dkopp Installation

1. Download the tar file (dkopp-xx.tar.gz) to Desktop
2. Open a terminal window
3. $ cd Desktop                        # go to Desktop
4. $ tar -xzf dkopp-xx.tar.gz          # unpack tar to ./dkopp
5. $ cd dkopp                          # go there
6. $ make -B                           # build executable
7. $ su -c "make install"              # install files
8. $ make launcher                     # desktop and menu entry

Missing dependencies will cause error messages in step 6.
Install these from your repository and repeat step 6.

Step 7 installs application files in the default locations:
   /usr/local/bin/fotoxx             binary executable
   /usr/local/share/fotoxx/          icons, translations ...
   /usr/local/share/doc/fotoxx/      user guide, README ...
Root privileges are needed for step 7, so use su -c or sudo.

If $PREFIX is defined, files go there instead of /usr/local.
If $DESTDIR is also defined, files go to $DESTDIR$PREFIX.

To change the location, do the following before step 6 (make):
   $ export PREFIX=/your/location
If this is within your own directories, then root privileges
are not needed for step 7.

Step 8 is optional and installs a desktop launcher and a menu
entry. The package xdg-utils is needed for this, and also to 
use the application's help menu. This is part of the Linux
Standards Base (LSB) and is normally present by default. 

To run dkopp, the programs growisofs and either mkisofs or 
genisoimage are needed. These are normally included in Linux
distributions. If needed, use your package manager to install 
them. The program wodim is also recommended (currently used 
only to reset a hung DVD drive).

Please review the user guide before trying dkopp.

If you need to run dkopp as root, use sudo dkopp or gksu dkopp.
