I upgraded from Fedora 9 to Fedora 10 yesterday and the Gramps genealogy program stopped working. Seems they came up with an improvement that uses a new type of database file. The new Gramps will run on 10 and won't read the old .grdb files. The old Gramps won't run on 10. You have to convert to the new files <i>before</i> you upgrade or you're stuck.<br>
<br>Took me all day, trying suggestions that didn't work and creating a Sun xVM VirtualBox with Solaris 8 on it, finding out how to share files between the host and virtual machines, converting the files and moving them back, but it does work. I learned a lot too. And my virtual machines are a whole lot cooler with the Guest Additions running on them.<br>
<br>But if you happen to be thinking of upgrading to Fedora 10 and are running Gramps, I advise converting the DB <i>first.</i><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Jack Smith<br><br>English doesn't borrow from other languages -- English follows other languages down dark alleys and takes what it wants.<br>
