The K Desktop Environment

A.3. Compilation and installation

KSnapshot may be installed from the kdegraphics package either by installing a binary RPM or by compiling the source package.

A.3.1. Installing from RPMs

To install the kdegrahics package from a binary RPM you must be logged in as root. Assuming that the name of the RPM is filename.rpm, do the following at the command prompt:

 % rpm -ivh filename.rpm

Should you run into problems please report them to the KDE mailing lists.

A.3.2. Installing from source

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

 % ./configure
 % make
 % make install

Since KSnapshot uses autoconf and automake you should not have trouble compiling it.

Should you run into problems please report them to the KDE mailing lists.
