Installation procedures for `send-pr'
If you receive `send-pr' as part of a larger software distribution, it
will be automatically installed when the full distribution is
installed. The `send-pr' directory, however, is easily installed by
itself by following these steps:
1. Unpack the distribution into a directory which we will refer to as
SRCDIR.
2. Edit the `Makefile' to reflect local conventions.
Specifically, you should edit the variable "prefix" to alter
the installation location. The default is '/usr/local'. All
files are installed under "prefix" (see below).
3. Run
make all install [ info ] install-info [ clean ]
from the "build directory". The targets mean the following:
all Builds `send-pr' and `install-sid'
install Installs the following:
send-pr into PREFIX/bin
install-sid into PREFIX/bin
send-pr.1 into PREFIX/man/man1
categories as PREFIX/lib/gnats/SITE
send-pr-el.in as PREFIX/lib/emacs/lisp/send-pr.el
info (optional) Builds "send-pr.info" from "send-pr.texi"
(send-pr.info is included with this distribution)
install-info Installs "send-pr.info" into PREFIX/info
clean (optional) Removes all intermediary build files that can
be rebuilt from source code
4. Run
install-sid SID
where SID is the submitter identification code you received with
`send-pr'. If you've downloaded `send-pr' from the Net, use "net"
for this value.
5. Any users who wish to use the Emacs version of `send-pr' must place
the following line in their ".emacs" files:
(autoload 'send-pr "send-pr" "Submit a Problem Report." t)
6. Create a mail alias for the support site you received `send-pr'
from, and for every site with which you wish to use `send-pr' to
communicate with, each with a suffix of `-gnats'. The support
site(s) will provide the correct addresses toward which these
aliases should point. For instance, edit your mail aliases file
to contain something like:
# support sites; for use with send-pr
cygnus-gnats: bugs@cygnus.com # Cygnus Support
bumblebee-gnats: bumblebugs@bumblebee.com # Bumblebee BASIC, Inc.
mycompany-gnats: bugs@my.company.com (if you use GNATS locally)
`send-pr' automatically searches for these aliases when you type
send-pr cygnus
send-pr bumblebee
send-pr SITE...
`send-pr' also uses SITE to determine the categories of bugs the site
in question accepts by looking in PREFIX/lib/gnats/SITE
7. That's it! See "send-pr.info", "send-pr.texi", and/or "send-pr.1" for
information on using `send-pr'.
