Manual installation

This article's content is incomplete or a placeholder stub. Please update or expand this section.

Installing Gramps on FreeBSD, openBSD, etc. First make sure the following packages are installed:

• py24-gnome
• py24-gnome-extras
• automake19
• gnomecommon
• autoconf259
• gnu-automake
• gnu-libtool
• gmake

Then do the following:

• Download and extract the source code:

$ gunzip gramps-3.2.6.tar.gz
$ tar xvf gramps-3.2.6.tar

• Configure the source code to use

  /usr/X11R6

  for its path, since that is where FreeBSD likes to put gtk/gnome stuff:

$ cd gramps-3.2.6
$ export PATH=/usr/local/gnu-autotools/bin:$PATH
$ export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I /usr/local/gnu-autotools/share/aclocal
         -I. -I /usr/local/share/aclocal -I /usr/X11R6/share/aclocal"
$ ./autogen.sh
$ gmake
$ gmake install

This will compile and install Gramps correctly.
