Additional requirements for fotoxx: libfreeimage-dev,  ufraw,  exiftool

Installation Procedure
1. Download the tar file (xxxxx-N.N.tar.gz) to Desktop.
2. Open a terminal window and enter the following commands:
3. $ cd Desktop                       # go to Desktop
4. $ tar -xzf xxxxx-N.N.tar.gz        # unpack the tar file
5. $ cd xxxxx                         # go to unpacked files
6. $ make                             # build executable
7. $ sudo make install                # install files

Missing dependencies will cause error messages in step 6.
Install these from your repository and repeat step 6.

Step 7 installs the program files in the default location /usr/local.
Root privileges are needed, so use one of the following:
    $ sudo make install    (or)    $ su -c "make install"

If  $PREFIX  is defined, application files go there instead of  /usr/local.
If  $DESTDIR  is also defined, application files go to  $DESTDIR$PREFIX.

To change the install location, do the following before step 6 (make):
     $ export PREFIX=/your/location
If this is within your own directories, root privileges are not needed,
and step 7 can be simplified to:  $ make install

After all is done, you can delete the install files from the desktop.

Alternative (simpler) Installation Method
  1. Download to your desktop: installer32 (32-bit)  or  installer64 (64-bit).
  2. Make it executable: right-click, properties, permissions, check executable.
  3. Double-click installer. It should run on most recent flavors of Linux.
  4. Select which program to install and the rest is automatic.
The dependencies listed above must be present or the installation will not complete.
Run as yourself to install in your own directory, or run as root to install at /usr/local.

Uninstall (assuming install location /usr/local):
  $ rm -f /usr/local/bin/xxxxx 
  $ rm -R -f /usr/local/share/xxxxx
  $ rm -R -f /usr/local/share/doc/xxxxx
