There were changes to the CVS which I had not anticipated, so you will 
have to use a CVS checkout from a "safe" date. Please see the updated part 
of the README below.

I would have hoped that my contributed patches to ORBit would have made it 
into ORBit 0.5.4 but obviously they did not.


What version of ORBit is required?
----------------------------------
You need a CVS version of ORBit to use Satellite!

This does NOT work with ORBit 0.5.3 or earlier.

The latest version of ORBit in CVS requires glib-2.0 and has not been 
tested.
Because of this we checkout a CVS version from a know safe date.

How to install ORBit from CVS
-----------------------------

(1) Get it from CVS

    CVS root:   :pserver:anonymous anoncvs gnome org:/cvs/gnome
    Password:   Empty string
    Directory:  ORBit
    Safe date:  2000-09-02 (yyyy-mm-dd)

    More about GNOME:s CVS on http://www.gnome.org/start/source.html

    Sample session at command line to checkout:

    $ export CVSROOT=":pserver:anonymous anoncvs gnome org:/cvs/gnome"
    
    $ cvs login
    (Logging in to anonymous anoncvs gnome org)
    CVS password:
    
    $ cvs checkout -D "2000-09-02" ORBit
    cvs server: Updating ORBit
    .
    .
    .

(2) Set the environment variable CERTIFIED_GNOMIE to whatever you like.

(3) Run ./autogen.sh, gmake och gmake install


How to install ORBit from snapshot
----------------------------------

    http://download.2good.nu/satellite/ORBit-20000902.tgz
