Now that you have downloaded the LCDproc distribution you can start building it.
If you have installed the Debian package with apt-get (or another Debian package management tool), you can skip this this chapter.
If you're building this version from CVS, you'll need autoconf, automake, aclocal and autoheader installed.
If you have autoconf and friends, run:
$
sh autogen.sh
This produces the configure script and supporting files. It has already been run if you are using the tarball distribution.
Once the above command has run, the rest is pretty standard:
$
./configure --help
Read about the options, figure out what to use.
$
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-drivers=curses,CFontz
Be sure to replace /usr/local
with the prefixdir you want
(e.g. /usr
for RedHat) and curses,CFontz
with
the comma-separated list of drivers you want to have compiled.
$
make
Congratulations: You have just compiled your version of LCDproc ;)
