In order to be able to build from the git repository (working directory), some
2 
files need to be (re-)generated.
3 





4

Note that these generated files will be shipped with "make dist",





5

so the end user will not need these packages.

7

The prerequisite packages are:





8






9

- GNU autoconf >= 2.60





10

- GNU automake >= 1.8





11

- GNU gettext >= 0.14.3





12

- GNU m4





13

- bison or yacc





14

- flex or lex





15






16

On FreeBSD, install the gnu-autoconf and gnu-automake ports





17

and add /usr/local/gnu-autotools/bin to your PATH.





18






19

After you have everything installed, type:





20






21

$ ./autogen.sh





22






23

This will take a while and may print a lot of messages containing





24

"warning: unquoted definition of..." which are harmless.





25






26

After that, build as usual, with





27






28

$ ./configure --with-ssl           # pick options as needed





29

$ make





30

(become root)





31

# make install-strip
