Using Gaphas with libavoid

Libavoid is a library that does 2D line-routing to avoid obstacles. Gaphas is a canvas widget written in Python using Cairo. We use Gaphas in our canvas-based modeller. We would like now to incorporate Gaphas' support for libavoid so that building diagrams on our canvas-based modeller is much easier to do.

Testing Gaphas with libavoid

This is still work in progress, so expect the instructions to change!

• Install Cython. You need 0.14 or later. For Ubuntu 10.04, you can use a PPA build from here.

• Obtain latest patched libavoid code from Arjan Molenaar using

git clone https://github.com/amolenaar/adaptagrams.git
