Binary packages
(not yet available)
The easiest and fastest way to install geopsy, dinver and other applications is to use the packaging system specific to your Linux distribution, if available. This binary distribution has been introduced at the end of year 2008. Currently only a few distributions are supported:
Source package
This is the primary distribution method always available as a backup if the binary method fails.
Requirements
A decent gcc version is required primarily for Qt. The recommended versions are listed here. To check the version of your compiler:
gcc --version # gcc (GCC) 4.1.1 (Gentoo 4.1.1-r3) # Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Qt libraries and development tools must be available. Currently only all Qt releases posterior or equal to 4.3.3 are supported. To test if Qt is already installed:
qmake -version # QMake version 2.01a # Using Qt version 4.3.3 in /usr/lib64/qt4 lupdate -version # lupdate version 4.3.3
If you get these answers (or more recent versions), you can jump directly to [#download]. If not you must install Qt.
- Installing Qt binary packages, if they are available for your distribution
- Compiling Qt from source
