There's an app for exactly what you are looking for, florian: flphoto

Thanks a lot curaga! I will try flPhoto out. If I like it then I'll make a MyDSL extension out of it whenever I manage to get some free time.

Re: Manual .unc
1. To be able to extract .deb's, get:
http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub....pkg.dsl
2. Make the dir where you want to extract the contents:

Code Sample

mkdir whatever

3. Extract contents of .deb into 'whatever':

Code Sample

dpkg-deb --extract picasa.deb whatever

4. Generate the .unc:

Code Sample

mkisofs -R -hide-rr-moved -cache-inodes -pad whatever | create_compressed_fs - 65536 > picasa.unc

5. Load the new .unc:

Code Sample

mydsl-load picasa.unc
OR
Desktop Menu -> Apps -> Tools -> myDSL Extension Browser -> Load Local

I did a debina installation to hard drive of DSL and then installed picasa using dpkg -i, it seems to be working ok now.
i wanted to try flphoto, if its light weight, i'll like that better. but i do not know how to intsall it

how do i 'compile from souce'? or is it 'make' please tell me the commands to type
thanks

flphoto looks cool while being lightweight. I tried to compile it on my XUbuntu box on which I had check I had the proper libs with similar version than in DSL.

The configure autoconf script reported everything ok. But when i do 'make', then I ran into a compile issue that flphoto uses a function in libjpeg with parameters that doesn't match the function's signature as defined in libjpeg.

curaga (or others): any luck in compling flphoto?
