See http://code.google.com/p/xbps for information. To build this you'll need: - pkg-config, zlib, openssl, libarchive[0] >= 2.8.0, confuse[1] >= 2.7. and optionally: - graphviz and doxygen (--with-api-docs) to build API documentation. - atf >= 0.15 (--with-tests) to build the Kyua test suite [2]. Just run ./configure && make && make install. By default PREFIX is set to `/usr/local', can be changed by setting --prefix. The DESTDIR variable is also supported for package managers. There are some more options that can be tweaked, see them with `./configure --help'. Good luck! [0] http://libarchive.github.com [1] http://www.nongnu.org/confuse [2] http://code.google.com/p/kyua
