sigrok-gui on Linux

This page describes how to build sigrok on Linux.

Requirements

• git (for clonin the source code repository)
• gcc, g++, make, ...
• autoconf, automake, libtool, pkg-config
• libglib >= 2.0
• libusb >= 1.0.5
• libzip >= 0.8
• Python >= 2.5
• Qt + Qt Creator >= 4.5 (for building/editing the GUI)

Installing the build-dependencies

On most Linux distributions there are pre-built packages for the sigrok dependencies (if not, you have to build the packages from source). The installation using a package manager is usually pretty simple.

Debian/Ubuntu:

$ apt-get install git-core gcc libglib2.0-dev libusb-1.0-0-dev libzip-dev qtcreator qt4-designer qt4-dev-tools libqt4-dev

Fedora:

$ yum install gcc-c++ libtool glib2-devel libusb1-devel libzip-devel qt-devel python-devel

Building

$ git clone git://sigrok.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/sigrok/sigrok
$ cd sigrok
$ ./autogen.sh
$ make
$ make install

Then, for building the GUI:

$ cd gui
$ qmake
$ make

Distribution packages

• Debian / Ubuntu: Uwe Hermann will create packages for Debian unstable (which will semi-automatically migrate to Ubuntu after a while).
