Installing Version v0.9-5


New Users: The easiest way to install:
if you have Extras-devel/Extras-Testing active go to AppManager->Graphics->Ansel-A and click install.

Previous Users: I now first suggest either AppManager->Uninstall->Ansel-A or
Code:
apt-get purge ansela
apt-get install ansela


If for some reason you're downloading (wget) the deb directly and are installing with dpkg:
run dpkg -i ansela_0.9-5_all.deb and then apt-get -f install to get the depends.

For some of the alpha testers (blizzard & debernardis) noted that earlier versions from extras-devel, especially the temporary v0.8-1 version have caused problematic installs. I/They suggest the simple purge method above before a reinstall for those users, there were some structural changes, that could cause a conflict.




Shout-Outs:
Thank you all who have helped me over the past 2 months getting this released in time for the Calling All Innovators Contest, But especially:
achipa / attila77 for past work, fast answers, unreal patience to us noobs and of course PyQt4.7
noobmonkey you asked all the hard questions a month before me, so I just had to read the forums/irc
xvxxig guess who knows enough Linux now?
jgh for telling me what functions we really needed to have.
baconlt & tavaura20 my awesomely critical beta-testers, photographers and soundboards
mangoconleche & hunter30-06 You two know why, thanks to you the most

Doesn't start on my N900 (PR1.2).
When called from xterm as /opt/anselA/ansela.py issues an ImportError: cannot import name QtWebKit

Is there some dependency to install?

did you load it from the extras-devel Repo? It's still being pushed to Extras-Testing. Did you install from the command line with
Code:
 dpkg -i
If so a simple
Code:
apt-get -f install
usually fixes these problems.

otherwise to get to a clean slate for alpha testers, now mentioned above:
Code:
apt-get purge ansela
apt-get install ansela
If you have Extras-Testing installed, Just wait for the update, v0.9 and all needed depends will come down automatically (but I'll look into it)

edit: looked into it and edited this post

I have both extra-testing and extra-devel enabled. The installed version is 0.8-1. It appears that the version in extra-testing is 0.9-1. Seems I was too much in a rush
Now deinstalling and trying to get the right one

Edit: OK solved. Thanks

Ha ha, good
To that point, I just purged python2.5-qt4-* from my device and SDK, and reinstalled on both with (apt-get install ansela) and it worked as expected, I have to admit you had me a bit worried there.

I Think I should mention in the announce that it's version 0.9-1.
0.8-* were severely chaotic development versions; as I migrated dependencies and optimized the code over the last 3 days.

If you have any questions please post away... I've been waiting for new uesers for quite some time.

I am missing a simple paint function.. or did i miss something? If that is added this would be a killer app. Like the flow and user friendliness.

I sent an email to planet at maemo.org a few weeks ago, but I'd be honored to be added.

I'd like to add a burn/dodge tool for this purpose. Have a look too at MyPaint It runs fantastic on the N900.
