Description
-----------

libstatgrab is a library for accessing information from the system
for statistical purposes. It could be used for software that monitors
the system for alerting or graphing purposes.

License
-------

The library part of libstatgrab is licensed under the GNU LGPL, but
the tools and examples are licensed under the GNU GPL.

Building and Installation
-------------------------

After downloading and extracting libstatgrab, configure and build as
follows;

./configure
make

Then install as root;

make install

There are, of course, the usual GNU-style configure options;

  --prefix=PREFIX

For more documentation on the installation process, please read the
INSTALL document.

Cygwin Notes
------------

If you have installed libncurses-devel but the configure script can't
find ncurses.h, you've most likely hit a bug in the cygwin package. To
fix this run: /etc/postinstall/libncurses-devel.sh.done

Problems?
---------

Please let us know if you have any problems - support@i-scream.org.

If you find a bug, help us to fix it by sending details to
bugs@i-scream.org. If you have a patch, please send it too.

Log Message:	Alter the licensing of libstatgrab. The library part is now under the LGPL, whilst the tools/examples are under the GPL. Both licenses are included in the distribution (and are both now in CVS). Also made a minor alteration to the webpage where it said everything was licensed under the GPL.
