The first thing I did was follow this page up to the running kicad section
|
|
|
|
http://basicubuntu.blogspot.com/2009/02/installing-kicad-on-ubuntu.html
|
|
|
|
This resulted in the error message detailed in this post

The next step was to remove any libboost 1.34 libraries using the apt-get
|
|
remove command (can't remember the exact commands I used) as the Ubuntu 9.04
|
|
(Jaunty) repositories only had the 1.34 version available.
|
|
|
|
After this I installed the boost 1.37 libraries
|
|
using this command
|
|
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
sudo apt-get install libboost1.37-dev
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
This pulled down all the required files and dependencies (as far as I
|
|
know-how do I check this?)
|
|
|
|
I then entered the following command
|
|
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
fakeroot debian/rules binary
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
and everything was built properly (I saw a few warnings flash past-will
|
|
these be logged anywhere?)
|
|
|
|
I was left with a bunch of debian packaged files. I installed the main one,
|
|
the common one and an English language documentation one (I can supply more
|
|
details if needed later as I am not using Ubuntu at the moment).
|
|
|
|
The first link above describes moving the libraries and other files into the
|
|
same place as the compiled executables. I didn't do this, so I have a
|
|
duplicate installation.
|
|
The above method needs some fine tuning and improvements. If you can let me
|
|
know of a tidier way of compiling Kicad please let me know.
|
|
Maybe there is a way of automating things with scripts, my Linux knowledge
|
|
doesn't go that far, yet.

|
|
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)
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
Special Note
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
After SVN trunk revision 1753 boost library 1.36 or higher is needed
|
|
to compile KiCad.
|
|
|
|
Installing Packages
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
The following packages should be installed with
|
|
synaptic, apt-get or aptitude:
|
|
- build-essential
|
|
- cmake
|
|
- libboost-dev
|
|
- libwxgtk2.8-dev
|
|
- libglut3-dev
|
|
|
|
The following packages will also be installed then
|
|
- cmake dependencies
|
|
- boost development dependencies
|
|
- wxwidgets development dependencies
|
|
- opengl3 (glut) development dependencies
|
|
|
|
Get KiCad sourcecode
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Checkout sourcecode using subversion or download latest release.
|
|
|
|
.*Subversion*
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
svn checkout https://kicad.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/kicad/trunk/kicad kicad

|
|
---------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Compiling
|
|
~~~~~~~~~
|
|
Run 'cmake .' in the root of the source directory then build the

|
|
|
Installing
|
