NAME
doc_INSTALL_mdINSTALL - DEBIAN If you want to rebuild Elektra from Debian unstable or our repositories, add a deb-src entry to /etc/apt/sources.list and then run: apt-get source -b elektra To build Debian Packages from the source you might want to use: dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -sa (You need to be in the Debian branch, see GIT) GENERIC First follow the steps in COMPILE. To install Elektra use: sudo make install To uninstall Elektra use (will not be very clean, e.g. it will not remove directories and *.pyc files): sudo make uninstall or in the build directory (will not honor DESTDIR!): xargs rm < install_manifest.txt CPACK First follow the steps in COMPILE.. Then use: cpack which should create a package for distributions where a Generator is implemented. See this cmake file for available Generators and send a merge request for your system. TROUBLESHOOTING If you encounter the problem that the library can not be found (output like this) kdb: error while loading shared libraries: libelektratools.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory You need to place a configuration file at /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ (e.g. /etc/ld.so.conf.d/elektra.conf). Add the path where the library has been installed /usr/lib/local/ and run ldconfig as root.
