! Build
|
| On CentOS, git needed to be upgraded to get super modules. The FC13 git-1.7 rpm worked (rpm -ivh --nomd5). One small git.spec tweak was removing the conditional "--vendor" around desktop-file-install, so the line looked just like: "desktop-file-install --vendor fedora --dir=%{buildroot}%{_datadir}/applications %{SOURCE4}" CentOS 5.4+ broke things so the rpm would not build - had to [http://tonkersten.com/archives/2009/11/20/its_broken_again/index.html|edit docbook dtd definition] to get a Fedora rpm to build properly. Replace "4.5" with "4.2" in /etc/asciidoc/docbook.conf
