1. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
A working installation of Perl is required, version 5.8.8 or higher.
2. INSTALLING ON GNU/LINUX
Note that with the exception of Ubuntu, you have to be logged in as super-
user in order to run commands described in this section. To do so, type the
following at a shell prompt:
~]$ su -
Password:
2.1. Installing on Debian
BlazeBlogger is currently available in both testing (Squeeze) and unstable
(Sid) version of Debian. To install it, open a terminal, and run the follo-
wing command:
~]# apt-get install blazeblogger
2.2. Installing on Fedora
BlazeBlogger is currently available in both Fedora 12 (Constantine) and 13
(Goddard). To install it, open a terminal, and run the following command:
~]# yum install blazeblogger
2.3. Installing on Ubuntu
BlazeBlogger is currently available in Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx). To
install it, open a terminal, and run the following command:
~]# sudo apt-get install blazeblogger
3. INSTALLING ON WINDOWS
Currently, there is no installer for Microsoft Windows. To use BlazeBlogger
there, download the latest version from the official homepage, unpack it,
and use the batch files that are located in blazeblogger-1.2.0/windows/.
For example:
C:\blazeblogger-1.2.0\windows> blaze init
Alternatively, you can use BlazeBlogger with Cygwin. In that case, see Sec-
tion 4, "Installing from the Source Code" for detailed installation instru-
ctions.
4. INSTALLING FROM THE SOURCE CODE
To install BlazeBlogger from the source code, download the latest source
package from the official homepage, and unpack it:
~]$ tar xfz blazeblogger-1.2.0.tar.gz
A directory called blazeblogger-1.2.0 will appear in the current working
directory. Switch to superuser, get into the newly created directory, and
type "make install" at a shell prompt:
blazeblogger-1.2.0]# make install
This will install executables, manual pages, documentation, and application
data to the /usr/local/ directory, and place the Bash completion file to
/etc/bash_completion.d/. To use a different installation directory, change
the value of "prefix" on the command line. For example, if you want to ins-
tall BlazeBlogger to /usr/, type the following command:
blazeblogger-1.2.0]# make prefix=/usr install
Alternatively, you can choose to install executables only. For instance, to
install BlazeBlogger into your home directory, type:
blazeblogger-1.2.0]$ make prefix=$HOME install_bin
Finally, if you prefer to install all available files, but you do not have
superuser privileges, change the value of "compdir" to a directory you have
access to. For example:
blazeblogger-1.2.0]$ make prefix=$HOME compdir='$(prefix)/etc' install
