Building:

$ git clone git://sigrok.org/libsigrokdecode
$ cd libsigrokdecode
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install

sigrok-cli

Installing the requirements:

$ pkg_add -r git gcc autoconf268 automake111 libtool pkg-config glib20

Building:

$ git clone git://sigrok.org/sigrok-cli
$ cd sigrok-cli
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install

PulseView

$ pkg_add -r git gcc libtool pkg-config cmake glib20 qt4 qt4-qmake qt4-moc qt4-rcc qt4-uic boost-libs

Building:

$ git clone git://sigrok.org/pulseview
$ cd pulseview
$ cmake .
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ cd ..

sigrok-gtk

Note: sigrok-gtk is not yet usable!

Installing the requirements:

$ pkg_add -r git gcc autoconf268 automake111 libtool pkg-config glib20 gtk20

Building:

$ git clone git://sigrok.org/sigrok-gtk
$ cd sigrok-gtk
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install

sigrok-qt

Note: sigrok-qt is not yet usable!

Installing the requirements:

$ pkg_add -r git gcc libtool pkg-config glib20 qt4 qt4-qmake qt4-moc qt4-rcc qt4-uic

Building:

$ git clone git://sigrok.org/sigrok-qt
$ cd sigrok-qt
$ qmake-qt4
$ make
$ make install

If you get warnings claiming potential symbol conflicts when running qmake, you are likely not invoking qmake-qt4. Try running qmake-qt4 to force the correct version.

Common problems

If you get this error:

sigrok-cli: error while loading shared libraries: libsigrok.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Then you have to rebuild the links to your shared libraries:

$ sudo ldconfig /usr/local/lib
