Building nsclient++ on linux

The quick version for Debian :)

1. Install some packages (including cmake, boost, and what not) I will update this later on.

   sudo apt-get install -y subversion-tools # Subversion
   sudo apt-get install -y build-essential  # Normal build tools
   sudo apt-get install -y cmake            # cmake build tool
   sudo apt-get install -y python           # Python is used by the build tool
   sudo apt-get install -y libssl-dev libboost1.42-all-dev python-dev libprotobuf-dev
   sudo apt-get install -y protobuf-compiler# Google protocol buffers compiler
                                            # A long list of libraries used by the program (some optional)
   # ... more to come
   

2. Create folder

   mkdir nscp
   cd nscp
   

3. Grab the source from subversion

   svn co http://svn.nsclient.org/nscp/trunk
   

4. Create build folder

   mkdir build
   cd build
   

5. Configure the project using cmake (repeat this a few times)

   cmake ../trunk
   

6. Build using make:

   make
   

7. Test

   nscp --test
   

Will add more information here later on...
