This is primarily for RedHat style systems, but notes are provided +on what needs to be modified for SUSE. + + +Requirements: + + OpenSSL 0.9.7 + +Require zlib and openssl headers for compilation -- may not be included when +installing the packages. (libssl-dev + libz-dev packages under debian) + +Bekerley DB v1 support is required. The configure script should find an +appropriate db package -- and if not, use an in-memory version of the code. +However, the in-memory version is not desirable as it will lose information +over restarts of the daemon. + +Ideally, include the readline headers -- libreadline4-dev, probably. + + + +(OpenSSL 0.9.7 is required as it implements new interfaces which make encryption +using the same key faster by avoiding key setup each time around. Configure it with +./config shared , then copy the libs and headers into the required places.) + + |
