Presettings for a successfull compilation/installation of vbox:
|
|
|
|
- ncurses 1.9.9g (or higher),
|
|
- tcl 7.6b1 (or higher),
|
|
- kernel 2.0.30 with hisax 2.1 (or higher),
|
|
- isdn4linux with audio support enabled.
|
|
|
|
The above specified version numbers are matching the development environment
|
|
of vbox.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Extract the vbox archive using 'tar -xvzf vbox-x.y.z.tgz' and cd to its main
|
|
directory (x.y.z. must be replaced with the version number).
|
|
|
|
Before you start to compile you have to call './configure' to create a
|
|
Makefile, which matches your local environment. A './configure --help'
|
|
displays modifiable settings. Following options are relevant for vbox (the
|
|
default settings are specified in [] brackets):
|
|
|
|
--prefix=PREFIX Path in which the vbox directory tree will be
|
|
--exec-prefix=EPREFIX installed [/usr/local/vbox].
|
|
|
|
--sbindir=DIR Directory for vbox specific programs, which will
|
|
be launched by the super user only [EPREFIX/sbin].
|
|
|
|
--bindir=DIR Directory for programs used by all vbox users
|
|
[EPREFIX/bin].
|
|
|
|
--sysconfdir=DIR Directory, which will contain the vbox configs. You
|
|
can use the global isdn configuration directory if
|
|
you want [PREFIX/etc].
|
|
|
|
--with-spooldir=DIR Directory in which vbox users specific sub dirs will
|
|
be placed. These sub dirs will contain individual
|
|
vbox configs, recoreded and playable voice messages
|
|
[/var/spool/vbox].
|
|
|
|
--with-logdir=DIR Directory in which log files will be placed
|
|
[/var/log/vbox].
|
|
|
|
--with-piddir=DIR Directory, which contains the pids of the different
|
|
vboxgetty daemons [/var/run].
|
|
|
|
--with-lockdir=DIR This Directory contains the device locking files,
|
|
which will be created by the vboxgettys [/var/lock].
|
|
|
|
--with-i4lconfdir=DIR Directory, which contains the configuration files of
|
|
the i4l package. The config of vbox could also be
|
|
installed in this place (see --sysconfdir)
|
|
[/etc/isdn].
|
|
|
|
--with-tcllib=LIB Tcl library to use. Normaly, the configure script
|
|
scans for tcl8.0, then tcl7.6 and last for tcl. If
|
|
it can't find your tcl library you can use this
|
|
option to specify the name of the library [tcl].
|
|
|
|
--with-tcldir=DIR Tcl base directory to use. If configure can't find
|
|
your tcl includes or the tcl library you can use this
|
|
option to specify the base directory to search. The
|
|
directory must contain the subdirectories 'include'
|
|
and 'libs' [].
|
|
|
|
|
|
No other options than the above specified are used by the vbox package!
|
|
|
|
|
|
You could modify the Makefile after a successful call to './configure' to
|
|
your own liking, but the default settings should be sufficient.
|
|
|
|
You're able to start the compilation using 'make'. 'make install' will
|
|
create the neccessary sub dirs and install the executables and config.
|
|
No configuration file will be overwritten! If a old configuration file
|
|
exists, the new one is copied with the suffix '.new'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now you're ready to set up user specific configurations and voice messages.
|
|
For precise information about this topic see the manual. Please note that
|
|
the full documentation if available in german only!
|
|
|
|
Please read the manual carefully! There have been a number of changes since
|
|
version 2.0 of vbox. Your old config files are *not* compatibel and couldn't
|
|
therfore used any longer! Existing old voice messages must be converted to
|
|
the .au format, and afterwards converted to the new vbox format using
|
|
'autovbox'.
