Notes for building and installing Search Monkey on Unix with KDE Desktop
1. Download and install KDE & Qt development libraries (packages libkde4-devel and libqt4-devel)
2. Open a command line window and navigate into the searchmonkey source directory.
3. Type following commands to build the application:
# qmake CONFIG+=release LIBDIRSUFFIX="64"
# make
# make install (or # sudo make install if not currently logged in as root)
Note: You should add define of LIBDIRSUFFIX variable only if You use x64 kernel. In x32 kernel just type:
# qmake CONFIG+=release
instead of
# qmake CONFIG+=release LIBDIRSUFFIX="64"
4. Now you can launch the searchmonkey application from the "release" folder, which has been placed in the parent
folder of the sources directory.
5. If the built application is to be installed on other pc's copy the searchmonkey executable plus the contents of the
plugin subdirectory to (for eaxmaple) /usr/local/bin/ and the four libmimedb.so* files to /usr/lib/
