Following-up on discussions i had with Henri Bergius 
<henri.bergius at nemein.com>  at the recent  NTEN conference in Chicago 
- i'd like to share the following  install recipe that  I put 
together.

Among other things - it details how to  install Midgard on the Hoary 
Hedgehog release of Ubuntu Linux

do give it a try - and let me know how it goes. There are some 
ERRORS/BUGS which i've detected...not sure how to resolve them. 
Perhaps other may know ..  ?


regards

Robert

* Midgard - build from source

a. Get the development packages needed to build Midgard

  apt-get install gcc g++
  apt-get install php4-dev libmysqlclient12-dev
  apt-get install libglib1.2-dev libexpat1-dev flex
  apt-get install apache2-prefork-dev
  apt-get install apache-dev
  apt-get install dialog


b. build the midgard packages

apt-get source -b libmidgard

dpkg -i libmidgard_1.6.3-1_i386.deb
dpkg -i libmidgard-dev_1.6.3-1_i386.deb

apt-get source -b repligard
dpkg -i repligard_1.6.3-1_i386.deb


apt-get source -b libapache2-mod-midgard
dpkg -i libapache2-mod-midgard_1.6.3_i386.deb


apt-get source -b libapache2-mod-php4-midgard
dpkg -i libapache2-mod-php4-midgard_1.6.3_i386.deb


You are installing midgard support for php4, but it's not
enabled in your /etc/php4/apache2/php.ini.

To enable it you need to add this line:

extension=midgard.so
