Example Installation in More Detail:
|
|
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
0) Make sure that the prerequisite KDE 3.2 development libraries and
|
|
|
|
headers are installed first. These can be found at
|
|
|
|
<http://www.kde.org>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1) Unzip and untar the package into its own directory. Change into
|
|
|
|
this directory, and read the README file. (I'm assuming that
|
|
|
|
you've read this, the INSTALL file :-))
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2) Type './configure --help", and peruse the configure options
|
|
|
|
available. It may be necessary to use one or more of these options
|
|
|
|
on your system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
3) Type './configure' to configure the software for your system. If
|
|
|
|
you're using `csh' on an old version of System V, you might need
|
|
|
|
to type sh ./configure' instead.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4) Type 'make' to compile the package.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5) If you are not logged in as root, type 'su' and enter the root
|
|
|
|
password to switch over to the root account. This is not necessary
|
|
|
|
if you configured the software to install to your home directory/
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
6) Type 'make install' to install the software.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
7) Activate the styles, decorations and color schemes through the
|
|
|
|
KDE Control Center or the Preferences menu.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
8) You can uninstall the software by typing 'make uninstall'.
|

A Note on the KDE Library
|
|
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you are having problems configuring the software, first make sure
|
|
|
|
that the required KDE 3.2 or greater libraries are installed. Several
|
|
|
|
systems have broken this into several packages. You will need both
|
|
|
|
the runtime and the development packages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you still have problems, set the TDEDIR environment variable and
|
|
|
|
the --prefix configure option to the location where you installed
|
|
|
|
KDE. Also make sure that you are using GNU make and not the standard
|
|
|
|
make everyone else uses.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Rebuilding the Configuration
|
|
|
|
============================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you ever need to rebuild the configuration files, type the
|
|
|
|
following in thebase directory of the distribution:
|
|
|
|
make -f Makefile.cvs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You will need the current automake/autoconf set of programs.
