how to install wkhtmltopdf 0.12.0 on centos 6

Question

How can wkhtmltoimage 0.12.0 be installed on centos amd64? Thank you!

Answer 1

Build it from source. You need a debian/ubuntu system to do this. (Get a free amazon ec2 or something). Once you download from the git repo, you run this command:

sudo python scripts/build.py setup-schroot-centos6

And then:

python scripts/build.py centos6-amd64

If you're not on a debian-based system, you'll get "This can only be run on a Debian/Ubuntu distribution, aborting." Otherwise, it will install a big list of rpms etc to emulate the CentOS environment, and then the second command will build.

Answer 2

Use the CentOS 5 binaries for the 0.12.1-dev build linked from the website.
