install ibus input method in tiny core
« on: October 19, 2016, 08:49:07 AM »
Hi I want to install ibus input method using source in tiny core but i have stuck as it is asking gnome-common and this package is not available for tiny core.
Is there any other input method available for tiny core for indian languages.

I just compiled ibus-chewing (Mostly used by Traditional Chinese speakers) a few days ago
Not sure about your language
In my case, I need to first compile libchewing, then ibus-chewing
You might need to find "libyourlanguage" and "ibus-yourlanguage" and compile them on your own ;)

For building enviroment:
tce-load -wil autoconf automake cmake compiletc

For libchewing:
Download source from github
tce-load all the dependencies required
(In most case, instructions and dependencies can be found in the file named "INSTALL")

cmake
make
sudo make install

If you want to create a package for the repo
