The ManaTools Project has abandoned this project in favor of splitting out each of the tools into their own projects, leveraging the common python-manatools framework library.

The various ManaTools can be found on GitHub.

ManaTools is a generic launcher application that can run internal or external modules, such as system configuration tools.

ManaTools is also a collection of configuration tools that allows users to configure most of their system components in a very simple, intuitive and attractive interface. It consists of some modules that can be also run as autonomous applications.

ManaTools started as a port of MCC (Mageia/Mandriva Control Center) to libYui (Suse widget abstraction library), but its aim is to give an easy and common interface to develop and add new modules based on libYui. Every modules as well as ManaTools itself can be run using QT, Gtk or ncurses interface.

• libyui-mga - our widget extension *

  • https://github.com/xquiet/libyui-mga

• SUSE libyui-bindings - anaselli fork *

  • https://github.com/anaselli/libyui-bindings/tree/mageia This fork is necessary to include also libyui-mga extension.
  • For references, master is https://github.com/libyui/libyui-bindings

• at least one of the SUSE libyui plugins *

  • libyui-gtk - https://github.com/libyui/libyui-gtk
  • libyui-ncurses - https://github.com/libyui/libyui-ncurses
  • libyui-qt - https://github.com/libyui/libyui-qt
  • Consider here also to check some not yet approved changes at https://github.com/anaselli/libyui-XXX forks (where XXX is gtk, qt or ncurses)

• at least one of the MGA libyui widget extension plugins (according to the one above) *

  • libyui-mga-gtk - https://github.com/xquiet/libyui-mga-gtk
  • libyui-mga-ncurses - https://github.com/xquiet/libyui-mga-ncurses
  • libyui-mga-qt - https://github.com/xquiet/libyui-mga-qt

Note that libyui-mga and libyui-mga plugins are mainly developed on https://bitbucket.org/_pmat_/libyui-YYY (where YYY is mga, mga-gtk, mga-ncurses, mga-qt) and then synchronized on github.

To install this module, run the following commands:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

To test gui dialogs run: make test TEST_GUI=1

To install this module with local::lib (see perldoc local::lib for details). Note add also -MCPAN if you want to install from cpan locally.

alias perl='perl -Mlocal::lib'
perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

Since admin panel works with root privileges you can do the above and install it locally then run tools as root adding your user environment variables, to know which ones run perl -Mlocal::lib as user and execute the output as root.

To build and install locales

make install_locales

To update locales (pot and pos)

make update_n_merge

If you want to test your po changes install manatools usning local::lib and pass --locales-dir path-to-your-locale-files to command line i.e.

manaclock --locales-dir /home/myuser/perl5/share/locale/

After installing, you can find documentation for this module with the perldoc command.

perldoc ManaTools
