Installation of fotoxx from source tarball

Building fotoxx requires the following packages:  
   g++                the Gnu C++ compiler and linker 
   libgtk3.0-dev      GTK3 graphics library (GUI base)
   libtiff*-dev       read/write tiff-8/16 image files
   libpng*-dev        read/write png-8/16 image files
   liblcms*-dev       change color space (sRGB/Adobe RGB)

At run time the following packages are also needed:
   exiftool           read/write metadata (EXIF etc.) 
   dcraw              convert camera RAW files to TIFF
   xdg-utils          LSB standard Linux utilities
   binutils           GNU binary utilities

The above are recent Debian names. Package naming is chaotic 
so you may have to to hunt down the names for your distro.

Build and install fotoxx as follows:
   1. Download the tar file (fotoxx-N.N.tar.gz) to Desktop 
   2. Open a terminal window 
   3. $ cd Desktop                      # go to Desktop 
   4. $ tar -xzf fotoxx-N.N.tar.gz      # unpack to ./fotoxx 
   5. $ cd fotoxx                       # go there 
   6. $ make                            # build program 
   7. $ sudo make install               # install program
  
Missing dependencies will cause error messages in step 6. 
Install these from your repository and repeat step 6. 
 
Step 7 moves all files to the following locations:
   /usr/bin/fotoxx             binary executable 
   /usr/share/fotoxx/          icons, translations ...
   /usr/share/doc/fotoxx/      README, man page ...

For step 7, use "sudo" or "su -c" for root privileges.

Please review the user guide (Help menu) before trying fotoxx.

NOTES FOR PACKAGE BUILDERS:
If $PREFIX is defined, files go there instead of /usr. 
If $DESTDIR is also defined, files go to $DESTDIR$PREFIX. 
exiftool (package name varies) must be version 8.60 or later.
Please do not move any files into a separate "documentation"
or "data" package. This would make Fotoxx non-functional.
