Install Gnopernicus by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=`pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0` \ --libexecdir=`pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0`/sbin \ --sysconfdir=/etc/gnome --localstatedir=/var/lib \ --with-default-fonts-path=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 && make
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root user:
make install
--libexecdir=`pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0`/sbin: This switch puts libexec files in $GNOME_PREFIX/sbin instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/libexec.
--sysconfdir=/etc/gnome: This switch puts configuration files in /etc/gnome instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/etc.
--localstatedir=/var/lib: This switch puts ScrollKeeper files in /var/lib/scrollkeeper instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/var/scrollkeeper.
--with-default-fonts-path=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1: This switch installs Braille fonts into /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 instead of /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1.
