Blink Qt Installation on Microsoft Windows
------------------------------------------
Copyright (c) 2010-2014 AG Projects

This document describes the installation procedure on Microsoft Windows
systems. Windows XP and higher are supported.
This document assumes the SIP SIMPLE Client SDK has already been
installed alongside with all its dependencies.
Step 1. Install dependencies
----------------------------
* Install PyQt4: pacman -S mingw-w64-i686-python2-pyqt4
NOTE: at the time of this writing binary packages weren't available due to some work
in progress, they can alternatively be built manually.
Step 1.1. Install libvncclient
------------------------------
The MSYS2 project does not provide a package for libvncclient, and since our
needs are pretty specific, we provide the source to build a package which just
install the client side VNC libraries.
* Install dependencies: pacman -S pkgconf
* Get the package code: darcs get http://devel.ag-projects.com/repositories/windows/mingw-w64-libvncclient
* Enter the directory and build the package: cd mingw-w64-libvncclient && makepkg-mingw -L --nocheck
* In case the above command fails with an error regarding a non-existent icon file,
just run "makepkg-mingw -L --nocheck" again
* Install the package: pacman -U mingw-w64-i686-libvncclient*any.pkg.tar.xz
Step 2. Build and run Blink
---------------------------
if [ -d blink-qt ]; then
cd blink-qt
darcs pull -a
else
darcs get --set-scripts-executable http://devel.ag-projects.com/repositories/blink-qt
cd blink-qt
fi
./build_inplace
./run
