I have created RPMS for pstoedit. Just what you always wanted! Finally,
you can convert ps or pdf graphics to powerpoint to give to your pointy
headed boss!
pstoedit needs libEMF and plotutils. I have made RPMS for all 3.
Now, what exactly do I need to do to submit? Where to upload?
I hope I did not rain on your parade, but I have submitted pstoedit in the
Fedora QA bugzilla. This is a great app, which can work as a plug-in to
gsview 4.x. See:
https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=1440
libEMF is busted building on Fedora-1 (properly) , even with gcc patches
poached from other distros. Needs some massaging and it is an abandoned
project AFAICT. I would be curious to see if it can be made to work properly
on FC-1 and FC-2..
I have not finished the plotutils package yet, so submitting this to QA would
be welcome.
