Basic Installation
Requirements
- A Linux or FreeBSD compatible operating system.
- At least the Qt 3.3* development library.
Installing from source
- Check to make sure you have your shell QTDIR environment variable
set to point to the location of the root Qt directory. This setting is
usually something like this: 'export QTDIR=/usr/lib/qt' or something
similar to this. Failure to set this properly will result in make
errors.
- Unpack the Qtstalker source.
- ./configure (this will compile the Berkeley DB lib and create the
Makefile)
- make
- make install (as root)
- the executable 'qtstalker' will be copied to the /usr/bin
directory
- the plugins will be copied to /usr/lib/qtstalker directory
- the docs will be copied to /usr/share/doc/qtstalker/html
directory
(toc.html for the table of contents)
- Thats it.
Updating a previous version.
Updating from a previous source versionIf you are updating from a
previous source version already installed on your system it is best
that you first uninstall the previous version first before you install
the upgraded version. Doing this will better ensure a problem free
upgrade. Many upgrade errors can be caused by old plugins and libraries
hanging around complicating things. You can uninstall the old version
by doing a 'make uninstall' from the root directory of the old source
install.
Binary package users can ignore this advice as this will be done
automatically by the package installer.
