7 Installation instructions
10 The build system of gerbv is based on GNU Autoconf.
12 Simple build instructions would (currently) be:
17 To recreate the configuration files you have to run:
21 % automake --copy --add-missing
24 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
26 In order to build gerbv you must install the following packages first:
29 * GdkPixbuf can be configured out
30 * libpng can be configured out
33 If you don't want to have the possibility to export Gerber images to PNG
34 (and thus removing dependency on GdkPixbuf and libpng) you can run:
36 ./configure --disable-exportpng
38 The following switches are also available at configure time:
39 --with-maxfiles=<number> where <number> is how many files you want to have
40 open at the same time. Default is 20.
41 --enable-unit-mm if you want to default measurement units to millimeters.
44 If your make program is called gmake (for instance on Sun platforms) you
45 can run this by typing:
46 % MAKE=gmake ./configure
