we had scheduled for the 1.x.x series. Series 2.x.x will be
&kde; 4.x releases. Hopefully, it is easy to

<para>We provide daily snapshots of &krusader;'s
CVS version. For those who are interested, the
<emphasis role="bold">nightly tarball</emphasis> can be found
on the &krucutedge-url;. Depending on the stage of
development, this version will either be stable or unstable.
Just before a stable release, the CVS version is almost
stable. After a stable release new features will be committed
into CVS, which might lead to the appearance of bugs. In some
rare cases, the build will not even compile if we make a
mistake. In that case we try to fix the error as soon as
possible.</para>

<title>Detailed Installation Tutorial</title>
<para>The next section will explain how to install
&krusader; step by step. Questions about the
installation process have been asked many times and
especially users new to &Linux; often have
problems compiling software from source. Therefore, we are
trying to keep the explanations as detailed as possible even
if they are mostly not &krusader; specific.
Experienced users may easily skip most of the steps.</para>
<para>Unfortunately, because not all &Linux;
distributions follow the &fhs-url; it is impossible
to write a tutorial that would cover all circumstances.
However, these guidelines will help you in the right
direction.</para>

<para>Normally your distribution will set them for you,
but experience has shown that some do not. You can easily
check the values with the

<prompt>$</prompt> <userinput><command>echo</command> $KDEDIR</userinput>/usr</screen>
If both commands give an output, the enviroment variables
are set (the above example are the settings of
&mandriva;-&Linux;). In case you
receive empty lines, the variables are not set and you
have to set them manually. If you do not know what to set
the variables to, or if you want to check if the
variables are correctly set, ask your distributor or use
the
<command>find</command> command.

<prompt>$</prompt> <userinput><command>find</command> <option>/usr /opt -name</option> kdeinit <option>-type f 2>/dev/null</option></userinput>
/usr/bin/kdeinit</screen>
In this case
<filename>/usr/lib/qt3</filename> is your
<envar>QTDIR</envar> and
<filename>/usr</filename> is your
<envar>KDEDIR</envar>. The installed binaries will go to
<filename>/usr/bin</filename>. Now we will set the
enviroment variables with the

<para>Your &Linux; distro
&krusader; RPM or DEB package will normally
install &krusader; in the
<filename>KDEDIR/bin</filename> directory. According to
the &fhs-url;, any user installed files go to
the
<filename>/usr/local</filename> directory. If you wish
&krusader; to be installed in another
directory, it can be determed with the prefix option. If
you do not have root access,
<filename>/home/YOUR_USERNAME/.kde</filename> is probably
a good choice.

<para>Since &krusader;-1.70.0

&krusader; options:
<itemizedlist>

<userinput>
<command>./configure</command>
<option>--without-konqueror</option>
</userinput>: build &krusader; without support
&konqueror;'s servicemenus, default=with.
This means that &konqueror;'s right-click
menu entries will not be available.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<userinput>
<command>./configure</command>
<option>--without-javascript</option>
</userinput>: build &krusader; without JavaScript

available.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<userinput>
<command>./configure</command>
<option>--without-acl</option>
</userinput>: build &krusader; without ACL support default=with.
Sometimes this option is needed if you get a ACL compile error when running <command>make</command>.</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>In the past the support was always
compiled in when the headers where found, now you have
the choice.</para>
<para>Use
<userinput>
<command>./configure</command>
<option>--help</option>
</userinput>to see more options or read the
<filename>INSTALL</filename> file in the
&krusader; sources.</para>
<para>If you used another --prefix= than
<filename>$KDEDIR or /usr/local</filename>, it is
recommended to do an extra check:
<screen><prompt>$</prompt> <userinput><command>kde-config</command> <option>--path exe</option></userinput>
/home/frank/.kde/bin/:/usr/bin/:/usr/local/bin/
<prompt>$</prompt></screen>
If the
<prefix_dir/bin> directory is
not shown, you need to use e.g.
<command>export KDEDIRS=/usr/local:/usr</command>. To
make these settings permanent you can ⪚
append this export command to your
<filename>/etc/profile</filename> file. After that you
need to restart &kde;.</para>
<note>
<para>If
<command>./configure</command> fails, take a look at

From now on the port is maintained by
<ulink url="http://hritcu.wordpress.com/about/">Catalin Hritcu</ulink>.
</para></note>
<para>Krusader is ported to &MacOS; thanks the &fink-url;-project and Jonas
Bähr and &bodo-tasche-url; .
Unfortunately the only *stable* kdelib-binaries which
&fink-url; has to offer is currenly 3.1.4 which
means you need to use &krusader;-1.40 .
Unfortunately the &MacOS; X &krusader;
port does not have the same power as in a native
&Linux;-&kde; environment. To run
&krusader; you need also X11, which doesn't interact
with the rest of the &MacOS; desktop. We hope that
&Qt;4/&kde;4 will solve most of these
problems. If you want a more recent Krusader version you need
to compile &kde;. With &fink-url; it is
rather easy but it takes some CPU cycles.</para>
