EDE NetInstall
NetInstall is the way of downloading, compiling and installing EDE and eFLTK packages via shell script (some readers will find it very similar with gentoo ebuilds). It is primarly created to automate downloading and compiling procedure, especially for novice users.
Please note that this script is in some kind of beta and if you find odds, report them at our tracker.
Prerequisites:
- be a root
- reasonable shell (bash is prefered)
- md5sum tool (on *BSD's it is md5)
- patch tool
- wget or lynx
To initiate it, you should run:
wget -qO- http://equinox-project.org/netinstall | sh
or
lynx --source http://equinox-project.org/netinstall | sh
After this, the script will check are you have permissions to install packages (are you a root) and do you have already installed one of the previous EDE/eFLTK packages. It is highly recomended you uninstall all before installed EDE or eFLTK packages.
It will then try to download source packages, compile them and install.
There are few influental environment variables:
- EDEFLAGS - additional configure flags for EDE
- EFLTKFLAGS - additional configure flags for eFLTK
- MD5SUM - path to md5sum or md5
- NOROOTCHECK - do not check if we are root
- IGNORECHECK - if set, do not check if EDE/eFLTK are installed
If downloading failed, make sure you delete partialy downloaded files and initiate script again.
