Build Instructions > PCLinuxOS build instructions


Normal installation

NOTE: This program is available in the repository. So don't bother installing from source if you don't need to.

apt-get install synfigstudio synfig

Introduction

These instructions were tested and work on PCLinuxOS 2007, updated January 30 2009 after the large repository update.

Note: In this installation, a lot of other software was built from source. If you notice that one of the ./configure attempts requires another dependency, check for that program in synaptic (or its -devel equivalent). It will be there.

You can also grab synfig from SVN. Please note that the synfig team is trying git out, so these instructions may change. See build instructions.
