Installation method is not detailed enough

Hi, happy to see someone is interested in Merecat :-)

Yes, with some limitations. It's a standard GNU configure based system so if you set --host to your cross-compiler tuple it should work. I've been using it in my qemu-based embedded system, TroglOS. For more info on how I've integrated it there, see here: https://github.com/troglobit/troglos/blob/master/packages/merecat/Makefile

Note: the latest GIT master (upcoming v2.32) is not yet intended for production. Hopefully will be in a couple of weeks when I've finalized testing of HTTPS. I will update the README with more details on how to build and cross-compile before releasing v2.32.

Hello, merecat is already installed in ubuntu, I want to know how to test and what is the basic configuration of merecat.conf

That depends highly on what version of Merecat you are running, but for both the released v2.31 and the yet unreleased v2.32 (GIT master) the accompanying documentation details all features that are available:

• README.md
• merecat.8
• merecat.conf

Note: read the documentation of the installed version. The documentation on GitHub is for the yet unreleased v2.32.

The man page has split into two on GIT master, merecat.8 and merecat.conf.5. To read them, use:

$ man 8 merecat

and, if you are using GIT master version

$ man 5 merecat.conf

The sample merecat.conf file that is included in all releases contains all available settings, usually with the default value commented out. For details on each setting, see the man page.
