GNOME User
Docs-2.18.2
Installation of GNOME User Docs
![[Note]](../images/note.png)
Note
The instructions below are based on installing the package into a
GNOME-2 environment. If, for whatever reason, you're installing
this package without having ORBit2 and the core GNOME-2 libraries
installed, you'll need to modify the --prefix= parameter on the configure script to point to
your desired installation path (e.g., --prefix=/usr).
Install GNOME User Docs by running
the following commands:
./configure --prefix=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0) \
--localstatedir=/var/lib &&
make
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root user:
make install
Command Explanations
--prefix=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix
ORBit-2.0): Setting the prefix using this parameter
instead of with $GNOME_PREFIX will
ensure that the prefix is consistent with the installation
environment and the package will be installed in the correct
location.
--localstatedir=/var/lib:
This parameter is used so that all ScrollKeeper files are installed in, and the
ScrollKeeper database is properly
updated in /var/lib/scrollkeeper
instead of some files being installed in $GNOME_PREFIX/var/scrollkeeper.
