The instructions below are based on installing the package into a
GNOME-2 environment. If, for whatever reason, you're installing
this package without having ORBit2 and the core GNOME-2 libraries
installed, you'll need to modify the --prefix=
parameter on the configure script to point to
your desired installation path (e.g., --prefix=/usr
).
Install GNOME MIME Data by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0) \ --sysconfdir=/etc/gnome/2.18.3 \ --mandir=$(pkg-config \ --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0)/share/man && make
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root
user:
make install && install -v -m644 -D man/gnome-vfs-mime.5 \ $(pkg-config \ --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0)/share/man/man5/gnome-vfs-mime.5
--prefix=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix
ORBit-2.0)
: Setting the prefix using this parameter
instead of with $GNOME_PREFIX
will
ensure that the prefix is consistent with the installation
environment and the package will be installed in the correct
location.
--sysconfdir=/etc/gnome/2.18.3
: This
parameter causes the configuration files to be installed in
/etc/gnome/2.18.3
instead of
$GNOME_PREFIX/etc
. Additionally (if
applicable), the parameter ensures that the GConf-2 database is correctly updated.
--mandir=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix
ORBit-2.0)/share/man
: This parameter causes the
man.(X)
files to be installed in
$GNOME_PREFIX/share/man/man(X)
instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/man/man(X)
.
