This file is to help you configure, build and install Gource for your system. Contents ======== 1. Dependencies 2. Building 3. Configure Options 1. Dependencies =============== Gource requires the following libraries to compile: SDL 1.2 (libsdl1.2-dev) SDL Image 1.2 (libsdl-image1.2-dev) PCRE3 (libpcre3-dev) FTGL 2.1.3~rc5-2 (libftgl-dev) PNG library (libpng12-dev) JPEG library (libjpeg62-dev) GLEW (libglew1.5-dev) 2. Building =========== If you got the source directly from the Gource.git repository, you will first need to run autoreconf to generate the configure script: autoreconf -f -i You also need to initialize and update the submodules: git submodule init git submodule update Building on Linux/Mac OS: ./configure make make install Building on Windows: On Windows I recommend compiling the project file gource.win32.cbp for the Code Blocks IDE (www.codeblocks.org). A pre-built version for Windows is normally available from the homepage. 3. Configure Options ==================== By default Gource will install some GNU FreeFont TTF Fonts on your system. If you already have these fonts, you can configure Gource to use them with: ./configure --enable-ttf-font-dir=/path/to/freefont/
