http://projects.gnome.org/seahorse/ Looking for an RPM for Seahorse 2.24.0 for CentOS 5.3 (i386 arch) but not finding it. Is there an SRPM I can rebuild? Where? TIA!
Seahorse is Gnome app, and the latest version requires gtk-2.16.x ... CentOS-5.x contains gtk2-2.10.x so I would imagine the latest seahorse will not work with CentOS.
Karanbir does have a version compiled (seahorse-1.0.1-9) for centos-5 here:
I just rebuilt this rpm on my CentOS 5 box and it rebuilt just fine, Installed and seems to be working fine as well, as far as the security implications i could not attest to, but it is installed and working well here.
That version does build OK on my c5 as well.
I am not sure if that is the latest version that will work with CentOS-5 or if there are any security issues with that version.
Here is where you can find all the seahorse sources, so you can find the highest version that will compile on gtk-2.10.x and use Karanbir's SRPM as a template if a newer version is available that will work.
Looking at the sources and reading the INSTALL requirements from the tarballs, it would seem that the last version which would build where CentOS-5 meets all the build requires without a core package upgrade would be "seahorse-2.20.3". Any version higher than that has a requirement for a newer version of gnome-keyring than comes with CentOS-5.x.
There is a requirement for gpgme > 1.x which is not in CentOS but can be obtained from Dag's RPMForge (has version 1.1.8).
I did not build this, but it should build according to the INSTALL docs.
This SRPM will build on CentOS-5.x ... IF ... you install gpgme, gpgme-devel, and pth from RPMForge on the build machine (or make them available for mock if you build with that).
http://people.centos.org/hughesjr/seahorse/
(version is seahorse-2.20.3-3.src.rpm )
I have no idea if it works, but it is indeed the latest version from the upstream sources which will build with the gnome-keyring version that ships with CentOS-5.
If you wait to build on CentOS-5.4 (or if you are on the QA team) then you do not need pth from RPMForge as that is added to RHEL-5.4.
Thanks, Johnny Hughes
