Installation Instruction #18

I am trying to install your package but I'm not sure how to install the software. Can you maybe write a (very) short installation instruction? Thanks

ghost commented 3 years ago

I did:

  1. git clone https://github.com/sardemff7/purple-libnotify-plus
  2. cd purple-libnotify-plus
  3. ./autogen.sh # Not sure if this is necessary
  4. ./configure
  5. make
  6. make install

If you get an error about libnotify missing at step 4, it means you need the libnotify development package (libnotify-dev in Ubuntu). Just install that and rerun ./configure.

Im trying to build purple-libnotify-plus and I keep getting this:

configure: error: Package requirements (purple-events >= 0.99.1) were not met:

Package 'purple-events', required by 'virtual:world', not found

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.

But I've already built purple-events and its installed

libtool: install: /usr/bin/install -c .libs/purple-events-exec.soT /usr/local/lib/purple-2/purple-events-exec.so libtool: install: /usr/bin/install -c .libs/purple-events-exec.lai /usr/local/lib/purple-2/purple-events-exec.la gmake --no-print-directory install-data-hook cd /usr/local/lib/purple-2 && \ rm purple-events.la purple-events-exec.la

OS is FreeBSD
