----

== Introduction to LessTif ==
The LessTif package contains an Open Source version of OSF/Motif®.

== Dependencies ==

=== Required ===
* [[X Window System]]
=== Optional ===
* [[Lynx]] or [[Links]]
* [[Dmalloc]]

== Non-Multilib ==

Compile the package:

patch -Np1 -i ../lesstif-0.95.0-c++_fixes-1.patch
sed -i -e 's:-L$L/lib:-L@libdir@:' \
-e 's:-L/usr/X11R6/lib:$XL:' \
scripts/motif-config.in &&
./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-debug \
--enable-production --with-xdnd &&
make rootdir=/usr/share/doc/lesstif-{{LessTif-Version}}

Install the package

make rootdir=/usr/share/doc/lesstif-{{LessTif-Version}} install

=== Command Explanations ===

--disable-debug: Do not generate debugging information.

--enable-production: Build the release version of the LessTif libraries.

--with-xdnd: Enable XDND GNOME compatibility support.

rootdir=/usr/share/doc/lesstif-{{LessTif-Version}}: This installs the documentation into an appropriate directory instead of the non-FHS compliant /usr/LessTif directory.

'''mv -v /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/mwm /etc/X11''': The mwm configuration directory is moved to its proper FHS location in /etc/X11.

'''ln -v -s ../../../../etc/X11/mwm /usr/X11R6/lib/X11''': A symlink required by some legacy applications is created pointing to the mwm configuration directory moved in the previous command.

== Introduction to HAL ==

<Package Description Needed>

== Dependencies ==

As of '''hal-0.5.8''' libvolume_id.so (From Udev) is a required dependency. On multilib systems you must have more then one copy of this library, (32bit,64bit,N32). Please refer to the [http://cross-lfs.org/view/svn/ clfs-svn] book for information on configuring a multilib udev. '''''WARNING: Installing a newer or older version of udev then what is currently installed on your system can cause problems booting because of the frequent changes in the rules format.''''' Please use the same version you currently have, or make the appropriate changes/upgrades to your rule set.

=== Required ===
* [[D-BUS Glib]]
* [[Glib2]]
* [[PolicyKit]]
* [[Python]]
* [[Perl_Module_XML::Parser]]

=== Recommended ===
* [[PCI Utilities]]
* [[usbutils]]
=== Optional ===
* [[Parted]]==1.7.1
* [[Acpid]]
* [[Expat]]
* [[libusb]]
* [[Doxygen]]
* [[DocBook Utils]]
* [[intltool]]
* [[Gtk-Doc]]

== HalDaemon User/Group ==

groupadd -g 19 haldaemon &&
useradd -c "HAL Daemon User" -d /dev/null \
-u 19 -g haldaemon -s /bin/false haldaemon

== Configuration Information ==

If you have [[Parted]] installed and you would like to link HAL against libparted pass the following to configure:

--enable-parted

Note that this version of HAL specifically looks for Parted-1.7.1.

== Non-Multilib ==

Compile the package:

./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--libexecdir=/usr/lib/hal --localstatedir=/var &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
install -v -m755 -d /var/run/hald

=== Command Explanations ===

''--libexecdir=/usr/lib/hal'': This parameter forces the installation of libexec files to /usr/lib/hal instead of /usr/libexec.

''--localstatedir=/var'': This parameter forces the creation of the pid file to /var/run/hald instead of /usr/var/run/hald.

== Multilib ==

=== 32Bit ===

Compile the package:

export USE_ARCH=32 &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH32}" \
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--libexecdir=/usr/lib/hal --localstatedir=/var &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
unset USE_ARCH

=== N32 ===

export USE_ARCH=n32 &&
CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATHN32}" \
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libdir=/usr/lib32 \
--libexecdir=/usr/lib/hal --localstatedir=/var &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
unset USE_ARCH

=== 64Bit ===

export USE_ARCH=64 &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" PKG_CONFIG_PATH="${PKG_CONFIG_PATH64}" \
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libdir=/usr/lib64 \
--libexecdir=/usr/lib/hal --localstatedir=/var &&
make

Install the package

make install &&
unset USE_ARCH &&
install -v -m755 -d /var/run/hald

== Configuration ==

=== Bootscript ===

Install the bootscript from the [[blfs-bootscripts]] package with the following command:

make install-haldaemon
