1 For Debian the best thing to do is to do "apt-get install postal", if you don't 2 want to use the version supplied with your version of Debian you can build a 3 Debian package in the usual manner. 4 Change to the directory containing the unpacked source and use the command: 5 dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -tc -us 6 That will create a .deb in the parent directory. 7 8 For Red Hat etc there is a portslave.spec file to allow for building with 9 the "rpm -b" command. 10 11 For Solaris use the command "make -C sun" to build a package in /var/spool/pkg 12 (make sure you have write access to that directory). 13 14 For other Unix setup "./configure ; make install" should do an install.
