New page

The [[Gr-smart meters Setup Guide]] describes how to build the gr-smart meters setup on Ubuntu. This page documents how to do so on other Linux distributions.

This is a container file (for use with Docker or Podman) that shows how to build the relevant modules under Arch Linux.

To run these commands on a real distribution (that is, not in a container), you can simply execute each "RUN" command exactly as it appears and then substitute `cd` commands for the "WORKDIR" lines. You can ignore the "FROM" line. You will want to adjust the directories for your own computer.
