If you want to build the manpage, you will need [ronn] 1. Debian 7.0 and above come with a package, so do most Debian clones.
To install ronn on your Debian-based system, simply run
apt-get install ruby-ronn
There are no other dependencies other than git, ronn and a POSIX shell.
sudo make install
make install DESTDIR=/home/myuser/local
or simply copy the shell script into any place you like, e.g. ~/bin
sudo make uninstall
There is another, more thorough, version. Just make sure you are not running this when you have installed to an important directory which is empty, otherwise.
THIS WILL DELETE /usr/local IF YOU INSTALLED THERE AND IT BECOMES EMPTY
sudo make purge
THIS WILL DELETE /usr/local IF YOU INSTALLED THERE AND IT BECOMES EMPTY
This is not in the default behaviour of make uninstall for obvious reasons.
To clean up the generated manpage, run
make clean
and if you are bored, I suggest
make moo
