directory), or a shared area (such as /usr/local) for system-wide use, and change to that directory.<br><br> <ol> <li>Unpack the TMDA distribution.<br> <blockquote><pre> # gunzip -c tmda-0.01.tgz | tar xvf - </pre></blockquote> <li>If this is a system-wide install, run the <strong>compileall</strong> script to byte-compile all the .py files. Byte-compilation is optional, but will speed TMDA's start-up time. This will be done automatically by Python if you have write permissions in the installation directory, which is why it's not necessary for individual installs. <blockquote><pre> # cd tmda-0.01 # ./compileall </pre></blockquote> <li>TMDA is designed to run directly from its source directory. For example, if installed in /usr/local/tmda-0.01/, you'd run <b>tmda-keygen</b> by invoking <code>/usr/local/tmda-0.01/bin/tmda-keygen</code>. Do not move the bin/* programs outside the source tree, although making symlinks from other areas of the filesystem (such as /usr/local/bin) into the source tree will work fine. </ol> <u>Installation from Linux RPMs</u><br><br> If you are running Linux, you may wish to install TMDA via RPM instead. A binary RPM can be built and installed directly from the source tarball: <blockquote><pre> # rpmbuild -tb tmda-0.01.tgz # rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/noarch/tmda-0.01-1.noarch.rpm </pre></blockquote> If your system lacks a <b>/usr/bin/python2</b>, you may get a dependency warning from RPM. If you're sure your Python meets the <a href="requirements.html">requirements</a>, then you can override this dependency check using the <em>--nodeps</em> option to RPM: <blockquote><pre> # rpmbuild -tb --nodeps tmda-0.01.tgz # rpm -Uvh --nodeps /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/noarch/tmda-0.01-1.noarch.rpm </pre></blockquote> <u>Post-Installation</u><br><br> Report your installation (used only to satisfy my curiosity about what platforms are using TMDA): <blockquote><pre> # tmda-keygen -V | mail jason-tmdausage@mastaler.com </blockquote></pre> Then proceed to the <a href="config.html">Configuration</a> section. <br><br> </td><!-- end of body cell --> </tr><!-- end of sidebar/body row --> </table><!-- end of page table --> </body></html>
