Other

FrePOPs should be portable to other Unices, like the *BSD family. Read the instructions for FreeBSD for those, download the sources, and build it yourself.

FreeBSD & OpenBSD

freebsdopenbsd There are no prebiult binaries for FreeBSD or OpenBSD, but you should be able to compile the sources.

You need to have libcurl and expat installed, plus bison, flex, gcc, gmake and few other standard utilities.

Explode the sources and type

$ ./configure.sh obsd

or

$ ./configure.sh fbsd

and then type

$ gmake all && gmake install

To build the pdf manual you must have latex, dvips and ps2pdf installed.
