QUICK INSTALATION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you plan to use LinPac for recieving and sending your mail then please
install the ax25mail-utils package first.
Before compilation please run
./configure
The default destination directory prefix is set to /usr/local
If you want to change this, add --prefix switch:
./configure --prefix=DIR
where DIR is the new destination directory prefix.
(LinPac installs into PREFIX/bin and PREFIX/share/linpac)
After this just type
make
to compile the package and then type
make install
or
make install-strip
to install the package. The install-strip command will also strip the
debugging information from the program (the instalation is then
MUCH SMALLER).
SOME NOTES TO INSTALATION (for hackers)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The applicatons are linked using the shared library by default (the library
liblinpac.so is installed in /usr/local/lib). You can link all the
applications staticaly by running
configure --enable-LINKSTATIC
For debugging LinPac is useful to run LinPac in the place of compile without
installing it. For this the command 'make noinstall' can be used. This will
create the directory structure in the ./src directory. This is only
available with the static linked applications.
See file INSTALL for more informations about configure tool.
KNOWN PROBLEMS
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- DEQUE problem
Since the release 0.13 linpac doesn't use deque more. The
switch --enable-DEQUED has been removed.
- Can't run LinPac with non-root UID
Please check the access rights to /var/lock directory. LinPac needs to
create a lockfile here.
