{{ _("Tutorial: GNUnet on NetBSD 8.0 CURRENT") }}
Welcome to the GNUnet tutorial for NetBSD!
It provides concrete instructions on how to install a current version of GNUnet. The goal is to support newcomers, either end users or developers, who want to get in touch with GNUnet for the first time.
{{ _("Requirements") }}
As a bare minimum, we recommend you install pkgsrc. This tutorial assumes you have the CURRENT version checked out. Additionally you might want to install devel/git-base
and git clone pkgsrc-wip into the wip
folder in your pkgsrc folder:
$ cd /usr/pkgsrc
$ git clone git://wip.pkgsrc.org/pkgsrc-wip.git wip
{{ _("Installation") }}
Note: $ stands for commands run as unprivileged user, # for commands run as root user.
GNUnet is not yet in the pkgsrc tree, it's still in the pkgsrc-wip repository. So if you checked out pkgsrc-wip into /usr/pksrc/wip
:
$ cd /usr/pkgsrc/wip/gnunet
Before you start building, you might want to review your /etc/mk.conf
. I suggest to consider:
- WRKOBJDIR=/usr/work
- DISTDIR=/usr/distfiles
- DEPENDS_TARGET=package
- UPDATE_TARGET=bin-install
- ACCEPTABLE_LICENSES+= gnu-agpl-v3
- MKREPRO=yes
As we rely on ImageMagick somewhere down our dependency chain (it is one of libextractor's dependencies), you need to set the following (as of 2019-03-06) as well:
- IGNORE_URL+=https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2018-15607
You could however just env ALLOW_VULNERABLE_PACKAGES=1
The build process can involve manual installation interruptions for dependencies!
Then start building:
$ make package
Once you are done, type as root:
# make install
or alternatively:
# pkg_add /usr/pkgsrc/packages/All/gnunet-0.11.0.tgz
And you're done!.
GNUnet has a number of services and features.
Please check our documentation
to learn how to use them. If you find anything odd or bugs, please
let us know.
Note that the rc.d file which is installed is not yet functional.
{{_("First steps")}}
Congratulations! GNUnet is now installed! Before starting it you may create a configuration file. By default GNUnet looks in our home directory for the file `~/.config/gnunet.conf`. Creating the configuation file is optional. For now just create an empty file which will remind you of the location later if needed:
$ touch ~/.config/gnunet.conf
It's reccomended that you increase your bandwidth restrictions from the acutely low defaults. The example below sets the WAN and LAN limits to the value "unlimited".
$ gnunet-config -s ats -o WAN_QUOTA_IN -V unlimited
$ gnunet-config -s ats -o WAN_QUOTA_OUT -V unlimited
$ gnunet-config -s ats -o LAN_QUOTA_IN -V unlimited
$ gnunet-config -s ats -o LAN_QUOTA_OUT -V unlimited
GNUnet and its services are managed using the command line tool `gnunet-arm`
(Automatic Restart Manager).
To start GNUnet with its default services execute:
$ gnunet-arm -s
To list the running services use:
$ gnunet-arm -I
Running services:
ats (gnunet-service-ats)
revocation (gnunet-service-revocation)
set (gnunet-service-set)
nat (gnunet-service-nat)
transport (gnunet-service-transport)
peerstore (gnunet-service-peerstore)
hostlist (gnunet-daemon-hostlist)
identity (gnunet-service-identity)
namecache (gnunet-service-namecache)
peerinfo (gnunet-service-peerinfo)
datastore (gnunet-service-datastore)
zonemaster (gnunet-service-zonemaster)
zonemaster-monitor (gnunet-service-zonemaster-monitor)
nse (gnunet-service-nse)
cadet (gnunet-service-cadet)
dht (gnunet-service-dht)
core (gnunet-service-core)
gns (gnunet-service-gns)
statistics (gnunet-service-statistics)
topology (gnunet-daemon-topology)
fs (gnunet-service-fs)
namestore (gnunet-service-namestore)
vpn (gnunet-service-vpn)
To stop all services, use the `-e` option.
$ gnunet-arm -e
{{ _("Alternative: Installation from source") }}
The following instructions are only really interesting for developers or if you need special build switches. First, install the dependencies from pkgsrc. You can use binary built packages, but since we are using CURRENT of pkgsrc, this is more direct. For the binary built version, use pkg_add or pkgin (and read into pkgsrc CURRENT with pkgin or pkg_add).
