where can I download xnview

Hi folks,

archlinux x86_64  2007 08-2

I want to read .wbz file.  But I can't find xnview on repo.  Please advise which repo I have to add.  OR is there equivalent arch package of xnview on repo?  TIA

There is a package in AUR but only for i686: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=861

I think xnview is only distributed as a binary so you may be out of luck on x86_64....

Re: where can I download xnview

also xnview STILL is not updated to use qt.. its author wanted to make this step months ago...

*edit* at least an alpha is now available: http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?t=14246

I read here that you can rename them to jpg and open at least some of them:

Re: where can I download xnview

Hi folks,

Thanks for your advice.

Having tried couple days unable to install the packages download.  They are;

XnView-x86-unknown-linux2.x-static.tgz
XnViewMP-linux.tgz

I also download the converter :- kUWC-1.0-3.tar.bz2

and fail to install it.

#  python setup.py install

running install
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 62, in <module>

    self.install_scripts = ask_kde_config('--install exe --expandvars').strip()
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'strip'

Also tried rename the image file as .jpg but unable to open it.

This is not my first time running .wbz file.  I never encountered so much problem before.
