Since I am a newby to porting software it would be helpfull if someone wrote a simple description on how to port extra libraries to emu and DR environment. To be more specific, I wanted to add an icon in the DR taskbar for the xournal-app, but I found that I needed at least two extra libraries in my environent. So a short description with the following steps would help me:
1) where to get them
2) how to get them and where to store them (in the VMWare environment of Adam)
3) how to build (i.e. which arguments to add to ./configure ? etc.)
4) how to install (should I give some extra arguments to ./install.sh ?)
5) how to use (do I need to add some extra include and library directories somewhere or are they copied in generic libs-directories)
6) where to copy the libraries on the DR (with example script :-) (will the libraries survive a new firmware upgrade?)

This would help me to get more productive and I assume also other people, lets share the knowledge available in the group.
