./waf
sudo ./waf install
Refer to ./waf --help
for more options that can be used during the configure stage and
how to properly configure NLSR.
If your pkgconfig path is not set properly, you can do the following before running ./waf
configure
:
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
# or
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/path/to/pkgconfig/on/your/machine

./waf configure --with-chronosync
