Building

IMPORTANT: The following sections on installing build requirements are distro-specific examples and may or may not be out of date, depending on which distro you use. Please check the official build requirements list in the wiki or the current libsigrok README for the full list of requirements.

libserialport

Installing the requirements

Debian/Ubuntu/Mint

$ sudo apt-get install git-core gcc make autoconf automake libtool

Arch

# pacman -S git gcc make autoconf automake libtool

Building

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

libsigrok

Installing the requirements

Debian/Ubuntu

$ sudo apt-get install git-core gcc g++ make autoconf autoconf-archive \
  automake libtool pkg-config libglib2.0-dev libglibmm-2.4-dev libzip-dev \
  libusb-1.0-0-dev libftdi-dev check doxygen python-numpy\
  python-dev python-gi-dev python-setuptools swig default-jdk

Fedora (18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

$ sudo yum install git gcc make autoconf autoconf-archive automake libtool pkgconfig \
   glib2-devel libzip-devel libusb1-devel libftdi-devel check-devel doxygen
  For c++ bindings, add sudo yum install glibmm24-devel
  for python bindings, add sudo yum install python-devel numpy pygobject3-devel swig

Arch

# pacman -S git gcc make autoconf autoconf-archive automake libtool \
  pkg-config glib2 glibmm libzip libusb libftdi check doxygen python-numpy \
  python-setuptools swig jdk8-openjdk

Building

$ git clone git://sigrok.org/libsigrok
$ cd libsigrok
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure --enable-cxx
$ make
$ sudo make install

--enable-cxx required for later pulseview build.
