HOWTO

# gnome-doc-utils
# ===============
# I include several versions below, each one for a different major release
# of Gnome, but keep in mind that I only actually use the Gnome 2.16.x one.

# If you ever want to uninstall gnome-doc-utils, or clean up files from
# an old version before installing a new one, cd into the source directory,
# run 'make uninstall' (as root), remove the source directory, then remove
# the tarball.

# Prerequisites:
# Perl
# iconv
# gettext
# Python >= 2.0
# pkg-config
# libxml2 >= 2.6.12
# libxslt >= 1.1.8

# Install/update the XML::Parser perl module:
su -c "perl -MCPAN -e shell"
o conf make_install_arg UNINST=1
o conf prerequisites_policy follow
install Bundle::CPAN
install XML::Parser
exit
