4     <strong>The Skencil Project is looking for packaging help.</strong>
5     We hope to provide current binary packages for many systems
6     from this page or point people to the packages for their distribution.

9     Unstable binaries might be available from the
10 jpaalasm 606 <a href="devel.html#N1">development page</a>.</p>

12 jpaalasm 606 <h2>Skencil</h2>
13     <p>You can download Skencil either in source form or as binaries.
14     Please note that Skencil needs some <strong>additional
15     software</strong> to run, some of which is probably not yet
16     installed on your system. See <a href="#N2">below</a> for more
17     information.</p>

85     Mandriva ships Skencil packages, at least you can get
86     them from their cooker and the mirrors.
87     At time of writing (January 2006) Mandriva only has 0.6.16 "skencil"
88     and the font configuration might not be correct. Please
89     file a bug with Mandriva if you are interested in Skencil packages
90     and using this distribution.

170     <p>The python interpreter is not included in the Skencil sources.
171     You have to download and install it separately. You need at least
172     version 1.5.1.</p>
173     <p>In addition to the interpreter itself, you need the Python
174     Imaging Library (PIL).</p>

197     <p>Most recent Linux distributions include a suitable Python
198     interpreter but not the PIL. Some distributions split the Python
199     interpreter into several packages. You need to install the packages
200     that install the interpreter proper and the Tk interface Tkinter.
201     If you want to compile Skencil or the PIL yourself, you may also
202     have to install a 'python-devel' package.</p>
