================================================================================
To install a precompiled ARB
================================================================================
1. download the needed files from our homepage http://www.arb-home.de/
and save them into a directory of your choice (i.e. ~/arb-install/ )
Files needed: 'arb-*.tgz' and 'arb_install.sh'
(see arb_README.txt for details on different versions)
2. get root
3. run arb_install.sh and follow the instructions
4. Install packages needed by ARB:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4a. If you're using Ubuntu please refer to:
* the detailed list of packets to install for ARB: arb_UBUNTU.txt
* the package-install-script for ubuntu: SH/arb_installubuntu4arb.sh
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4b. If you're using debian please install one of the centos versions
You may also want to use
* the package-install-script for ubuntu: SH/arb_installubuntu4arb.sh
(Note: add 'contrib non-free' behind 'main' in /etc/apt/sources.list)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4c. Otherwise use your package manager to install the
software that is needed to run ARB:
- (open)motif
- bash
- libpng
- xterm
- libxerces-c3.1
Only needed for Open GL version:
- OPENGL
- libGLEW -- Open GL extensions library (see subdirectory lib/addlibs)
Software that is useful together with ARB:
- gnuplot
- ghostview (gv)
- xfig (+ fig2dev to print from xfig)
- perl5
- treetool
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Libraries needed to run 32-bit ARB on 64-bit machine:
(checked on OpenSuSE 10.2)
- openmotif-libs-32bit
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you get errors about missing libraries when calling arb, have a look if there
are different versions of the missing libraries in /usr/lib and create a link
there.
Most likely you'll be missing libXm.so.4, so the following example describes
how to solve the problem for that library:
# as superuser:
cd /usr/lib
ln -s libXm.so.4 libXm.so.3
================================================================================
To build ARB from source
================================================================================
1. download the needed files from our homepage http://www.arb-home.de/
and save them into a directory of your choice (i.e. ~/arb-build/ )
Files needed: 'arbsrc*.tgz'
2. Unpack the source
e.g.
tar -zxvf arbsrc.tgz
3. Goto source dir
e.g.
cd arbsrc_6213
4. Set up compile environment
if you're using bash:
export ARBHOME=`pwd`
export PATH=$ARBHOME/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ARBHOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
5. Now either
a. run
make all
to compile arb. On a multiprocessor machine you may want to call
make -j5 all
or similar (where the number should be the number of processors + 1).
This will fail on first call telling you to edit config.Makefile.
Open that file in your editor and check whether the default values
suit your system and needs.
If you like to activate openGL features set OPENGL to 1
(needs additional libraries).
When done, again call one of the make commands mentioned above.
If compilation fails, have a look at the packages needed for compilation
below. For ubuntu/debian there is a script for automated package
installation in
SH/arb_installubuntu4arb.sh
Once compilation succeeds, call
arb
to run arb in compilation directory.
b. run
make tarfile
./arb_install.sh
to install arb for all users
and follow the instructions there.
Additional software that is needed to compile ARB:
--------------------------------------------------
- expat, xmllint, xsltproc [needed for target 'help' only]
- openmotif, openmotif-devel
- xaw???
- libtiff-devel
- lynx
Additional software that is needed to compile open gl parts:
------------------------------------------------------------
- mesa
- mesa-devel
- mesaglw (opensuse)
- mesaglw-devel (opensuse)
- libGLw-devel (SuSE 13.x)
- libpng
- libglew
- glew-devel (opensuse)
- freeglut
- freeglut-devel
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If we forgot something (or if your OS needs something special)
please notify us (devel@arb-home.de). We will mention it here..
