HOWTO

# neon
# ====
# Slackware 12.0: neon 0.25.5
# Slackware 12.1: neon 0.26.4
# Slackware 12.2: neon 0.28.3
# Slackware 13.0: neon 0.28.4
# Slackware 13.1: neon 0.29.0
# Slackware 13.37: neon 0.29.5
#
# Also check their 'patches' directory too for updates

# Older versions of Slackware included neon in the 'subversion' package.
# If you have one of those older versions, you may want to remove the
# Subversion package before you begin below:
# su -c "removepkg subversion"

# Subversion uses neon.
# You used to have to be very picky about what version of neon you had
# installed for Subversion, but the latest Subversion (as I write this)
# says 0.25, 0.26, 0.27, or 0.28 are OK.

# If you ever want to uninstall neon, or just clean up files from an old
# version before installing a new one, skip down to the bottom for
# uninstall instructions.

# Other than Subversion, some other apps (that I have howtos for) that
# (can) use neon are:
# GnuTLS
# Licq
# net-snmp

# neon 0.29.6
# ===========
# Prerequisites:
# zlib
# pkg-config
# OpenSSL or GnuTLS (OpenSSL is the default, pass --with-ssl=gnutls to use it (if you have both))
# socks (optional)
# Kerberos (optional)
# libxml2 (pass --with-libxml2) or expat (expat is the default, pass --with-libxml2 to use it
#  (if you have both))
# EGD (Entropy Gathering Daemon; not needed if you have OpenSSL; pass --with-egd=path_to_socket)
