[SOLVED] Install Goban Screensaver from source tarball

[Dennola4]

I apologize in advance for how basic this "problem" is:

I want to use this screensaver: http://draves.org/goban/goban-1.1.tar.gz from this site: http://draves.org/goban/

I extracted it to a build environment, checked the README for special instructions, opened a terminal in the build environment and ran $ ./configure, then $ make, then # make install. Didn't work.

Second time I ran src2pkg to make a .tgz which I installed as root with slack-installpkg . The install was successful, but when I tried to run /usr/bin/goban it said it couldn't read /usr/local/share/goban. There is no /usr/local/share/ (perhaps there used to be) so I created one with # mkdir /usr/local/share/. This also didn't work. I give up.

>>>> My question is: What is the easiest way to install this program on my system?

Thanks in advance.

Try with:

Code: Select all

./configure --prefix=/usr
make
make install

Also, from the src2pkg tutorial:

Notice that the --prefix option has been automatically filled-in for you. By default, src2pkg will use --prefix=/usr as we believe that 'best practices' almost always install *packaged* software under /usr.

Run 'make install' as root!

I did. Notice in the code I posted earlier that I first ran $ make install by mistake (obviously root permission is needed to make changes to /usr) but then immediately afterward ran # make install, yielding this message:

Code: Select all

Edit the Makefile and change the SCREENSAVER_DATADIR to:

Code: Select all

SCREENSAVER_DATADIR=/usr/share/xscreensaver/config

[Dennola4]

Ok,

that worked. The only other thing I had to do was edit ~/.xscreensaver by adding:

Code: Select all

              goban -root             \n\

which made it appear as an entry in the xscreensaver - demo. As always, thanks so much for your help.
