<p>First, make sure that all the necessary requirements
(<a class="link" href="README.html" title="Building Cone" shape="rect">README</a>) are satisfied. See RPM instructions
below if building for Red Hat Linux. See additional notes below
for upgrade instructions. Otherwise:</p>
<div class="itemizedlist">
<ul type="disc">
<li>
<p>Download the Courier Socks 5 proxy client library from
<a class="ulink" href="http://www.courier-mta.org/download.php#sox" target="_top" shape="rect">http://www.courier-mta.org/download.php#sox</a>
and follow its installation instructions. Binary RPMs can
be built from the source code tarball by following the
procedure outlined in <a class="ulink" href="http://www.courier-mta.org/FAQ.html#rpm" target="_top" shape="rect">http://www.courier-mta.org/FAQ.html#rpm</a>
using the “<span class="quote">courier-sox-<em class="replaceable"><code>version</code></em></span>”
tarball, and installing the “<span class="quote">courier-sox</span>” and “<span class="quote">courier-sox-devel</span>” binary RPMs
afterwards.</p>
<p>This step can be omitted if Socks 5 support is not
required. <span class="application">Cone</span> will
compile without the Socks 5 proxy toolkit.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Download the source code tarball from <a class="ulink" href="http://www.courier-mta.org/download.php#cone" target="_top" shape="rect">http://www.courier-mta.org/download.php#cone</a>
and unpack it.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Set the appropriate environment variables if the
compiler or linker needs any custom command line flags.
Run “<span class="quote"><span class="command"><strong>./configure
--help</strong></span></span>” to list the
available environment variables that specify additional
arbitrary parameters for the C/C++ compiler.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Run “<span class="quote"><span class="command"><strong>./configure <em class="replaceable"><code>[options]</code></em></strong></span></span>”.
See below for a list of available options.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Run <span class="command"><strong>make</strong></span>.</p>
<div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;">
<h3 class="title">Note</h3>
<p>The GNU version of the <code class="literal">command</code> is required. On BSD systems

<li>

<p>Install or do not install a default set of trusted SSL
certificate authorities. When using SSL <span class="application">Cone</span> normally checks the server's
SSL certificate, which must be signed by a trusted
certificate authority. <span class="application">Cone</span>'s source distribution includes
the same list of trusted certificate authorities as the
<a class="ulink" href="http://www.mozilla.org" target="_top" shape="rect"><span class="application">Mozilla</span></a> browser. <span class="application">Cone</span>'s certificate list is installed
by default, unless <a class="ulink" href="http://www.courier-mta.org" target="_top" shape="rect"><span class="application">Courier</span></a> is
also installed, in which case <span class="application">Cone</span>'s default configuration points

<code class="filename">/usr/local/share/cone/rootcerts</code> (which
is derived from the <em class="parameter"><code>--datadir</code></em> default option,
as explained by <span class="command"><strong>./configure
--help</strong></span>). <em class="parameter"><code>--with-certdb=<em class="replaceable"><code>filename</code></em></code></em>
installs the trusted SSL certificate authority list in
the directory <em class="replaceable"><code>filename</code></em>. <em class="parameter"><code>--without-certdb</code></em> does not

<span class="application">Cone</span></h3>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<p>Upgrading <span class="application">Cone</span> consists
simply of building the new version, and installing it. The
new version will overwrite the previous version. Special
upgrade instructions are given below.</p>

<p>The address book format has changed in version 0.60. The
old address book format will be automatically converted to
the new format, when necessary, so no manual intervention
is necessary. If <span class="application">Cone</span> is
later downgraded to an earlier version, addresses in an
address book that contain non-English characters will not
be shown correctly.</p>

</div>
</div>
</div>
<p>Use the following procedure to build <span class="application">Cone</span>.</p>
<p>The first step is to create a work area for building RPMs.
Skip this step if an RPM build directory is already
configured.</p>
<pre class="programlisting" xml:space="preserve">
echo "%_topdir $HOME/rpm" > $HOME/.rpmmacros
mkdir $HOME/rpm
cd $HOME/rpm
mkdir SOURCES SPECS BUILD SRPMS RPMS
</pre>
<p>Finally, download the source code to <span class="application">Cone</span> from <a class="ulink" href="http://www.courier-mta.org/download.php#cone" target="_top" shape="rect">http://www.courier-mta.org/download.php#cone</a>. Do
not unpack the tarball. Execute “<span class="quote"><span class="command"><strong>rpmbuild -ta
cone-<em class="replaceable"><code>version</code></em>.tar.bz2</strong></span></span>”.
Two binary RPMs will be created: the main binary package
contains <span class="application">Cone</span>. The
“<span class="quote">devel</span>” package
contains the <span class="application">LibMAIL</span> library
and development files. It is only necessary to install the
main package to run <span class="application">Cone</span> the
“<span class="quote">devel</span>” subpackage is
only needed for additional development with <span class="application">LibMAIL</span> .</p>

<h3 class="title"><a id="id509514" shape="rect" name="id509514"> </a>CVS Source checkouts</h3>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<p>It is also possible to check out the source from CVS,
however additional requirements apply. Besides the usual
prerequisites for building <span class="application">Cone</span>, additional development software
must be installed. See the “<span class="quote">Download via CVS</span>” instructions at
<a class="ulink" href="http://www.courier-mta.org/status.html" target="_top" shape="rect">http://www.courier-mta.org/status.html</a>.
<span class="application">Cone</span> has the same
requirements as <span class="application">Courier</span> for
CVS builds (technically, <span class="application">Cone</span> does not need libtool, but that may
change in the future). Make sure that the prerequisite
software is installed, then check out the “<span class="quote"><span class="application">Cone</span></span>”
module from CVS, tagged at revision “<span class="quote"><span class="application">Cone</span>-latest</span>”. The
<code class="literal">HEAD</code> may be checked out, but
carries more of the usual risks.</p>
<p>After the module is checked out, run the <code class="filename">autobloat</code> shell script to rebuild the
autoconf/automake scripts.</p>
