2 Installing BWM Tools
Before you can use BWM Tools, you must make sure you have all the
dependencies installed...
- glib2 >= 2.2.0
- libxml2 >= 2.5.0
- rrdtool >= 1.0.49 (required for graphing)
Next you need to download BWM Tools, compile it and install
it.
Here is step-by-step instructions on how to do this...
- Download the latest version of BWM Tools, the latest version can be
found on the project homepage: http://bwm-tools.pr.linuxrulz.org
- Uncompress the archive using either
tar jxvf <archive name>.tar.bz2
or tar zxvf <archive name>.tar.gz depending weather its a .tar.bz2
or .tar.gz respectively.
- Run ./configure in the source directory. Optionally a
--prefix=... parameter can be passed which will determine where
BWM Tools will be installed.
- Once the configure process is complete, issue a make command,
this will compile BWM Tools.
- When BWM Tools has finished compiling, type
make install. This
will by default install BWM Tools into /usr/local, unless of course
if you specified a --prefix=... above.
