beid MiddleWare installation

I. Code from svn repository:

• Make sure you have libtool 2.2.7c or above, autoconf and automake installed, and in your $PATH
• run autoreconf -i
• proceed to II.

II. Code from a source package, or code you just bootstrapped at item I.

a) GNU/Linux

• Make sure you have pcsc-lite and gtk2 and and their development libraries installed after that it's just:

  ./configure make sudo make install

You should now have beid libraries in /usr/local/lib and one beid executable in /usr/local/bin

At runtime, you will need a running pcsc daemon ("pcscd") with the correct driver for your type of card reader (ccid drivers are generally installed automatically along with the pcscd package)

b) OSX

• Make sure you have the Qt and pcsc-lite frameworks installed

  /Library/Frameworks/{QtCore,QtGui,PCSC}.Framework

(TODO: complete these instructions)

c) MS Windows: TODO: Write README chapter

d) Dialogs

Pin dialogs can be disabled eg for applications that have their own dialogs:

./configure --enable-dialogs=no # the default is yes

e) Firefox

To use the Belgian eID in Firefox, we recommend the Firefox extension to handle configuration automatically. The extension will be installed on Linux and OSX. The default install locations:

• Linux: DATADIR/mozilla/extensions/{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384} (DATADIR is by default PREFIXDIR/lib - PREFIXDIR is by default /usr/local)
• OSX: /Library/Application Support/Mozilla/Extensions/{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}

To change the install location:

./configure --with-mozext=/mozilla/firefox/extensions/directory

To create an XPI package, run:

make xpipackage
