-Ariba provides the {{{bootstrap_libs}}} script that will help you in installing several libraries. What you should anyway do locally:

 == Local install (Download library dependencies and install ariba in a local subdirectory) ==

-If the required libraries are not available on your system or don't want to install them to the system you can use the {{{bootstrap_libs}}} script that comes with the ariba package. It will download all dependencies, compile and install them locally, and compile and install ariba:
-{{{
-> tar xfz ./ariba-x.x.x.tar.gz
-> cd ariba-x.x.x
-> ./bootstrap_libs
-}}} 
-This script will automatically download all necessary libraries and compile them inside a new {{{./libs}}} subdirectory and install them into {{{./build}}}. In the end the ariba library itself is compiled to {{{./build}}}. You can safely delete the  {{{./libs}}} subdirectory after the process. 
 
 Here is the manual way to go: If you install Ariba locally and have the required libraries also installed locally, you can use a {{{config.site}}} script to make it easier. The {{{config.site}}} file must reside in a folder called {{{share}}}. If your install path is {{{/home/foo/local}}} and you do a {{{./configure --prefix=/home/foo/local}}}, ariba headers will be installed in {{{/home/foo/local/include}}}, and the ariba library in {{{/home/foo/local/lib}}}. To use a {{{config.site}}} script, create a folder {{{/home/foo/local/share}}} and create a file {{{config.site}}}. Such a file has paths towards required header files and libraries.
