COMPATIBILITY
|
|
|
|
This code is intended for use with Linux 2.6.xx, 3.x and
|
|
hopefully all future kernels.
|
|
|
|
INSTALLATION
|
|
|
|
If you are using git version of the project you need extra step.
|
|
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
|
|
After that, and everyone using .tar.xz version of procps-ng, can
|
|
do normal build. Read './configure --help' to select options for
|
|
your needs.
|
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
If you have DejaGNU installed you can run optional test suite.
|
|
|
|
make check
|

HOW TO CONTRIBUTE
|
|
|
|
See Documentation/BUGS file.
|
|
|
|
PACKAGING
|
|
|
|
If you are a downstream maintainer (packager) for a Linux
|
|
distribution, please avoid causing troubles. This section
|
|
applies to you.
|
|
|
|
Avoid maintaining distribution specific patches. Send your
|
|
patches to upstream, where they are at least reviewed, if not
|
|
included.
|
|
|
|
Please forward bug reports. If your bug database is public and
|
|
busy enough to bother with, please make this known. Follow
|
|
Debian's lead in making the bug database easy to comment on via
|
|
email without need for an account.
|
|
|
|
For normal packages, ensure that you do not add debugging flags
|
|
to the CFLAGS variable.
|
|
|
|
TRANSLATING MAN PAGES
|
|
There is a three-step process for translating man pages. Most
|
|
of the work happens in the man-po directory.
|
|
|
|
make -C man-po translate-templates
|
|
Creates the translation templates (the .pot files) for translators
|
|
to use as a base. These, along with the tar file, should be sent
|
|
to the tp-coorindator before release.
|
|
|
|
make get-trans
|
|
rsyncs the latest translated (.po) files for both the programs and
|
|
man pages.
|
|
|
|
make -C man-po translate-mans
|
|
This is also called in the dist-hook and is where the translation
|
|
magic happens. Take the original man page, the relevant .po file
|
|
and produce a translated man page in that language.
|
|
All of the man pages generated are found in
|
|
man-po/(LANG)/man(SECTION)/
