Installing |

The typical |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
# make |
| 7 |
% make install |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
should work. The `make` step is needed to compile the |
| 10 |
translations. |

|

Options that modify `make install` behaviour |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
LIBDIR |
| 15 |
The lib directory to be appended to PREFIX. Default: /lib |
| 16 |
PREFIX |
| 17 |
The installation prefix. Default: /usr/local |
| 18 |
|

Configuring |
| 21 |
----------- |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
You need to copy the gmail-sentinel.conf.sample file to your $HOME dir |
| 24 |
and rename it .gmail-sentinel.conf |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
The sample configuration file is well comment. An exception is the |
| 27 |
'path' option inside the "media" section. This path should point to |
| 28 |
the directory were the media files (images) are stored. The default |
| 29 |
value should be correct for any installation using the default LIBDIR |
| 30 |
and PREFIX values. If you modify the prefix value I'm sure you have |
| 31 |
enough knowledge to modify this path to the correct value. |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Your config file, for security reasons, should have 600 as permissions |
| 34 |
because store important information (username/password) as clear |
| 35 |
text. More permissions would allow other users to look at your file |
| 36 |
and get your username/passowrd. See bug #1[1] for more information |
