I just went to try out the new documancer port not even realising that it was
Python based. Looks like it could be useful. I used to use the chm version of
the python docs on windows all the time... indexed text search is handy. The
ability to add other "books" (like postgresql docs) makes this look even
handier.
But... the wxMozilla port it depends on doesn't seem to work for me (on
5.2-RELEASE). Anyone else tried it?
The problem is that wxPython can't find libxpcom.so. libxpcom.so comes with
mozilla and firebird and thunderbird. I seem to have three copies of it on my
system (as i have all three ports installed). None are in my LD_LIBRARY_PATH
path.
>>> from wxPython import mozilla
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.3/site-packages/wxPython/mozilla.py", line 2,
in ?
import mozillac
ImportError: Shared object "libxpcom.so" not found
>>>
But even if i manually add /usr/X11R6/lib/mozilla/ to my library path,
wxMozilla still fails; though the error is different...
>>> from wxPython import mozilla
