gnuift and libmrml for Debian
-----------------------------

GIFT is quite a beast. You should install gnuift-doc and read
/usr/share/doc/gnuift-doc/configuring-and-hacking-the-gift.dvi.gz and
/usr/share/doc/gnuift-doc/gift-guide.dvi.gz

The PHP client ist included as an example in
/usr/share/doc/gnuift/examples it works right out of the box.


So in short you could do the following:

 * mkdir gift-data
 * cd gift-data
 * cp /usr/share/libmrml1/gift-config.mrml .
 * export GIFT_HOME=`pwd`
 * gift-add-collection.pl /path/to/your/huge/collection/of/images
 * gift & # and hope it runs
 * gunzip < /usr/share/doc/gnuift/examples/Client.php.gz > \
     /path/to/a/webserver/accessible/directory/Client.php
 * access the url with a browser and enter the host where gift is
   running
 * be happy
