Installation
  • Binary installation using rpm
  • Typing 

              rpm -i package.rpm
    should install all binaries in 

              /usr/local .
    After this you can start lydian by calling 

              /usr/local/bin/lydian
workers
  • Binary installation from an tar archive
  • To proceed with the binary installation, you should have the following developers libraries installed:

              ncurses, and OpenMotif.

    You should download a gzipped tarfile containing the whole software package e.g. lydian-1.3.0.tar.gz.

    You can unpack the file by using

              gunzip filename
    and create a directory LYDIAN by using 

              tar xvf filename

    If you want to decide the installation path of the binaries (the default is /us/local) go to the root directory of the LYDIAN and use the command

              configure --prefix={install-dir}
    Then proceed with the installation by using 
              make install

    After installation a user can start LYDIAN by typing 

              {install-dir}/GUI/lydian
  • Installation from the sources
  • To proceed with the source installation, you should have the following developers libraries installed:

              LEDA, ncurses, and OpenMotif.

    You should download a gzipped tarfile containing the whole software package e.g. lydian-1.3.0.tar.gz.

    You can unpack the file by using

              gunzip filename
    and create a directory LYDIAN by using 

              tar xvf filename

    Go to the root directory of the LYDIAN and read carefully INSTALL.txt. The command

              configure --prefix={install-dir}
    specifies the location where LYDIAN should be installed. You can also see all options by typing 

              configure --help=recursive

    Then proceed with the installation by using 

              make
