Kurapati</div><time class="date" datetime="2005-06-27T00:00:00-07:00">27 June 2005</time></header><hr /><div class="description"></div><div class="content"><p><a href="http://workrave.org">Workrave</a> is a fantastic break-reminder program which
aids the responsible user in <em>preventing</em> RSI and eye-strain. It is far better
than <code>gnome-typing-monitor</code>, which periodically invokes instinctual panic by
flashing a red square whence less than one minute remains before a break!</p>
<p>Presently, there is no pre-built binary package for Workrave under Fedora Core
4, so I’ve had to track down dependencies and compile it myself. The necessary
dependencies can be installed by executing this command:</p>
<div class="highlight"><pre class="highlight plaintext"><code>yum install '[lg]**mm**devel' gnome-panel-devel gnet2-devel
</code></pre></div><p>After doing this, the source package compiles smoothly, without dependency
errors.</p>
<p>I should also mention that I am using, in addition to the default Fedora
repositories, the <a href="http://dag.wieers.com/apt/">DAG</a>,
<a href="http://dries.ulyssis.org/ayo/">Dries</a>,
<a href="http://freshrpms.net/apt/">FreshRPMS</a>, and
<a href="http://rpm.livna.org/configuration.html">Livna</a> repositories—whose yum repo
files <a href="pub/yum.repos.d/">can be acquired here</a>.</p>
<p>Place these repo files into <code>/etc/yum.repos.d</code> to make use of the
aforementioned repositories.</p>
