I have added the "wget / untar" steps to the README, and updated http://evergreen-ils.org/documentation/install/README_2_1_0.html accordingly. I didn't add a "cd path/to/source" step in this iteration; I understand the general intention but am not sure that that's a foolproof way of ensuring that the cp / configure / make / make install steps are all performed in the source directory, what with all of the su/sudo-ing going on. _______________________________________________ OPEN-ILS-DOCUMENTATION mailing list [email protected] http://list.georgialibraries.org/mailman/listinfo/open-ils-documentation
