[ghextris.git] / INSTALL
1 Ghextris 0.9.0 copyright Mikko Rauhala <mjr@iki.fi>, 2004

4 If you're running a Debian GNU/Linux (or possibly GNU/Hurd) system, you
5 can create a Debian package of Ghextris easily by running, as root or
6 under fakeroot, "debian/rules binary". The debian package can then be
7 installed as usual.
8
9 If you're not running Debian, Ghextris can be installed by running the
10 install.sh and providing it with a directory to install under. Examples:
11
12 # Install under /usr/local
13 ./install.sh /usr/local
14
15 # Install under $HOME
16 ./install.sh $HOME
17
18 The script can also take a second parameter which allows you to spesify
19 the final resting place of the directory structures from where the
20 program is to be run, if you're not installing it directly where it will
21 reside. Examples:
22
23 # Install to tmpinstall, but make sure the programs runs from /usr/local
24 # when moved there
25 ./install.sh tmpinstall /usr/local
26
27 The installation process requires msgfmt from the gettext package to
28 install message catalogs for alternative languages. If msgfmt is not
29 present, the installation will simply not install the translations, but
30 only the base program.
