+KMyMoney (covered by the GNU license - see COPYING)
+
+If you need some more information, please make sure to visit the projects
+homepage at http://kmymoney2.sourceforge.net/ A lot of information is
+found there.
+
+KMyMoney is a true KDE application and therefor requires the KDE as well as
+QT libraries. If you want to compile the application yourself, you have to
+make sure to have the development relevant parts (include files, link
+libraries) of these two projects. KMyMoney is based on min QT 3.2
+and KDE 3.2
+
+---------------------------------
+Prior to installation
+---------------------------------
+
+To compile, you will need the development headers for KDE libs and all additional
+you install (libofx, aqbanking, etc)
+Also, you will need the compile tools. This includes make and gcc
+
+Example for K/Ubuntu:
+
+sudo apt-get install kdelibs4-dev build-essential
+
+---------------------------------
+Compiling and installing KMyMoney
+---------------------------------
+
+1a) If you got the sources from CVS you will need to type:
+
+ make -f Makefile.dist
+
+ before you proceed. If you installed from a source tar-ball, you
+ don't have to run this command.
+
+1b) If you got the sources from a tar-ball you will need to type:
+
+ tar -xvjf kmymoney2-[version].tar.bz2 or
+ tar -xvzf kmymoney2-[version].tar.gz
+
+ depending if the packages was made with bzip2 or gzip compression.
+ Change into the directory with
+
+ cd kmymoney2-[version]
+
+
+The following steps have to be performed no matter where you got the source
+from.
+
+2) Run configure to tell the project about your local environment
+
+ ./configure --with-qt-dir=[your location of qt3] \
+ --prefix=[your location of kde3]
+
+ Debian/Ubuntu/Kubuntu/... users have to prepend the call to
+ configure with a variable setting to be able to view the online
+ manual from within the application. If you have such a system,
+ please use the following command syntax:
+
+ kde_htmldir=/usr/share/doc/kde/HTML ./configure ---with....
+
+ Below, please find a table of values for the above for several
+ distributions:
+
+ Distribution | --with-qt-dir | --prefix
+ ------------------+-------------------------+---------------------------
+ SuSE >= 8.1 | omit this parameter | ommit this parameter
+ Mandrake 9.0 | omit this parameter | /usr
+ Slackware >= 9.0 | omit this parameter | /opt/kde
+ MEPIS | omit this parameter | /usr
+ RedHat 8/9 | omit this parameter | /usr
+ Fedora 1/2 | omit this parameter | /usr
+ Mandriva 2006 | omit this parameter | /usr
+ Debian | omit this parameter | omit this parameter
+ K/X/Ubuntu | omit this parameter | omit this parameter
+
+ so for SuSE 9.1 the command is:
+
+ ./configure --mandir=/usr/share/man
+
+ and for Debian/Ubuntu the command is:
+
+ kde_htmldir=/usr/share/doc/kde/HTML ./configure
+
+ Please tell us the values for other distributions, so we can add
+ them to this list. Send an e-mail to the developers mailing list.
+ See the address below.
+
+3) Build the package by issuing the following command:
+
+ make
+
+4) Gain root permissions to install the application
+
+ Type the command
+
+ su
+
+ and provide the necessary password to become 'root'.
+
+ (You can skip this step and step 6 if your distribution uses sudo, and just prefix
+ sudo the command in the next step. eg, sudo make install)
+
+5) Install the application
+
+ Run the command
+
+ make install
+
+ to populate the directories in the KDE directory tree.
+
+6) Revert to normal user
+
+ Type
+
+ exit
+
+ to become the normal user again. This concludes the installation
+ process of KMyMoney.
+
+
+
+
+
+Please read INSTALL for generic instructions on how to use configure.
+
+AND/OR
+
+Get KDevelop and use the supplied kmymoney2.kdevprj located in the
+base directory. For more information on KDevelop please visit
