See http://xbps.nopcode.org/ for information. To build this you'll need: - openssl (development package with static libs) - libarchive (development package with static libs, and all features built in: acl/attr, xz, bzip2 and zlib are REQUIRED to build the static binaries!) - proplib (development package with static lib), available at http://code.google.com/p/portableproplib - asciidoc (to build the manpages) Optionally to build the API documentation (enabled with BUILD_API_DOCS make(1) argument): - graphviz and doxygen. By default it will be installed into /usr/local, can be changed by setting PREFIX and DESTDIR vars as make(1) arguments. Just run "make" and "make DESTDIR=~/xbps install". Good luck!
