2: * determing source build procedure for
3: LON-CAPA-barcode-3.1-1.i386.rpm
4: Components:
5: + gd library
6: + GD perl module
7: + GD Barcode perl module
8:
9: Looking
10: at things for a bit, I've decided to go with the newer,
11: more powerful GD-Barcode perl module as opposed to
12: the Barcode-Code128 perl module.
13:
14: These are the installation instructions and sample
15: png images in case you are interested. These instructions
16: work for the RedHat-6.2/LON-CAPA development distribution.

18: wget http://www.boutell.com/gd/http/gd-1.8.4.tar.gz
19: tar xzvf gd-1.8.4.tar.gz
20: wget http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/GD/GD-1.33.tar.gz
21: tar xzvf GD-1.33.tar.gz
22: cd GD-1.33
23: cp patch_gd.pl ../gd-1.8.4
24: cd ../gd-1.8.4
25: perl patch_gd.pl
26: ./configure
27: make
28: make check
29: (as root)
30: make install
31: cd ../GD-1.33
32: perl Makefile.PL
33: Build JPEG support? [y] n
34: Build FreeType support? [y] n
35: Build XPM support? [y] n
36: make
37: make test
38: (as root)
39: make install
40: wget http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/GD/GD-Barcode-1.13.tar.gz
41: tar xzvf GD-Barcode-1.13.tar.gz
42: cd GD-Barcode-1.13
43: perl Makefile.PL
44: make
45: make test
46: (as root)
47: make install
48:
49: I am going to now calculate the installed files, ownerships, and
50: permissions, and make part of the LON-CAPA installation
51: (LON-CAPA-barcode-3.1-1.i386.rpm).
