View the Changelog for (d'uh) changes.
Older versions can be downloaded from here.
In order to successfully compile and use bbweather, you need the following programs and libraries which are available on most platforms as distribution packages and thereby can be installed easily.
Required:
If you want to install bbweather from the RPM, you should know that I compiled bbweather with g++-3.0, so that the rpm will complain if you do not have g++-3.0 installed. You can download the source-rpm and recompile and install through rpm, or download the tar-ball.
In order to install bbweather from the tar.gz on your system, type the following in the directory to which you downloaded the bbweather distribution:
% tar zxvf bbweather-0.6.tar.gz % cd bbweather-0.6 %./configure % make % su % make install
This will compile bbweather and install it in /usr/local/bin/,
its configuration files in /usr/local/share/bbtools/ and the
man-pages in /usr/local/man/man1. bbweather also installs
GrabWeather, a perl-script that fetches the relevant
weather-data, in /usr/local/bin/.
