Wt2Db - DocBook Wiki

wt2db is a component of the Lampadas Project that converts Wiki text to DocBook. It can also be used as a standalone application. Follow the steps below to check it out from the LDP cvs repository and install it locally.

1. Log into the LDP cvs repository anonymously:
   
    cvs -d :pserver:cvs@anoncvs.linuxdoc.org:/cvsroot login

2. Grab the wt2db module:

    cvs -d :pserver:cvs@anoncvs.linuxdoc.org:/cvsroot co LDP/wt2db/

3. wt2db also requires the HTML::Entities perl module, so do:

    perl -MCPAN -e shell

4. At the cpan> prompt, type:

    install HTML::Entities

5. Once that's done, you should be able to run the Makefile in the wt2db distribution:

    ./Makefile.PL

6. Build the package:

    make

7. Install the files in the appropriate locations:

    make install
