How to install ucspilogd

Like any other piece of software (and information generally), ucspilogd comes with NO WARRANTY.

Requirements

System

A Unix-like system

Build-time

A standard C development environment
The skalibs package, version 0.47 or higher

Run-time

(recommended) The daemontools package, version 0.76 or later; or the runit package, version 0.12.1 or later.
(recommended) The ucspi-ipc package, version 0.63 or later.

Installation

ucspilogd follows the slashpackage convention.

Create a /package directory:

     mkdir -p /package
     chmod 1755 /package
     cd /package

Download the latest version of ucspilogd, ucspilogd-0.36.tar.gz, into /package.

Unpack the ucspilogd package:

     tar -zxpvf ucspilogd-0.36.tar.gz
     # if you do not have GNU tar, check with your gunzip and tar manual pages.
     rm ucspilogd-0.36.tar.gz
     cd admin/ucspilogd-0.36

If you want to use another compiler and linker than the default, edit conf-compile/conf-cc and conf-compile/conf-ld as needed.
If for some reason your slashpackage installation is in $prefix/package, for instance if you're not root, then unpack the ucspilogd package into $prefix/package and tell it about your prefix:
```
     echo $prefix > conf-compile/conf-sp_root
```
The build system will then install the software into a slashpackage tree residing in $prefix.
Note that this is not recommended, because it makes you lose the ability to hardcode paths into your scripts, which is the main benefit of a slashpackage installation.
Compile and set up ucspilogd:
```
     package/install
```
or perform package/compile to compile it, then look into the command subdirectory and copy the binaries where you need them.

To report success :

	 cat package/name package/version compile/export/sysdeps | mail ska-sysdeps@skarnet.org

You can then delete the compile subdirectory to save disk space.
