Compilation and Installation

Unpack the sources of KBFX with (x.y.z-XXXXXXXX represents the version of the KBFX package, for example 0.4.9.3-20070117):
```
> tar xjvf kbfx-x.y.z-XXXXXXXX.tar.bz2
				
```
Change into the new directory:
```
> cd kbfx-x.y.z-XXXXXXXX/
				
```
Start the configuration and the compilation using the command:
```
> ./build.sh
				
```

Note for Mandriva < 2007 users:

The build script (by default) enables the use of menudrake instead of kmenuedit. If you want to prevent this behavior then pass ONE of these options to the build script: --menudrake-off OR -m

Other building options:

--prefix OR -p to install KBFX in a different than the default folder (default is KDE install folder) for example:
```
> ./build.sh -p /home/user
						
```
--strigi OR -s to enable Strigi support in KBFX (default is no Strigi support)
--verbose OR -v to make the build script give more verbose information
--nocheck OR -n to make the build script not to check if an old KBFX version is installed (default is to check)

Requirements

Using checkinstall
