Introduction to ScrollKeeper

ScrollKeeper is a cataloging system for documentation on open systems. It manages documentation metadata (as specified by the Open Source Metadata Framework(OMF)) and provides a simple API to allow help browsers to find, sort, and search the document catalog. It will also be able to communicate with catalog servers on the Net to search for documents which are not on the local system.

Non-Multilib

Compile the package:

./configure --prefix=/usr \
    --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var \
    --disable-static --with-omfdirs=/usr/share/omf:/opt/gnome-1.4/share/omf:\
/opt/kde/share/omf:\
/opt/gnome/share/omf &&
make

Install the package

make install

Command Explanations

--sysconfdir=/etc: This switch puts the configuration files in /etc instead of /usr/etc.

--localstatedir=/var: This switch puts ScrollKeeper's database directory in /var/lib/scrollkeeper.

--disable-static: This switch prevents the static library from being built.

--with-omfdirs=...: This switch defines the locations of OMF files for ScrollKeeper. Change the locations if you have KDE and/or GNOME-2 installed in a prefix other than the ones shown. This information is stored in /etc/scrollkeeper.conf and can be updated manually, if necessary.

Multilib

/usr/bin/scrollkeeper-config is not wrapped because it does not contain any arch specific information
