The source code of Sylpheed is managed by CVS. You can get the newest source code with the anonymous CVS.

Refer to the manual and the book for more complete explanations.

Usage

First, set your CVSROOT environment variable to: :pserver: anonymous@sylpheed.good-day.net:/cvsroot/sylpheed (you can specify that with -d option).

  • csh or its derivation:

    setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anonymous@sylpheed.good-day.net:/cvsroot/sylpheed
  • sh or its derivation:

    export CVSROOT=':pserver:anonymous@sylpheed.good-day.net:/cvsroot/sylpheed'

Next, login with:

cvs login

and just press Enter key to `CVS password:'.

Move to an appropriate directory, and with the command:

cvs -z3 checkout sylpheed

a source tree named `sylpheed' is created under the current directory.

To update to the newest source tree, run the command:

cvs -z3 update

on the top directory of the source tree.

(To reduce the load of the network, please make sure -z3 is applied.)

The CVS tree doesn't include automatically created files, so you can't ./ configure as it is. To compile, you need autoconf, automake, libtool, gettext, imlib, gdk-pixbuf to be installed. If they are installed, required files are automatically generated by ./autogen.sh.
