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 For the development edition (0.7.x)
10 check the <a href="devel.html#N1">development page</a>.</p>

12 <h2>Skencil (0.6.x stable series)</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>

92 Mandriva ships Skencil packages, at least you can get
93 them from their cooker and the mirrors.
94 At time of writing (January 2006) Mandriva only has 0.6.16 "skencil"
95 and the fonts are missconfigured. There is
96 a solution outlined in
97 <a href="http://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=20899"

182 <h3><a name="N2" id="N2">Python and Python Extensions</a></h3>
183 <p>The python interpreter is not included in the Skencil sources.
184 You have to download and install it separately. You need at least
185 version 1.5.1.</p>
186 <p>In addition to the interpreter itself, you need the Python
187 Imaging Library (PIL).</p>

197 <p>If you want to use the SVG import filter, you also need the
198 <a href="http://www.python.org/topics/xml/download.html">Python XML
199 package</a>. This package is optional, you don't need it for
200 anything other that the SVG import filter.</p>

209 <dd>
210 <p>Most recent Linux distributions include a suitable Python
211 interpreter but not the PIL. Some distributions split the Python
212 interpreter into several packages. You need to install the packages
213 that install the interpreter proper and the Tk interface Tkinter.
214 If you want to compile Skencil or the PIL yourself, you may also
215 have to install a 'python-devel' package.</p>
