namazTime 0.9
i’ve fixed some of the distribution issues with the last version of namazTime, and so here it is, namazTime 0.9. it’s still linux only at the moment, and it needs a notification area – most window managers either have this (gnome, kde, xfce, fluxbox), or you can get a program to handle this for those that don’t (i currently use trayer under openbox).
to bring up the prayer times, you click the icon in the notification tray. hitting x or reclicking the icon reminimizes it into the tray. to change the timings and such, right click the icon. you can find a screenshot of the program in one of the older posts about it on this weblog.
on the todo list is to fix any bugs (please comment if you find something amiss), add some sort of alarm feature (to play the athan, for example), provide translations (arabic especially), and maybe port to windows and osx.
if you try it, please leave your comments. thanks!
wsalams.
Hi!
I’m having trouble installing the software.. when i try to compile; ./configure, says that libglade 2.0 and gtk+-2.0 cannot be found even though i checked that they were installed perhaps a newer version. What do i do?
Thanks in advance

what happens when you do these?
pkg-config gtk+-2.0 –modversion
pkg-config libglade-2.0 –modversion
the minimum required version seems to be 2.0.0
what is the specifc error message that you have?
try to compile it manually and see if it works — go into the src directory and type:
gcc *.c `pkg-config gtk+-2.0 –cflags –libs`
if all you get is a few errors about some constants (PACKAGE_DATA_DIR and PACKAGE_SOURCE_DIR), then most likely you have the correct libraries and something else is wrong. if you get more errors than that, then there’s probably something wrong with the installed libraries. check to see if you have the devel packages installed (not sure if this is a problem under fc5 or not though).
hope this helps…
