gEDA
GNU Electronic Design Automation
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation instructions
Please see the end of this file for platform / vendor specific hints and
tips.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Quick Ref:
% ./configure
% make
% make install
In order to build libgeda you must install the following packages first:
GLIB 1.2.x
GTK+ 1.2.x
LibStroke 0.3 (optional)
libgdgeda 1.5 (optional) (you also need zlib for libgdgeda)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
More detailed info:
- To compile libgeda with gtk+ installed in some system directory (/usr/local
for example) type:
./configure (This should guess everything right)
(e-mail me if it doesn't)
make all
Run: configure --help for more options (such as overriding the default
prefix).
You can specify the location (full path including the gtk-config) of
gtk-config (which is required to build gEDA) by using the
--with-gtk-config flag. Example:
./configure --with-gtk-config=/home/user/bin/gtk-config
This is handy if gtk-config isn't in your PATH or in some other system
directory.
- To install libgeda into the prefix dir (and subdirs) type:
make install
in libgeda's top level directory
gEDA uses GNU Libtool in order to build shared libraries on a
variety of systems. While this is very nice for making usable
binaries, it can be a pain when trying to debug a program. For that
reason, compilation of shared libraries can be turned off by
specifying the `--disable-shared' option to `configure'.
The configure script should figure out most system dependant things, but at
this point I'm either not taking into account what configure figures out or
I have missed some system dependance. So please e-mail me at:
ahvezda@geda.seul.org
- Disabling strokes
If configure finds libstroke installed it will automatically enable
stroke support. To disable this run configure like:
./configure --disable-strokes
Then do:
make clean
make all
- Uninstall
To uninstall a previous version (or the current version) of gEDA type:
make uninstall
in the top level gEDA source directory. This will remove installed files
which belong to gEDA.
Platform / Vendor specific tips and hints
------------------------------------------
- libc5 (SuSE)
If you get the following error message:
"link: '-L' cannot specify a relative directory"
There is a problem with readline and guile. Please hide (rename)
libreadline.so.* (move it out of wherever it is installed) and rebuild
guile again. Then recompile gEDA and things should work right.
- Redhat 6.0
The guile RPMs that are shipped with RedHat 6.0 has been giving some
people some trouble. The solution seems to grab either the SRPMS and
build that or get the guile-1.3.tar.gz file and build guile manually.
- libstroke
Be sure you do not compile libstroke with MOUSE_DROPPINGS defined;
it won't work at all with gschem. You would have had to manually
define MOUSE_DROPPINGS, so if you just followed the build
instructions you should be okay.
- SunOS / Solaris
If you have problems running the shell script wrappers (when
running ./gschem or any of the other programs), try changing
the shell to /bin/ksh (or where ksh is). /bin/sh is known to
be of lesser quality on Solaris.
Also run ./configure --disable-shared if you have to problems
running programs because a shared library isn't be found/loaded.
