Installing exrtools =================== This is the source code distribution of exrtools. Please check our website at http://scanline.ca/exrtools/ to see if there is a pre-packaged version of exrtools that you can use. Dependencies of exrtools ======================== exrtools requires at least version 1.0.6 of the OpenEXR library. Please see http://www.openexr.org/ for information on how to get and install OpenEXR. If you wish to install the exrtopng and pngtoexr applications, you must also have libpng installed. Please see http://www.libpng.org/ for information on this library. The jpegtoexr application requires that you have libjpeg installed. Information about libjpeg can be found at http://www.ijg.org/ Compiling exrtools ================== exrtools includes a configure script to enable you to customize your installation. By default, running configure without options will have exrtools install itself and all required files under /usr/local. To instead use paths according to the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard, we recommend you run configure with these options: ~/exrtools-0.4$ ./configure --prefix=/usr This will have exrtools use /usr/bin for its executables, Next, compile exrtools using make. ~/exrtools-0.4$ make And then, install it as root. ~/exrtools-0.4$ su /home/user/exrtools-0.4# make install Packaging exrtools ================== We are always interested in new exrtools packages to post on our webpage, and are more than willing to look over packagings to make sure that nothing is missing our possibly misconfigured. If you have made a package of exrtools, please let me know by emailing vektor@dumbterm.net.
