Installation of seahorse-plugins

./configure --prefix=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0) \
            --sysconfdir=/etc/gnome/2.30.2 \
            --disable-scrollkeeper \
            --disable-update-mime-database &&
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.

--disable-scrollkeeper: Do not make updates to the scrollkeeper database. Remove it if you have rarian installed.

--disable-update-mime-database: Do not run the update-mime-database utility. Remove it if you have shared-mime-info installed.
