| # libtasn1 |
| |
| This is GNU Libtasn1, a small ASN.1 library. |
| |
| The C library (libtasn1.*) is licensed under the GNU Lesser General |
| Public License version 2.1 or later. See the file COPYING.LIB. |
| |
| The command line tool, self tests, examples, and other auxilliary |
| files, are licensed under the GNU General Public License version 3.0 |
| or later. See the file COPYING. |
| |
| ## Building the library |
| |
| We require several tools to build the software, including: |
| |
| * [Make](https://www.gnu.org/software/make/) |
| * [Automake](https://www.gnu.org/software/automake/) (use 1.11.3 or later) |
| * [Autoconf](https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/) |
| * [Libtool](https://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/) |
| * [Texinfo](https://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/) |
| * [help2man](http://www.gnu.org/software/help2man/) |
| * [Tar](https://www.gnu.org/software/tar/) |
| * [Gzip](https://www.gnu.org/software/gzip/) |
| * [Texlive & epsf](https://www.tug.org/texlive/) (for PDF manual) |
| * [GTK-DOC](https://www.gtk.org/gtk-doc/) (for API manual) |
| * [Git](https://git-scm.com/) |
| * [libabigail](https://pagure.io/libabigail/) (for abi comparison in make dist) |
| * [Valgrind](https://valgrind.org/) (optional) |
| |
| The required software is typically distributed with your operating |
| system, and the instructions for installing them differ. Here are |
| some hints: |
| |
| gNewSense/Debian/Ubuntu: |
| ``` |
| sudo apt-get install make git-core autoconf automake libtool |
| sudo apt-get install texinfo texlive texlive-generic-recommended texlive-extra-utils |
| sudo apt-get install help2man gtk-doc-tools valgrind abigail-tools |
| ``` |
| |
| The next step is to run autoreconf, ./configure, etc: |
| |
| ``` |
| $ ./bootstrap |
| ``` |
| |
| Then build the project normally: |
| |
| ``` |
| $ make |
| $ make check |
| ``` |
| |
| Happy hacking! |
