==================================

Ubuntu (8.04)
-----------
Original from:
http://basicubuntu.blogspot.com/2009/02/installing-kicad-on-ubuntu.html
Required software and dependencies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We need to install the following packages: debhelper, dpatch, libx11-dev,
libglu1-mesa-dev, libgl1-mesa-dev, mesa-common-dev, libwxbase2.8-dev,
libwxgtk2.8-dev, libboost-dev, subversion, cmake (>= 2.6.0).
---------------------------------------
sudo apt-get install debhelper dpatch libx11-dev libglu1-mesa-dev
libgl1-mesa-dev mesa-common-dev libwxbase2.8-dev libwxgtk2.8-dev
libboost-dev fakeroot subversion libboost-serialization-dev
---------------------------------------
And finally, we need cmake, but we need atleast version 2.6, the one
from the repository is not the updated one (atleast for ubuntu 8.04).
You can download version 2.6 from newer ubuntu releases.
Just search for cmake on http://packages.ubuntu.com then get a newer
cmake .deb file and install the downloaded package on the console
with:
---------------------------------------
sudo dpkg -i <packagename.deb>
---------------------------------------
But if what the repository gives you is atleast version 2.6, then
simply
---------------------------------------
sudo apt-get install cmake
---------------------------------------
Get KiCad Sourcecode
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We will be getting the source codes through subversion. Create a directory
where you'll be downloading the source codes, and go to that
directory. type the following:
---------------------------------------
svn checkout https://kicad.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/kicad/trunk/kicad kicad
svn checkout https://kicad.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/kicad/trunk/kicad-doc kicad-doc
svn checkout https://kicad.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/kicad/trunk/kicad-library kicad-library
---------------------------------------
Also we need the following to get the debian specific stuff
---------------------------------------
svn checkout http://svn.flexserv.de/kicad/trunk/debian
---------------------------------------
Compiling
~~~~~~~~~
To compile simply do the following on your terminal (make sure you're still in
the same directory where you did the svn)
---------------------------------------
fakeroot debian/rules binary
---------------------------------------
hopefully, there will be no errors.
You'll find the compiled version of KiCad in the following directory:
---------------------------------------
debian/kicad/usr/bin/
---------------------------------------
to complete things up, you'll need to copy the following folders
---------------------------------------
debian/kicad-common/usr/share/kicad/library
debian/kicad-common/usr/share/kicad/modules
debian/kicad-common/usr/share/kicad/template
---------------------------------------
in here
---------------------------------------
debian/kicad/usr/share
---------------------------------------
again, to run KiCad go to
---------------------------------------
cd debian/kicad/usr/bin/
---------------------------------------
and double click KiCad
Debian squeeze (testing)
------------------------
