Re: [tlug] Suse 8.0 & gnome updates



For those who are interested in the solution, those not using mutt :-) , 
here is how I did:
1) get a RedHat galeon 1.2.5 rpm at:
    
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=6999&release_id=93326
2) extract the missing components:
    rpm2cpio  galeon-1.2.5-1.i386.rpm | cpio -idv '*libgaleo*'
3) copy the 2 files in /opt/gnome/lib/galeon/components/

I know, it is dirty, but it works. I don't understand why these 
components are not
in the Suse package :-(
