setup your CVS client, you can visit the webpage
<ulink url="http://developer.gnome.org/tools/cvs.html">http://developer.gnome.org/tools/cvs.html</ulink> for instructions. In a nutshell, you will need to run

shell):</para>

<para>

<literallayout>
<literal>export CVSROOT=":pserver:[e-mail]:/cvs/gnome"</literal>
<literal>cvs login</literal>
</literallayout>

Just hit enter at the password prompt since there is no password.

<literallayout>
<literal>cvs co gftp</literal>
</literallayout>

</para>

<para>
To compile the CVS code, you will need <emphasis>autoconf</emphasis>,
<emphasis>automake 1.4</emphasis> and <emphasis>gettext</emphasis>
installed on your system. To generate a configure script, you will
need to run <emphasis>autogen.sh</emphasis>. Once this script is
generated, you can follow the normal installation instructions.

<title>Does gFTP have a SVN repository?</title>

<para>gFTP is stored in GNOME's SVN repository. For instructions on how to
setup your subversion client, visit the website 
<ulink url="http://developer.gnome.org/tools/svn.html">http://developer.gnome.org/tools/svn.html</ulink>.
In a nutshell, you will need to run the following command to download the latest code:
</para>

<para>

<literallayout>
<literal>svn co http://svn.gnome.org/svn/gftp/trunk gftp</literal>
</literallayout>

</para>

<para>
To compile the SVN code, you will need <emphasis>autoconf</emphasis>,
<emphasis>automake</emphasis> and <emphasis>gettext</emphasis>
installed on your system. Once you have those packages installed, run
the following series of commands:
</para>

<itemizedlist>
<listitem><simpara>Run <emphasis>./autogen.sh</emphasis> to generate the configure scripts.</simpara></listitem>
<listitem><simpara>If that is successful, run <emphasis>./configure</emphasis> to generate the Makefiles. By default, the binaries will be installed in /usr/local/bin. You can change the install location by passing the <emphasis>--prefix</emphasis> argument to configure. For example, let's say you want to install the binaries in /usr/bin. Run <emphasis>configure --prefix=/usr</emphasis>.</simpara></listitem>
<listitem><simpara>If that is successful, run <emphasis>make</emphasis> to build the source.</simpara></listitem>
<listitem><simpara>Optional: If that is successful, run <emphasis>make install</emphasis> to install the binary on your computer.</simpara></listitem>
