wmiirc-lua debianization
I just fixed the install scripts for wmiirc-lua. It is now possible to install wmiirc-lua in system directories and run from there. There is also a Wmii-lua session for the display managers (kdm, gdm, etc).
The new and improved way to install wmiirc-lua is to [get libixp and wmii from hg]{wmiirc-in-lua-v0.1.1} and then…
sudo apt-get install lua5.1 liblua5.1-0-dev liblua5.1-posix0 git-core
git clone git://repo.or.cz/wmiirc-lua.git/
cd wmiirc-lua
git checkout debian
make deb
sudo debi
install-wmiirc-lua
… restart X, and select Wmii-lua as your login session.
I have changed the semantics for make install
…
make install
- install in DESTDIR/PREFIX (seeconfig.mk
).make install-user
- install in~/.wmii-3.5/
.
If you chose to go with the install in system directories route, you should note that alt-a wmiirc
does not work
properly unless you have a ~/.wmii-3.5/wmiirc
. Running install-wmiirc-lua
gets you just that.
…
If you do decide to try it, I would like to hear from you. Let me know what I should add to the TODO list to make your wmii experience even better.
There is now an #wmiirc-lua
IRC channel on oftc.net.
