| These instructions show how to install a development version of Rosegarden to use along with the version installed through your distro. Many of these operations can be performed using graphical utilities, but it is much harder to describe point here click that across many different package managers and desktop environments, so these instructions assume you have some familiarity with the Linux command line. You will want to go into a terminal using xterm, Konsole, GNOME Terminal or the like to enter these commands. | These instructions show how to install a development version of Rosegarden to use along with the version installed through your distro.

| ===== Bootstrap and Configure ===== | ===== Run CMake ===== |
| |
| Once you've got the source to ''rosegarden-svn'' under the directory of your choice, move into it, and bootstrap the source: | Once you've got the source to ''rosegarden-svn'' under the directory of your choice, move into it, and create a build directory: |
| |
| <code> | <code> |
| cd rosegarden-svn | cd rosegarden-svn |
| sh bootstrap.sh | mkdir build |
| </code> | </code> |
| |
| Now you need to configure the source. Lately, I have been running 64-bit distros, and on recent 64-bit versions of Ubuntu this step is a little more complicated than it used to be. The first thing you should try is this: | Now you need to run CMake: |
| |
| <code> | <code> |
| ./configure | cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=[PREFIX] [-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug] |
| </code> | </code> |
| |
| If that fails with some error about Qt libraries, you will need to use: | **-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX** sets the installation prefix, such as /usr |
| | If you set the **-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug** then you will compile a debug build instead of the default release build. |
| | |
| | Finally, you are ready to compile: |
| |
| <code> | <code> |
| ./configure --with-qtlibdir=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ | make |
| </code> | </code> |
| |
| If //that// fails, you probably need to try replacing ''x86_64-linux-gnu'' with something else. Look in ''/usr/lib'' for clues, as every one of my Linux systems is 64-bit now. | Since you have a system version of Rosegarden installed, there is probably no need to install the one you just compiled. Run it out of the directory where you just compiled it. All the install target does is set up system icons and MIME types and so forth, and these change very infrequently. |
