15 How to compile this.
16 --------------------
17 1. libdbm
18
19 arpd needs to have the berkeleydb development libraries. For Debian
20 users this is the package with a name like libdbX.X-dev.
21 DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
22 is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
23 database routines. Often this is in the db-devel package.
24
25 2. make
26
27 The makefile will automatically build a config.mk file which
28 contains definitions of libraries that may or may not be available
29 on the system such as: ATM, ELF, MNL, and SELINUX.
30
31 3. To make documentation, cd to doc/ directory , then
32 look at start of Makefile and set correct values for
33 PAGESIZE=a4 , ie: a4 , letter ... (string)
34 PAGESPERPAGE=2 , ie: 1 , 2 ... (numeric)
35 and make there. It assumes, that latex, dvips and psnup
36 are in your path.
37
38 4. This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
39 the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
40 if you have special requirements and need to point at different
41 kernel include files.
