2.3 Compilation and installation

In order to compile and install Kpp on your system, type the following in the base directory of the Kpp distribution:

% ./configure
% make
% make install

Alternately one could build the RPM. To do this first unpack the archive. Then copy the kpp.spec file to your SPEC directory, the kpp.xpm to your SOURCE directory and the tar.gz archive to your SOURCE directory. Then you will be able to build the RPM from the spec file by doing the following:

% rpm -ba kpp.spec
From within the SPEC directory. This will cause new src rpms and binary RPMS to be built.

Since Kpp uses

autoconf
you should have not trouble compiling it. Should you run into problems please report them to the the author at ian geiser
