2The arb-sina-fat tarball contains
3 * a sina binary and
4 * several dynamic libraries required by that binary.
5
6The goal of this tarball is to allow running sina on some systems where
7it refuses to build.
8
9To install the sina version included here into an existing arb
10installation, use the script delivered together with arb for that
11purpose:
12
13        arb_sina_install_from_fat_tarball.sh
14
15At the end of that script sina is called to test compatibility.
16
17If the build system and the target system are compatible, that call
18will print infos about this sina version.
19
20Otherwise it'll show some error, e.g. something like
21     $ARBHOME/bin/fatsina/sina: error while loading shared libraries: lib_whatever.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
22or
23     $ARBHOME/bin/fatsina/sina: /lib/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.18' not found (required by $ARBHOME/bin/fatsina/libstdc++.so.6)
24     $ARBHOME/bin/fatsina/sina: /lib/libpthread.so.0: version `GLIBC_2.12' not found (required by $ARBHOME/bin/fatsina/libglib-2.0.so.0)
25
26If you get any of such errors, your target system is not compatible enough.
27Your best chance is to try out an arb-sina-fat tarball built on another system.
28Alternatively you may try to move conflicting libraries into or out-of subdirs
29(some libraries like libglib are already placed in a subdir after unpacking).
30
31For recent linux distributions it should not be necessary to use this
32tarball, because sina should build there properly and should be included
33in and installed with arb.
34
35Please note that this sina version has been modified to interact with
36arb. Using precompiled sina versions from other sources are not expected
37to interact properly with arb.
