I don't have a Fedora system, but assuming there is not a Fedora PPA, it should be easy to adapt the Debian/Ubuntu instructions. You just need to figure out the analog of
sudo apt-get install git python-appindicator python-xdg python-pexpect python-gconf python-gtk2 python-glade2 libxxf86vm1
on Fedora, using dnf
or whatever the package manager is these days. The rest of the instructions will be the same / are independent of your Linux distribution.
Once you figure out how to install the dependencies on Fedora, it would be helpful if you submitted a PR on the README, or commented here explaining what you did.
Indeed, the installation procedure is quite the same. I could submit a PR, but I have two problems now:
1) python download-xflux.py
does not work for me:
$ python download-xflux.py
Downloading 64-bit xflux ...
Extracting /tmp/xflux.tgz ...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "download-xflux.py", line 34, in <module>
download_xflux()
File "download-xflux.py", line 29, in download_xflux
tar = tarfile.open(tarchive)
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/tarfile.py", line 1680, in open
raise ReadError("file could not be opened successfully")
tarfile.ReadError: file could not be opened successfully
The downloaded file '/tmp/xflux.tgz' is in fact a html page:
Request Error (invalid_request)

Your request could not be processed. Request could not be handled
This could be caused by a misconfiguration, or possibly a malformed request.
For assistance, contact your network support team.
2) I am experiencing the common issue https://github.com/xflux-gui/xflux-gui/issues/27:
Sorry, we only support 8 and 10-bit displays right now.
So I could submit a PR, but without the python download-xflux.py
stage.

I'm not entirely sure if my last commit cd07736 for the download-xflux.py
caused your 1. issue but for now, you can try the old code here (using your system wget
and tar
instead of Python library utils).
or just run below code to do the same from inside of fluxgui
cloned repository:
wget -c https://justgetflux.com/linux/xflux64.tgz && tar -xzf xflux64.tgz; rm -f xflux64.tgz
@faraco the old version of download-xflux.py
works well for me, so the commit https://github.com/xflux-gui/fluxgui/commit/cd0773605c8b91527c039945481856645463c064 can be the cause of my problem. I have submitted a separate issue for that: https://github.com/xflux-gui/fluxgui/issues/97
This was just fixed by PR #98.
I cannot find any installation instructions for Fedora OS. Could you add them?
