The git archive doesn't contain pre-built configuration scripts for | |
UNIXish platforms. To generate them say | |
sh autogen.sh | |
which in turn depends on the following packages: | |
automake (1.10.1) | |
libtool (2.2.4) | |
autoconf (2.62) | |
The versions given in parentheses are known to work. Newer versions | |
should work too, of course. Note that autogen.sh also sets up proper | |
file permissions for the `configure' and auxiliary scripts. | |
The autogen.sh script now checks the version of above three packages | |
whether they match the numbers above. Otherwise it will complain and | |
suggest either upgrading or using an environment variable to point to | |
a more recent version of the required tool(s). | |
Note that `aclocal' is provided by the `automake' package on Linux, | |
and that `libtoolize' is called `glibtoolize' on Darwin (OS X). | |
For static builds which don't use platform specific optimizations, no | |
configure script is necessary at all; saying | |
make setup ansi | |
make | |
should work on all platforms which have GNU make (or makepp). | |
Similarly, a build with `cmake' can be done directly from the git | |
repository. | |
