Installation ============ This program requires GTK+ 1.2.6 or higher to be compiled. This program is developed on Debian GNU/Linux (woody/sid) (Linux 2.4.x + glibc 2.2), so it is possible not to work correctly on the other environment. It is confirmed to work on the following environments: o Debian GNU/Linux (woody/sid) (glibc 2.2.x) o Kondara MNU/Linux (glibc 2.1.x) o Vine Linux 1.1 (glibc 2.0.x + libwcsmbs) o Vine Linux 2.0 (glibc 2.1.x) (Intel, PPC) o Vine Linux 2.1 o Laser5 Linux 6.0 (glibc 2.1.x) o Laser5 Linux 6.2 (glibc 2.1.x) o Laser5 Linux 6.4 (glibc 2.1.x) o TurboLinux 4.0 (glibc 2.0.7 + libwcsmbs) o TurboLinux 6.0 (glibc 2.1.2) o Miracle Linux Standard Edition Version1.0 o Miracle Linux for PostgreSQL Version1.0 o Miracle Linux for Samba Version1.0 o RedHat Linux 5.2 (glibc 2.0.7) o RedHat Linux 6.0 o RedHat Linux 6.1 + Helix GNOME (glibc 2.1.x) o RedHat Linux 6.2 / 6.2J (glibc 2.1.x) o RedHat Linux 7.0 / 7.0J o RedHat Linux 7.1 o LinuxPPC2000 + Yukikaze(Japanization kit) o Linux2000G (Intel / PPC) o HOLON Linux 2.0 (Intel / PPC) o Linux for PPC Japanese Edition 2.0 (glibc 2.1.x) o Linux for PPC Japanese Edition 3.0 (glibc 2.1.x) o Linux MLD4 o Linux MLD5 o Plamo Linux 2.0 o Slackware 7.1 o Linux Mandrake 7.0 o Linux Mandrake 7.1 o Linux Mandrake 7.2 o Linux Mandrake 8.0 o SuSE Linux 6.3 (glibc 2.1.2) o SuSE Linux 6.4 o SuSE Linux 7.0 o SuSE Linux 7.1 o SuSE Linux 7.2 o OpenLinux 2.3 (glibc 2.1.1 -> 2.1.3) o Caldera OpenDesktop 2.4 o Conectiva Linux 4.0 o Conectiva Linux 5.0 o Vector Linux 1.5 o FreeBSD 3.2-RELEASE o FreeBSD 3.4-RELEASE o FreeBSD 4.0-RELEASE o FreeBSD 4.1-RELEASE o FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE o FreeBSD 5.0-CURRENT o NetBSD 1.4.2 o NetBSD 1.5 + XPG4DL o NetBSD 1.5.1 o OpenBSD 2.7 o OpenBSD 2.8 (i386) o OpenBSD 2.9 o BSD/OS 4.0.1 o Solaris 2.5 o Solaris 2.5.2 o Solaris 2.6 o Solaris 7 o Solaris 8 o IRIX 6.3 o IRIX 6.5 6.5.8m o HP-UX 10.20 o Tru64 Unix 5.0 (OSF1 V5.0) o SCO UnixWare 7 o Mac OS X (Darwin 1.3) + Xtools (has locale problem) o Windows (cygwin + GTK+ for win32) (unstable) For installation, just type: % ./configure % make % su Password: [Enter password] # make install I recommend you to install gdk-pixbuf or gdk_imlib library before installing for built-in image view support, and libcompface for X-Face support. If you want to enable IPv6 support, append the option --enable-ipv6 after ./configure. If you want to enable GnuPG support, you need GPGME 0.2.1 or later, and GnuPG 1.0.4f or later. You can get them from the following location: ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/pub/gcrypt/alpha/gpgme/ ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/pub/gcrypt/devel/ and append the option --enable-gpgme after ./configure. WARNING: the GnuPG support is still in the development stage, and it may not work correctly. I suggest never to use a real key. Please use sample keys. If the installation of Sylpheed failed, check all needed libraries are correctly installed. If it still failed, please send bug report to: Hiroyuki Yamamoto
