## ## Install ## ******* ## ## Meld can be installed in two ways: ## ## Run directly from untar directory: ## "make" to create translations ## Now run "./meld" ## You can create a symlink to the executable ## i.e. /usr/local/bin/meld -> /meld ## ## OR ## ## Install into (for instance) /usr/local ## "make prefix=/usr/local install" ## Now run "/usr/local/bin/meld" ## ## You can customise the install paths used here: PYTHON ?= python prefix := /usr/local bindir := $(prefix)/bin libdir := $(prefix)/lib docdir := $(prefix)/share/doc sharedir := $(prefix)/share helpdir := $(sharedir)/gnome/help localedir := $(prefix)/share/locale localstatedir := $(prefix)/var libdir_ := $(libdir)/meld docdir_ := $(docdir)/meld sharedir_ := $(sharedir)/meld helpdir_ := $(helpdir)/meld ## ## Python Version ## ************** ## ## Meld requires at least python 2.4. The last release that ## supported python 2.3 was 1.2.1. If you need a version which ## works with python2.2 try one of the 0.9 series. 0.9.4.1 will ## work with old pygtk packages too. ## ## Dependencies ## ************ ## ## At the very least you will need: ## * pygtk-2.8.0 ## * gnome-python-2.8.0 ## ## Optional: ## * pygtksourceview 0.9 or higher ## (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pygtksourceview) ## ## Meld will not work with earlier versions of these packages. ## Earlier versions of meld (up to 0.9.x) required only version ## pygtk and gnome-python 2.0. ## ## They are all available from your favourite gnome mirror. ## Alternatively many distributions provide binary packages. ##
