Install ORBit2 by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=$GNOME_PREFIX \ --sysconfdir=/etc/gnome/2.14.3 && make
To test the results, issue: make check.
Now, as the root user:
make install
--prefix=$GNOME_PREFIX: This is the base installation for GNOME-2 from which all future package installations will receive their prefix parameter. Be sure that $GNOME_PREFIX is set for this install or globally to your install directory as described in the introduction of this Chapter.
--sysconfdir=/etc/gnome/2.14.3: This parameter causes the configuration files to be installed in /etc/gnome/2.14.3 instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/etc. Additionally (if applicable), the parameter ensures that the GConf-2 database is correctly updated.
--enable-gtk-doc: Use this parameter if GTK-Doc is installed and you wish to rebuild the API documentation.
