Perhaps it would be simpler to create a small build script that installs the build dependencies, compiles and installs your applet.I am now compiling the hard way via the command line with a bunch of "pkg-config" statements in the gcc command. I guess I could write up a build.sh, but I would have liked to do it in a more "standard" way. As I said, I read several tutorials but none of them dealt with more than the basics. If you (or anyone else) knows about something else that could help me, I'd be happy to read it.
Have you found this online book on autotools? It is one of the best references online.
http://sources.redhat.com/autobook/autobook/autobook.html Also, I think the gtk/gtkmm tutorial also describes the use of autotools.
Alternatively, have you considered simply sending them the binary with a small install script? You can add an apt-get line to the script to install the dependencies.Mhmm..that's also an interesting idea. Can you point me towards any interesting online resource? -R
