Instructions for Building on Linux
|
|
|
|
Fuller instructions can be found on our wiki at http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Building_On_Linux.
|
|
|
|
In fact you should read those instructions rather than these
|
|
once. These ones give less detail.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Some prerequisites:
|
|
|
|
- Audacity requires gcc 4.9 or later to build.
|
|
|
|
- CMake ( http://www.cmake.org/ ) is required to build the local copy of
|
|
the libsoxr resampling library used by Audacity.
|
|
|
|
On a modern Debian distro, e.g. Ubuntu 16.04 (bionic), you would do:
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake
|
|
|
|
- libasound and gtk are required. Having gtk2 and gtk3 too
|
|
may not be required, but compilation works if both are.
|
|
|
|
- Auto-tools are also needed.
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install libasound2-dev libgtk2.0-dev libgtk-3-dev
|
|
sudo apt-get install autoconf automake
|
|
|
|
- Since you will be fetching code from git repositories you
|
|
will need git.
|
|
|
|
sudo apt-get install git git-gui gitk
|
|
|
|
|
|
wxWidgets:
|
|
|
|
1) Clone wxWidgets and checkout 3.1.3 from the Audacity fork of the
|
|
wxWidgets project:
|
|
https://github.com/audacity/wxWidgets/....
|
|
|
|
for example
|
|
mkdir ./wxWidgets
|
|
cd ./wxWidgets
|
|
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/audacity/wxWidgets/
|
|
|
|
Don't be tempted to use Widgets already installed on Linux because this
|
|
will typically be a different version and will cause problems.
|
|
|
|
IF you forgot the --recurse-submodules, you can correct that later by:
|
|
git submodule update --init
|
|
|
|
2) Follow instructions for building at
|
|
https://github.com/audacity/wxWidgets/blob/audacity-fixes-3.1.3/docs/gtk/install.md
|
|
|
|
So...
|
|
|
|
mkdir buildgtk
|
|
cd buildgtk
|
|
../configure --with-gtk
|
|
make
|
|
su <type root password>
|
|
make install
|
|
ldconfig
|
|
|
|
3) Having got this far, it is well worth trying out building some wxWidgets
|
|
examples to confirm that building has worked OK
|
|
|
|
Audacity:
|
|
|
|
See our wiki for more detailed build instructions, including how to
|
|
install CMake.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Make a build directory under the audacity git directory.
|
|
|
|
cd audacity
|
|
mkdir build-cmake
|
|
cd build-cmake
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Generate the makefiles
|
|
|
|
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
|
|
|
|
3. Build Audacity
|
|
|
|
cmake --build .
|
|
|
|
4. Run
|
|
|
|
cd bin/Release
|
|
./audacity
|
|
|
