Installing DropBox on Slackware 13.1 64-bit

Before you start, let's make sure you have gnome docutils installed:

Get the package:

http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/cvs/gnome/gnome-doc-utils.html

Install GNOME Doc Utils (this part is borrowed from LinuxFromScratch book)

./configure --prefix=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0) --mandir=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0)/share/man make 

Test it

make check

and then install as root:

make install

switch to Dropbox installation folder

cd /nautilus-dropbox-0.6.3

./configure
