the gobject-introspection support is turned off, even though that package is an expected component of a GNOME system. The introspection support is, however, required if you intend to build , so it is enabled here. Most BLFS users can probably omit it and find local files using e.g. find -name '*.pdf'. : Use this parameter if you have the teTeX or TeX Live package installed and you wish to build support to view DVI files. : Use this parameter if you have the t1lib package installed and you wish to build support for Type1 fonts in the DVI viewer. : This switch prevents the static libraries being installed.
