\section installation_linux Installation on Linux

\subsection install_debian Installation for Debian Linux (via repository)

A <a href="https://packages.debian.org/source/sid/pktools">binary package</a> of pktools for Debian is maintained by Francesco Paolo Lovergine and available in the repository. You can install it using the advanced package tool (apt):

\code
sudo apt-get install pktools
\endcode

The version in the repository might not be the latest available (please check the <a href="https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=pkg-grass-devel%40lists.alioth.debian.org">packages overview</a>). The latest version of pktools can always be installed via the \ref install_ubuntu "installation script" or from the source code using a \ref install_manual "manual" installation.

\subsection install_ubuntu Installation for Ubuntu (Debian based) Linux distributions (from source code via automatic script)

Users working with Debian based distributions (e.g., Ubuntu) can download <a href="http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/pktools/install_pktools.sh">install_pktools.sh</a>. This script will automatically download the latest release of pktools and dependencies. You need an internet connection when running the script (as root or sudo):

\code
sudo bash install_pktools.sh
\endcode

\subsection install_manual Manual installation for (all Linux distributions)

For a manual installation, download the <a href="http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/pktools/pktools-latest.tar.gz">latest</a> release from <a href="http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/pktools/">Savannah</a>

Optionally: check the release <a href="http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/pktools/pktools-latest.md5">md5sum</a> to ensure originality.

\code 
md5sum pktools-latest.tar.gz
\endcode

The result should be identical to the content of the corresponding md5 file you downloaded.

Unpack the tar zip file

\code
tar xzvf pktools-latest.tar.gz
cd pktools-*
\endcode

You can install pktools via
    - \ref installation_cmake "cmake" (linux, windows, Mac OS)

Notice that "autotools" (configure, make, make install) is deprecated from version 2.6.7, please use cmake instead

\subsubsection pktools_installation_required Required dependences

packages to install before pktools
   - g++
   - make
   - libgdal-dev (see also http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/BuildingOnUnix)
   - libgsl0-dev (see also http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/)
   - libarmadillo-dev (see also http://arma.sourceforge.net/download.html)

   Example on how to install required packages in Debian based system (using apt-get):
  - sudo apt-get install g++ make libgdal-dev libgsl0-dev libarmadillo-dev

\subsubsection pktools_installation_optional Optional dependences

<b>To enable program \ref pkoptsvm</b>

   Install additional package 

   - libnlopt-dev (see also http://ab-initio.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/NLopt#Download_and_installation )

   Example on how to install required packages in Debian based system (using apt-get):

   \code   
   sudo apt-get install libnlopt-dev
   \endcode

   Note: currently, the repository seems not to include this package anymore and manual installation is required (see also http://ab-initio.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/NLopt#Download_and_installation)

   - Install pktools with with extra configuration option --enable-nlopt:

   \code
   ./configure --enable-nlopt
   make
   sudo make install
   sudo ldconfig
   \endcode


<b>To enable programs \ref pkann and \ref pkfsann</b>

   Install package 

   - libfann-dev (see also http://leenissen.dk/fann/wp/download/)

   Example on how to install required packages in Debian based system (using apt-get):
   
   \code
   sudo apt-get install libfann-dev
   \endcode

   Install pktools with extra cmake option -DBUILD_WITH_FANN=ON

   \code
   mkdir build
   cd build
   cmake -DBUILD_WITH_FANN=ON ..
   make
   sudo make install
   \endcode

<b>To enable program \ref pklas2img</b>

   Install additional packages:

   - libboost-dev (see also http://www.boost.org/)
   - liblas1 (from Mateusz Loskot, see also http://www.liblas.org/tutorial/cpp.html)
   - liblas-dev 
   - python-liblas 
   - liblas2 
   - liblas-c2 
   - liblas-c-dev

   Example on how to install required packages in Debian based system (using apt-get):

    - first add the following two lines to /etc/apt/sources.list (replace <codename> with what you get from lsb_release -c)

    \code
      deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable/ubuntu <codename> main 
      deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ubuntugis/ubuntugis-unstable/ubuntu <codename> main 
    \endcode      
      
    - then install extra packages:      

    \code
      sudo apt-get install libboost-dev liblas-dev liblas-c-dev liblas1 liblas2 liblas-c2  python-liblas
    \endcode
   
   Or install manually as explained in http://www.liblas.org/compilation.html#using-unix-makefiles-on-linux

   ! Note that if you want support for compressed las format (LAZ), you need to install laszip first (http://www.laszip.org) and install liblas manually

   - Install pktools with with extra cmake option -DBUILD_WITH_LIBLAS=ON

   \code
   mkdir build
   cd build
   cmake -DBUILD_WITH_LIBLAS=ON ..
   make
   sudo make install
   \endcode
   \code


\subsection Troubleshooting cmake in Linux (installed version is not 2.8)
If your system does not have CMake version 2.8, or your repository has an older version, you can manually install the latest version of CMake (for instance version 3.2.2):

\code
wget http://www.cmake.org/files/v3.2/cmake-3.2.2.tar.gz
tar xf cmake-3.2.2.tar.gz
cd cmake-3.2.2
./configure
make
make install
\endcode

In order to have ccmake look for the newly installed version in /usr/local/bin, I had to (on a Debian/Ubuntu based system):

\code
sudo apt-get install libncurses5-dev
\code

Then reconfigure/compile/install cmake and restart the shell
