You need +make (GNU or BSD; others may work), a C compiler (gcc, clang, and +even pcc will work). If you're going to modify the man page, you'll +need rst2man. If you're going to "make install", you need a GNU-style +install command, a mkdir command that accepts -p, and gzip. + +A simple "make && sudo make install" should work, if you're not +creating a package. Binary will go to /usr/local/bin, man page in +/usr/local/share/man1, README in /usr/local/share/doc/xdeadzone. + +If you're a packager, have a look at the top of the Makefile for +variables you can override. Paths don't get "baked in" to the binary, +so you only have to override them on the "make install". Don't include +this INSTALL file in your package; it's useless for binary package +users. -- cgit v1.2.3
