About this README
------------------------------------------------------------
This README is intended to provide quick and to-the-point documentation for
technical users intending to compile parts of Guacamole themselves.
Distribution-specific packages are available from the files section of the main
project page:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/guacamole/files/
Distribution-specific documentation is provided on the Guacamole wiki:
http://guac-dev.org/

What is libguac?
------------------------------------------------------------
libguac is the core library for guacd (the Guacamole proxy) and any protocol
support plugins for guacd.
libguac provides efficient buffered I/O of text and base64 data, as well as
somewhat abstracted functions for sending Guacamole instructions.
------------------------------------------------------------
Compiling and installing libguac
------------------------------------------------------------
Please note that distribution-specific pre-compiled packages are available from
the files section of the main project site:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/guacamole/files/
libguac is built using the popular GNU Automake, and thus provides the standard
configure script.
1) Run configure
$ ./configure
Assuming all dependencies have been installed, this should succeed without
errors.
2) Run make
$ make
libguac will now compile.
3) Install (as root)
# make install
libguac will install to your /usr/local/lib directory by default. You can
change the install location by using the --prefix option for configure.
Several header files will also be installed to
/usr/local/include/guacamole.
You will need to run ldconfig (as root) so that the library can be found
when guacd is run:
# ldconfig
