HOWTO

# libgtop 2.12.2 (for Gnome 2.12.x)
# ==============
# I remove the libgtop-2.0.mo internationalization files below because the
# only language that I read/write (well) is English. If this is not the
# case for you, skip that part.

# If you ever want to uninstall libgtop, or remove 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:
# grep
# gawk
# perl
# sed
# pkg-config
# glib >= 2.6.0
# popt
# gettext
# XFree86 or X.org
