TMDA Installation

Installation from gzipped tarball

Choose an installation location which can either be an individual area (such as within your home directory), or a shared area (such as /usr/local) for system-wide use, and change to that directory.

  1. Unpack the TMDA distribution.
    
    # gunzip -c tmda-0.01.tgz | tar xvf -
    
    
  2. If this is a system-wide install, run the compileall script to byte-compile all the .py files. Byte-compilation is optional, but will speed TMDA's start-up time. This will be done automatically by Python if you have write permissions in the installation directory, which is why it's not necessary for individual installs.
    
    # cd tmda-0.01
    # ./compileall
    
    
Installation from Linux RPMs

If you are running Linux, you may wish to install a TMDA package instead. Both a "binary" RPM for RedHat-7.x and source RPM are available.

  • RedHat-7.x RPM:
    
    # rpm -Uvh tmda-0.01-1.noarch.rpm
    
    
  • source RPM:
    
    # rpm --rebuild tmda-0.01-1.src.rpm
    # rpm -Uvh /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/noarch/tmda-0.01-1.noarch.rpm
    
    
Post-Installation

Report your installation (used only to satisfy my curiosity):
# ( python -c 'from TMDA.Version import *; print ALL' ) \
  | mail jason-tmdausage@mastaler.com
Then proceed to the Configuration section.
