Supplementary Compile Instructions for Debian-based Systems
	===========================================================

Unfortunately, many people have trouble compiling Gtk-Gnutella on Linux
distributions albeit it should be very simple. The following applies to
Debian-based system that is also Ubuntu.


1. Dependencies:
================

You'll have to install the following packages:

apt-get install gcc		# GCC; any version is fine
apt-get install make		# the make tool; any version is fine
apt-get install zlib1g-dev	# zlib
apt-get install libxml2-dev	# libxml 2.x
apt-get install libgnutls-dev	# GNU TLS

For the Gtk+ 2.x front-end you'll need these:

apt-get install libglib2.0-dev	# GLib 2.x
apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev	# Gtk+ 2.x

If you want to use the Gtk+ 1.2 front-end instead:

apt-get install libglib1.2-dev	# GLib 1.2
apt-get install libgtk1.2-dev	# Gtk+ 1.2

The following packages are optional:

apt-get install libsqlite3-dev 	# SQLite 3.x
apt-get install libdbus-1-dev	# D-Bus


2. Build:
=========

Run from the top of the source tree:

  $ fakeroot debian/rules binary

and it will build the .deb package for you in the parent directory.


3. Finish:
==========

You can then run Gtk-Gnutella without installing:

 $ src/gtk-gnutella

To install Gtk-Gnutella just run (version and architecture will vary):

 $ cd ..
 $ su
 # dpkg --install gtk-gnutella_0.96.2-0_i386.deb

For further compile options and instructions, see the README file and
edit the debian/rules file to change the line calling "Configure" to suit
your taste.
