HOW TO INSTALL READING PEOPLE TRACKER 1.27 on Fedora Core 1
Author: Richard Aik (a.k.a dragoncity99)


================
Packages Needed:
================
The following are the files that must be available under /root directory:
libavc1394-0.3.1-7.i386.rpm
libavc1394-devel-0.3.1-7.i386.rpm

====================
System Requirements:
====================
OS: Fedora Core 1 installed with complete set of "X development & libraries"
Reason: If your linux installation is with a "/usr/X11R6/LessTif/Motif1.2" directory. Im sure ur installation will be with lesser headache. (U could do a full blown installation if u dont wanna bother anything bout it)


(To make this simple, run the installation as root user, DONT DO IT ON A MISSION CRITICAL SYSTEM PLEASE.
Im not responsible for that if u really do so.)


============================
Section 1 Installing The RPM

1. rpm -ivh libraw1394-0.9.0-12.i386.rpm

Section 4 Install Reading People Tracker
========================================
1. cd /root/advisor/source
2. make depend (Note: lots of warnings...but just ignore it)
3. make
4. cd progs; make

Done, u have your binary under /root/advisor/bin directory


================================
Section 5 Running People Tracker
================================
Many ppl kept mailing me asking how to make it run, okay, i will put this in as well.
Here's how u should structure your config:

/root
|
advisor
|
|_ bin
|
|_ source
|
|_ CONFIG2
|
|_advisor
|
|_models
|
|_config
|
|_STIB.YZER


1. This is the structure. You could get the configuration example from:
http://www.ks.informatik.uni-kiel.de/~vision/doc/Publications/nts/config-example.tar.gz
2. Modify the "path" in all the configuration files to reflect your installation, put some pictures and you are done.[/b]

So sorry guys, i din't haf time to configure a sample to the RPT config to run previously.

Have been receiving lots of mail on this. I will try my best to come out a version on this config section. :p

I will need to update my How-To, which will take a bit of time. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Looking forward to have it included in TLDP soon if they approve me to do so.

I should be having it configured around this weekend (Malaysian date/time 2005-12-18 GMT+8.00)

Thanks to tangyi997 for her help in this again.
