Passepartout has so far been successfully built on Linux, FreeBSD and
Solaris systems. If you have other systems to add to that list, we
would very much like to know. We aim to make Passepartout as portable
as possible.


Requirements
------------

Make sure you have gtkmm-2.4.x, libgnomecanvasmm-2.6.x
(http://gtkmm.sourceforge.net), and libxml++ 1.0.x
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/libxmlplusplus/) properly installed
and that you are using at least gcc-3.2. You will need xsltproc
(http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/xsltproc2.html) and Ghostscript to run
Passepartout. The gv postscript viewer is recommended. If you want
Gnome support, then you will need libgnome and gnome-vfs.


Building and installing
-----------------------

You are strongly recommended to apply all patches available (if any)
for this release before building Passepartout.
If patches exist, they can be downloaded from
http://www.stacken.kth.se/project/pptout/files/.
Check http://www.stacken.kth.se/project/pptout/items.html for news.

./configure (--with-gnome if you want Gnome support)
make
make install

If GTK+, gtkmm, gdk-pixbuf, libsigc++, libxml2 or libxml++ is installed
in a nonstandard location, you may want to run configure as
"./configure APPLY_RPATH=1", otherwise the dynamic linker may have
trouble finding the libraries.

If pkg-config has trouble finding some of the packages, consider
setting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable.
