 python-lxml python-argparse python-setuptools libxerces-c-dev \
 libperl-dev bison flex libxml2-utils imagemagick

On a Debian based system such as Ubuntu, you can use the suggested apt-get install commands to install the required packages.

Installation methods

To install install the last release of Sesame you only need to specify the installation directory:

./setup_sesame.sh -p /path/to/my/install/directory

If you need the latest version of the source you will have to install Sesame from the git repository. The flags r, R and s select the repository and the transport protocol to use. If you don't have an account you should use the public git repository:

./setup_sesame.sh -r -p /path/to/my/install/directory

If your public key has been registered you can install Sesame with the command:

./setup_sesame.sh -Rs -p /path/to/my/install/directory

To install via https with an account name and password, use the command:

./setup_sesame.sh -R -p /path/to/my/install/directory

Additional parameters for the configure script of sesame are set in the environment variable SES_EXTRA_CONFIG. To let configure use a different version of the xercesc library you would use:

export SES_EXTRA_CONFIG="--with-xercesc=/home/myhomedir/local"
