To install swim, become root and type "make install".
|
|
|
|
To install extra and important documentation, type "make installdoc".
|
|
|
|
To remove, type "make remove".
|
|
|
|
Pod documentation is found in Conf.pm and swim.pod if you want to make
|
|
different types of documention using pod translators. There are SGML
|
|
documents conforming to the debiandoc DTD for swimrc and swim which can be
|
|
converted using tools from the debiandoc-sgml package.
|
|
|
|
(The modules mentioned below can be located at CPAN at www.perl.com.)
|
|
|
|
Some distributions may require this module for ftp capabilities.
|
|
|
|
Net::FTP from libnet-perl
|
|
|
|
This module provides readline libraries. There are other similiar modules
|
|
which also work with Perl's Term::ReadLine(3pm).
|
|
|
|
Term::ReadLine::Gnu from libterm-readline-gnu-perl or
|
|
Term::ReadLine::Perl from libterm-readline-perl-perl
|
|
|
|
Also read QUICKSTART.text or QUICKSTART.html for additional information.

Alternative Installation
|
|
|
|
The modules are put into /usr/lib/perl5/SWIM because this is in Perl's
|
|
@INC path, and does not violate Debian's Policy, on the other hand the
|
|
modules are rather specific to swim, although they definitely could be
|
|
used for other things. To put it in /usr/lib meant either using 'use lib
|
|
"/usr/lib"' or pushing the alternative directory into @INC doing a
|
|
'BEGIN{}', or setting the Environment variable PERL5LIB. The first method
|
|
slowed swim down, the second method caused a bad bug in SWIM::Deb, and the
|
|
third method involved trying to make a universe of shells happy, but this
|
|
is the best approach for an alternative @INC path.
|
|
|
|
That's why there is Makefile.alternative. If you already did a 'make
|
|
install', now do a 'make remove'. Change the name of Makefile, and change
|
|
Makefile.alternative's name to Makefile. You can change PREFIX in this
|
|
Makefile to /usr/local if you want to. Follow the same steps as for the
|
|
original Makefile, but add one more step, set the Environment vaiable
|
|
PERL5LIB to the directory where the modules are. If the PREFIX was not
|
|
changed, and you are using a bash shell then 'export PERL5LIB=/usr/lib'.
|
|
|
|
This alternative Makefile uses the tradition /usr/doc, /usr/man
|
|
directories whereas the other Makefile uses /usr/share/doc and
|
|
/usr/share/man, this is because of Debian's adherence to the next
|
|
generation fsstnd.
