INSTRUCTIONS TO COMPILE AND INSTALL NANO CVS VERSIONS
|
|
|
|
-----------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
GNU nano is available from CVS, but building this needs a bit
|
|
|
|
more care than the official stable and unstable tarballs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To succesfully compile GNU nano from CVS, you'll need the
|
|
|
|
following packages:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- autoconf (versions 2.13 or >= 2.50)
|
2002-01-30 16:29:31 +00:00
|
|
|
- automake (version 1.4-pl5 recommended)
|
2002-01-23 13:20:20 +00:00
|
|
|
- autoheader
|
|
|
|
- gettext (version 0.10.40)
|
|
|
|
- texinfo
|
|
|
|
- cvs
|
|
|
|
- make, gcc and the normal development libraries (ncurses, etc)
|
|
|
|
These should be available on your GNU mirror.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To download the CVS tree, execute the following command:
|
2002-01-31 09:53:57 +00:00
|
|
|
$ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/nano login
|
2002-01-23 13:20:20 +00:00
|
|
|
and press enter at the password prompt.
|
|
|
|
Then, do
|
2002-01-31 09:53:57 +00:00
|
|
|
$ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/nano checkout nano
|
2002-01-30 16:29:31 +00:00
|
|
|
and the nano tree will download.
|
|
|
|
If you want to checkout the stable CVS branch, append -r nano_1_0_branch:
|
|
|
|
$ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@subversions.gnu.org:/cvsroot/nano checkout -r nano_1_0_branch nano
|
2002-01-23 13:20:20 +00:00
|
|
|
|
2002-01-30 16:29:31 +00:00
|
|
|
One you have the sources in the "nano" directory, cd into it, and execute
|
2002-01-23 13:20:20 +00:00
|
|
|
the "autogen.sh" script in the top dir. This will setup a configure script
|
|
|
|
and Makefile.in, and you will be ready to compile with
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure [--add-options-here] && make
|
|
|
|
Once it's done compiling,
|
|
|
|
$ make install
|
|
|
|
should put the required files in their respective directories.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Please submit any bugs in the CVS branch to nano-devel@lists.sourceforge.net.
