A better answer on just getting Kiwix running for Maemo etc.
Hi Christian, Hi Biketool
I'm not familiar with Maemo/Meego/Tizen or whatever this is called
nowathedays.
We have now a bunch of ports which are maintained, see
https://code.kiwix.org. An maybe one of them would be a good base to
make a port.
I think in particular to:
* Or new Qt based Kiwix-Desktop
* The Kiwix-JS project which has been built on Evopedia JS code and is
actively developed (we just have released version 2.7.0). Kiwix-JS,
because of Javascript, is pretty versatile and has been ported as
standalone app to a few OSes already.
Hope that helps.
Kind regards
Emmanuel

Who do have Russian dump for Evopedia (any)?

Dear Biketool,
thanks for your message! I'm glad to hear that this small project still
has an active community!
Evopedia used a script to render html files from Wikipedia articles that
was deprecated already back in the days. I'm almost certain that it is
impossible to get it working again with the latest Mediawiki. You would
have to modify the mysql database importer to be compatible to the
updated database format and also the html renderer to be compatible with
the current Wikimedia extension system.
If you want to try nevertheless, the dump scripts can be found here:
https://github.com/evopedia/evopedia...er/dumpscripts
The main mechanism is inside
https://github.com/evopedia/evopedia...sions/DumpHTML
Emmanuel, would you be able to help here in any way? Kiwix is using a
different renderer, so I fear that won't be an option. Do you know if
kiwix can be ported to maemo?
Best,
Christian.
The lesson to learn is go with FOSS, whether or not we restart the processor at least we have a chance to hack this project back to life, were this come closed commercial software we would have only a microscopic chance of decompiling or building a pre processor to feed it the input needed.
