      1 The following steps assume all dependencies are installed.
      2 
      3 First, unpack the Anastasis tarball and change into
      4 the resulting directory.
      5 Then, use the following commands to build and install Anastasis:
      6 
      7 .. code-block:: console
      8 
      9      $ ./configure [--prefix=PFX] \
     10                    [--with-gnunet=GNUNETPFX] \
     11                    [--with-exchange=EXCHANGEPFX]
     12      $ # Each dependency can be fetched from non standard locations via
     13      $ # the '--with-<LIBNAME>' option. See './configure --help'.
     14      $ make
     15      # make install
     16 
     17 If you did not specify a prefix, Anastasis will be installed to
     18 ``/usr/local``, which requires you to run the last step as ``root``.
     19 
     20 You have to specify ``--with-exchange=/usr/local`` and/or
     21 ``--with-gnunet=/usr/local`` if you installed the exchange and/or
     22 GNUnet to ``/usr/local`` in the previous steps.
     23 
     24 Depending on the prefixes you specified for the installation and the
     25 distribution you are using, you may have to edit ``/etc/ld.so.conf``, adding
     26 lines for ``GNUNETPFX/lib/`` and ``EXCHANGEPFX/lib/`` and ``PFX/lib/``
     27 (replace the prefixes with the actual paths you used). Afterwards, you should
     28 run ``ldconfig``. Without this step, it is possible that the linker may not
     29 find the installed libraries and launching the Anastasis backend would
     30 then fail.
