Building from release tarball is a mess #44

Open rkeene opened 7 years ago

rkeene commented 7 years ago

Building from the 1.6 release tarball is a mess. It requires setting up a bunch of symlinks to various things to get the Makefile to build the target and the Makefile lacks an install target.

Hi @rkeene,

You can checkout the release page with prebuilt binaries: https://github.com/moul/gotty-client/releases

I just added a make install target; If you prefer to compile the sources by yourself, just be sure to clone/download the repo inside your $GOPATH/src/github.com/moul, else you will need to create symlinks

I downloaded the release tarball, not cloning the Git repo since I'm intending to use the release.

it should not be a problem, but you need to be sure to download and extract it at the good location ($GOPATH/src/github.com/moul/gotty-client)
