- If you want to hack on the GIMP project, it will make you life easier
- to have the following packages installed:
- - GNU autoconf 2.13
- - GNU automake 1.4
- - GNU libtool 1.2d
- - GNU gettext 10.38
- Available in ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu
- These should be available by ftp from prep.ai.mit.edu or any of the
- fine GNU mirrors. Beta software can be found at alpha.gnu.org.
- If you are accessing gimp via CVS, then you will need to take several
- steps to get it to compile. You can do all these steps at once
- by running:
- cvsroot/gimp# ./autogen.sh
- Basically this does the following for you:
- cvsroot/gimp# aclocal; automake; autoconf
- The above commands create the "configure" script. Now you
- can run the configure script in cvsroot/gimp to create all
- the Makefiles.
- Before running autogen.sh or configure, make sure you have libtool
- in your path. Also make sure gtk.m4 is in the same --prefix relative
- to your automake installation.
- Note that autogen.sh runs configure for you. If you wish to pass
- options like --prefix=/usr to configure you can give those options
- to autogen.sh and they will be passed on to configure.
- Please submit patches to the gimp-developer@scam.xcf.berkeley.edu mailing
- list. All kinds of contributions are accepted. Patches that you wish to go
- into the distribution should also be uploaded to ftp://ftp.gimp.org/incoming.
- Follow the rules there for naming your patches.
- Please notice that some files in the source are generated from other sources.
- Among these are the files ending in _pdb.[ch] in the libgimp directory
- and the files ending in _cmds.c in the app subdirectory. Those are generated
- from the respective .pdb files in tools/pdbgen/pdb. All those files have a
- short notice about being autogenerated somewhere at the top.
