			HOW TO INSTALL GALEON

	Galeon is a work in progress. This means that it will crash,
it won't work as expected and it may damage random files of your 
system. However, we encourage you to test it and report any bug you
find, and send us patches if you feel that you can help. You can go to 
http://galeon.sourceforge.net/ for more info.

	This are the steps to install Galeon:

1. Gnome libs installation
---------------------------

You need a full installation of the Gnome 2 libraries in order to
compile galeon. You can find more info about Gnome 2 at:

	http://www.gnome.org/start/2.0

2. Mozilla Installation
------------------------
	Galeon depends on Mozilla, so you have to have a working
Mozilla installed. If you can't start Mozilla there are very little
chances that you could run Galeon. 
	You can go to http://www.mozilla.org/ to get info about
Mozilla and about how to install it. 

At the moment the easier way to install a gtk2 mozilla that works with
galeon is:

- Download mozilla 1.2b source from http://www.mozilla.org
- Apply mozilla_12b_patch to the mozilla tree. You can find
  it in galeon package
- Compile mozilla using --enable-default-toolkit=gtk2
  (and as usual --disable-debug)
  If you want anti aliased fonts you have to use also
  the --enable-xft option.
  For example:
  ./configure --prefix=/opt/gnome --enable-default-toolkit=gtk2 --disable-debug --enable-xft
  make
  make install

We understand this is very complex, but unfortunately mozilla gtk2 port is not complete.
  
3. Galeon installation
-----------------------

- Checkout galeon cvs (head) from cvs.gnome.org
  See http://developer.gnome.org/tools/cvs.html
- Compile and install

  For example:
  ./autogen.sh
  ./configure --with-mozilla-snapshot=trunk
  make
  make install
  
NOTE: If your GNOME2 is installed through the Garnome system
then you will probably need to set your ACLOCAL_FLAGS
appropriately before running autogen.sh, e.g.

export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I $HOME/garnome/share/aclocal"

4. Starting Galeon
-------------------
	Type "galeon" in a terminal or select "Galeon" from your Gnome 
foot menu (it should be under Net, Internet or similar, depending of
your locale).
