Install instructions for ObexFTP

Arch

  pacman -S obexftp

https://www.archlinux.org/devel/packages.php?id=10446 for more infos.

Gentoo

  emerge -av obexftp

Ubuntu

  sudo apt-get install obexftp

Fedora Core 4 / Slackware 10.2

The 'openobex.pc' file from OpenOBEX is installed in '/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig' and not '/usr/lib/pkgconfig'.

You can either copy the pkg-config file to the expected location or use

  export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/
  ./configure
  make

--- Sean Lincolne

If you have another package that has written a '/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig' file by accident, then OpenOBEX won't replace it. Instead, fish the openobex.pc out of its build directory (from the tar.gz of OpenOBEX) and put it in /usr/lib/pkgconfig/ directly.
