4 To install the Wired tracker, you need the following prerequisites:

13 ============
14
15 To install the Wired tracker, follow these instructions:
16
17     1. Unpack the tarball:
18    
19          tar -xzf wired-tracker-X.X.tar.gz
20          cd wired-tracker-X.X.tar.gz
21    
22     2. Run the configuration script:
23    
24          ./configure
25        
26        This will install the Wired tracker into /usr/local by default. To
27        change this, instead run:
28        
29          ./configure --prefix=/path
30        
31        To change the default user the installation will write files as,
32        run:
33        
34          ./configure --with-user=USER
35      
36     3. Run make. Note, GNU make is required.
37    
38          gmake
39        
40     4. If make is successful, install the software:
41    
42          gmake install
43        
44        This will require write permissions to /usr/local/wired, or
45        whatever directory you set as the prefix above.
