# THIS PROJECT HAS BEEN ABANDONED #

The ManaTools Project has abandoned this project in favor of splitting
out each of the tools into their own projects, leveraging the common
[`python-manatools`](https://github.com/manatools/python-manatools) framework library.

The various ManaTools can be found [on GitHub](https://github.com/ManaTools).

# ManaTools #

ManaTools is a generic launcher application that can run
internal or external modules, such as system configuration tools.

ManaTools is also a collection of configuration tools that allows
users to configure most of their system components in a very simple,
intuitive and attractive interface. It consists of some modules
that can be also run as autonomous applications.

ManaTools started as a port of MCC (Mageia/Mandriva Control Center)
to libYui (Suse widget abstraction library), but its aim is to give
an easy and common interface to develop and add new modules based
on libYui. Every modules as well as ManaTools itself can be run
using QT, Gtk or ncurses interface.

# INSTALLATION #

To install this module, run the following commands:

	perl Makefile.PL
	make
	make test
	make install

To test gui dialogs run:
	make test TEST_GUI=1

To install this module with local::lib (see perldoc local::lib for
details). Note add also -MCPAN if you want to install from cpan locally.

	alias perl='perl -Mlocal::lib'
	perl Makefile.PL
	make
	make test
	make install

Since admin panel works with root privileges you can do the above
and install it locally then run tools as root adding your user environment
variables, to know which ones run perl -Mlocal::lib as user and
execute the output as root.

# Build and install locales #

To build and install locales

	make install_locales

To update locales (pot and pos)

	make update_n_merge

If you want to test your po changes install manatools usning local::lib
and pass --locales-dir path-to-your-locale-files to command line i.e.

	manaclock --locales-dir /home/myuser/perl5/share/locale/
