How To Install Weaver
Running Weaver without Instalation
If you wish to run weaver in a machine where you don't have the root password or don't want to install the framework, you can just download the source code, unpack it:
tar -xjf weaver-0.2.tar.bz2
cd weaver
and execute the weaver script inside the weaver directory or add the source directory in your PATH variable. Just keep the source directory structure intact.
Installing from the .DEB Package
The easiest way to install Weaver is downloading the DEB pachage here.
If your GNU/Linux distribution supports DEB packages, clicking in the package will open a new window. Then, click in the button "Install Package" and it's done. In some distribuions, there's no way to install DEB packages graphically, so you should use the following command (as root) in the command line:
dpkg -i weaver-0.2.deb
Installing from the Source
First install all the dependencies. If you use Debian or some derived distro (like Ubuntu), this can be done with the command:
apt-get install libx11-dev libvorbis-dev libasound2-dev libpng12-dev libfreetype6-dev libxext-dev
Then, get the last Weaver stable version:
Unpack the file and install Weaver with the following commands ("make install" must be run as root):
tar -xjf weaver-0.2.tar.bz2 cd weaver make install
The output should be something like this:
Testing dependencies...
Testing X11 libraries.....OK
Testing Math libraries....OK
Testing Vorbis libraries..OK
Testing ALSA libraries....OK
Testing PNG libraries.....OK
