Installing exrtools
===================

This is the source code distribution of exrtools.  Please check our
website at http://scanline.ca/exrtools/ to see if there is a
pre-packaged version of exrtools that you can use.

Dependencies of exrtools
========================

exrtools requires at least version 1.0.6 of the OpenEXR library.  Please
see http://www.openexr.org/ for information on how to get and install
OpenEXR.

If you wish to install the exrtopng and pngtoexr applications, you must
also have libpng installed.  Please see http://www.libpng.org/ for
information on this library.

The jpegtoexr application requires that you have libjpeg installed.
Information about libjpeg can be found at http://www.ijg.org/

Compiling exrtools
==================

exrtools includes a configure script to enable you to customize your
installation.  By default, running configure without options will have
exrtools install itself and all required files under /usr/local.  To
instead use paths according to the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard, we
recommend you run configure with these options:

  ~/exrtools-0.4$ ./configure --prefix=/usr

  This will have exrtools use /usr/bin for its executables,

  Next, compile exrtools using make.

  ~/exrtools-0.4$ make

  And then, install it as root.

  ~/exrtools-0.4$ su
  <enter password>
  /home/user/exrtools-0.4# make install

Packaging exrtools
==================

We are always interested in new exrtools packages to post on our
webpage, and are more than willing to look over packagings to make sure
that nothing is missing our possibly misconfigured.  If you have made a
package of exrtools, please let me know by emailing vektor@dumbterm.net.
