Dependencies
G-Wrap depends on: In addition, if you build G-Wrap for Guile-Gnome and Guile-Clutter, which is most probably the case, you also need:- Glib-2.0
Quickstart
The latest release is g-wrap-1.9.15.tar.gz, with its GPG binary signature . Other releases are available here.
Once all dependencies are statisfied, open a terminal and:
- cd <download-path>
- tar zxf g-wrap-1.9.15.tar.gz
- cd g-wrap-1.9.15
- ./configure [--prefix=/your/prefix]
- make
- make install
Notes
- In the above configure step,
--prefix=/your/prefix
is optional. The default value is/usr/local
. - To install G-Wrap, you must have write permissions to the
$prefix
dir and its subdirs. - G-Wrap's modules will be installed in
$prefix/share/guile/site
. If it differs from Guile's global site directory, then this path must be aded to Guile's load paths before to use G-Wrap and compile Guile-Gnome or Guile-Clutter. You may check Guile's values using:- guile -c "(display (%global-site-dir)) (newline)"
- guile -c "(display %load-path) (newline)"
To augment Guile's load paths, you can: (a) create/update your personnal
~/.guile
file, (b) update Guile's global site locatedinit.scm
file or (c) define/update your GUILE_LOAD_PATH shell environment variable. - Like for any other GNU Tool Chain compatible software, you may
install the documentation locally using
make install-info
,make install-html
and/ormake install-pdf
