Installation Instructions for fotox

For end users who download and install the tar file, here is the 
procedure to follow (package makers please look below).

1. Download the tar file (fotox.xx.tar.gz) to Desktop
2. Open a terminal window
3. $ cd Desktop                        # go to Desktop
4. $ tar -xzf fotox.xx.tar.gz          # unpack tar to ./fotox
5. $ cd fotox                          # go there
6. $ ./build both                      # build and install

Missing dependencies (if any) will be listed in step 6.
Install these from your repository and repeat step 6.

You will be asked where to install the application files. Accept 
the standard locations with ENTER or input your own preferences.

The standard file locations are as follows:
   /usr/bin/fotox             binary executable
   /usr/share/fotox/          icons, config, translations ...
   /usr/share/doc/fotox/      user guide

The standard locations require root privileges, so use 'su'
or 'sudo' for step 6. If you choose to install within your 
own directories, root privileges are not needed.

A desktop launcher will be created if not already present. 
Delete if not wanted.

The program exiv2 is used to read the EXIF data that is commonly
imbedded in images from digital cameras (exposure data, date ...).
If you want access to this data, you need to install the exiv2 
package. Otherwise the fotox EXIF function will simply not work.

Note: the "parameters.txt" was renamed to "parameters" (v.35). 
Rename your file to continue using it.

Please review the user-guide before trying fotox.

PACKAGE MAKERS: the script works as follows:
   $ build build        #  build only
   $ build install      #  install only (after build)

If $PREFIX is defined beforehand then application files 
go automatically to standard locations under $PREFIX.
If not, file locations are queried interactively.
