Installation without package managers #67

Closed qgml closed 3 years ago

qgml commented 3 years ago

My Linux distro doesn't use any of the supported package managers. How do I install manually? Shouldn't there be a make install procedure?

The arch package is just a generic tarball that you can unzip at the root of your filesystem. There are a couple of arch-specific dotfiles in the root dir that you should remove afterwards. The executable is usr/local/diogenes/diogenes. You might want to link that manually from /usr/local/bin. Unzipping it like that won't create desktop menu items, etc.

What Linux distro do you use?

I see, thanks for clarifying. I use Void Linux.
