Ready-made packages

See: Download Page of OS-18

The page contains information on how to install several packages, including Amalthea.

Build from source

Preparing

You need to have at least one of the following compilers installed:

• Digital Mars D Compiler
• LLVM D Compiler
• GNU D Compiler

The library also depends on libgio-2.0 and libglib-2.0. These libraries are most likely already installed on your system.

Compilation and installation

To build static and dynamic libraries using the ldc2 compiler (default):

make

Installation (root privileges may be required):

make install

After that, the library for ldc2 is ready for use.

The Makefile contains variables:

• DESTDIR specifies the root directory for installing (empty by default);
• PREFIX specifies the base directory, such as usr/local or usr.

The installation directory is defined as $(DESTDIR)/$(PREFIX) in the Makefile.

You can install the library files in any directory. For example, to install into $HOME/.local:

make install DESTDIR=$HOME PREFIX=.local

Uninstall:

make uninstall

If the project was installed in a non-default location, use the corresponding paths:

make uninstall DESTDIR=$HOME PREFIX=.local

Other compilers

The default compiler is ldc2. You can choose another compiler (for example, dmd):

make DC=dmd

Installing:

make install DC=dmd

Uninstalling:

make uninstall DC=dmd
