Compiling <span class="application">Geany</span> is quite easy. The following should do it:
11
</p><pre class="screen">
12
<code class="prompt">%</code> <strong class="userinput"><code><span><strong class="command">./configure</strong></span></code></strong>
13
<code class="prompt">%</code> <strong class="userinput"><code><span><strong class="command">make</strong></span></code></strong>
14
<code class="prompt">%</code> <strong class="userinput"><code><span><strong class="command">make</strong></span> install</code></strong></pre><p>
16
The configure script supports several common options, for a detailed list, type
17
</p><pre class="screen">
18
<code class="prompt">%</code> <strong class="userinput"><code><span><strong class="command">./configure</strong></span> --help</code></strong></pre><p>
20
In the case that your system lacks dynamic linking loader support, you probably want
21
to pass the option --disable-vte to the configure script. This prevents compiling
22
Geany with dynamic linking loader support to automatically load
23
<code class="filename">libvte.so.4</code> if available.
24
</p><p>Geany has been successfully compiled and tested under Debian 3.1 Sarge, Debian 3.2 Etch,
25
Fedora Core 4, LinuxFromScratch and FreeBSD 6.0. It also compiles under
26
<span class="trademark">Microsoft Windows</span>™, but there are lots of changes
27
to the makefiles necessary.
29
If there are any errors during compilation, check your build environment and try to find the error,
30
otherwise contact the author at <code class="email"><<a href="mailto:enrico.troeger@uvena.de">enrico.troeger@uvena.de</a>></code>.
