# Obsolete

Installing ldtp on Red Hat 3.4.3-9.EL4 (using VMWare) 

Assumption: A linux user (say harsha) The symbol $ is run as user in the terminal The symbol # is run as root in the terminal 

1. Praveen A (J4V4M4N) checked out the entire ldtp project(s) for me (Thank you buddy) 

2. I compiled the ldtp project (not pyldtp) 

         * Procedure: $ cd ~harsha/ldtp $./autogen.sh $ ./configure # make     # make install #cd python # ./setup.py build # ./setup.py install  
3. I discoverd i had python: 

         * Python 2.3.4 (#1, Feb  2 2005, 11:44:49) [GCC 3.4.3 20041212 (Red Hat 3.4.3-9.EL4)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.  
4. I installed python2.4 rpms (core and devel) 

5. I set the <logfile>/home/harsha/EXAMPLES/gedit/gedit-log.xml</logfile> values in gedit-execution.xml 

6. Then I tried executing gedit-execution.xml 

7. I got a log message saying python imaging library (PIL) is not installed 

8. I downloaded PIL and again ran  

      * # python2.4 ~harsha/PIL/setup.py build  # ~harsha/PIL/setup.py install 
9. again i ran  

      * $ cd ~harsha/ldtp/python  # python2.4 ./setup.py build # python2.4 setup.py install running install running build running build_py running install_lib copying build/lib/ldtputils.py -> /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages  copying build/lib/ldtp.py -> /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages byte-compiling /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ldtputils.py to ldtputils.pyc byte-compiling /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ldtp.py to ldtp.pyc  running install_data 
and ldtprunner got copied to /usr/bin 

10. Now I went to Start Menu/Preferences/Accesibility/Assistive Technology Support <click> 

      * in the window that appears select "Enable Assistive Technology Support" and say ok 
11. I opened one more terminal and typed 

      * $ ldtp & 
   * (server should run right) 
12. I opened gedit application 

13. now cd ~harsha/EXAMPLES/gedit 

14  run the command 

      * $ python2.4 /usr/bin/ldtprunner gedit-execution.xml 
15. and the Magic started to happen Hurray Yummy yummy!!! I am happy ;)
