Installation of Empathy
Install Empathy by running the
following commands:
./configure --prefix=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0) \
--sysconfdir=/etc/gnome/2.30.2 \
--libexecdir=$(pkg-config \
--variable=prefix ORBit-2.0)/lib/empathy &&
make
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root user:
make install
Command Explanations
--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/2.30.2: This
parameter causes the configuration files to be installed in
/etc/gnome/2.30.2 instead of
$GNOME_PREFIX/etc. Additionally (if
applicable), the parameter ensures that the GConf-2 database is correctly updated.
--libexecdir=$(pkg-config
--variable=prefix ORBit-2.0)/lib/empathy: This
parameter is used so that the Empathy internal support programs are
installed in the preferred location of $GNOME_PREFIX/lib/empathy instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/libexec.
--enable-gtk-doc: Use this parameter if
GTK-Doc is installed and you wish
to rebuild and install the API documentation.
