[Xapian-discuss] omega for Red Hat 9

[Jim Lynch]

Be sure to copy the xapian list in your reply, since there are very 
helpfus and knowlegeable people on here.

First you must install the xapian-core which will install the xapian 
libraries that omega relies on.

To do that, extract the tar file
cd xapian-core.0.9.5
./configure
make
su
make install

That will install the needed libraries.  See the INSTALL file in that 
directory for more info.  If the ./configure step fails and you don't 
understand what it is telling you, copy the error message to an email to 
the list.

If it installs OK, then it is time to compile omega.

extract the omega tar file and cd to the omega directory and

./configure
make
su
make install

Again, look at the INSTALL file in this directory.

In general is is not a good idea to compile as super user.  Only do the 
install steps as su.  You can now run omega or configure it as you 
wish.  See the documents in the doc directory for additional info.
