I have a fruit cup and I'm not afraid to use it.

Since it may not be obvious to everyone:

As the readme states, you need a few libraries to run this, namely libssl, libgtkmm and libxml++. So, if you don't have a repository for a current Gtkevemon and need to compile this, make sure to install these first. Also, from another thread:

If you are on a binary based distribution like ubuntu, make sure, that you don't just install the libraries, but the development files as well. under ubuntu I believe this would be 'libssl-dev', 'libgtkmm-3.0-dev' and 'libxml++2.6-dev'

Then just as a user do:
git clone https://git@github.com/gtkevemon/gtkevemon
cd gtkevemon
make


and as superuser:
make install


then you should be able to run '/usr/local/bin/gtkevemon' from cli, a script, a launcher or what have you.


Git may also not come with your distribution by default, so make sure to install that as well.

On the point of bypassing your distributions package manager to install Gtkevemon from git: My understanding is, that Gtkevemon does not install or modify any libraries, so doing that should not overwrite or break anything. I don't give any warranties, but doing what I said in the quote is very unlikely to **** up your system, as long as you make sure to 'make install only gtkevemon and nothing else.
