| Compilation and install instructions for GNU/Linux | ||||
|  | ||||
| Download wxWidgets. Audacity 2.1.3 requires wxWidgets 3.0.x, preferably 3.0.2,  | ||||
| which can be obtained from: | ||||
| https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/releases/download/v3.0.2/wxWidgets-3.0.2.tar.bz2 . | ||||
| Note: Audacity 2.2.0 requires gcc 4.9 or later. For Ubuntu 14.04 which only | ||||
| has up to 4.8.4, see here for upgrade instructions: | ||||
|    http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Upgrade_to_gcc_4.9 | ||||
|  | ||||
| Don't be tempted to use the Widgets version already installed on Linux because  | ||||
| this will cause problems. | ||||
| Audacity 2.2.0 requires wxWidgets 3.0.x, preferably 3.0.2, built with gtk2. | ||||
| If not available in your distribution repository, it may be  downloaded from: | ||||
|    https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/releases/download/v3.0.2/wxWidgets-3.0.2.tar.bz2 . | ||||
|  | ||||
| The libsndfile library is also required and is included in Audacity obtained  | ||||
| from GitHub. Obtain the latest Audacity alpha development source code from  | ||||
| https://github.com/audacity/audacity then use the green "Clone or download"  | ||||
| button to git clone Audacity. You may need to install git first.   | ||||
| On openSUSE, be sure to install wxWidgets without STL. | ||||
|  | ||||
| If you are not planning to do any development, you may be better to download | ||||
| the Audacity 2.1.3 release minimal source tarball from  | ||||
| The latest Audacity development source code is available from: | ||||
|    https://github.com/audacity/audacity | ||||
|  | ||||
| If you are not planning to do any development, the Audacity 2.2.0 release | ||||
| minimal source tarball is recommended from: | ||||
| http://www.audacityteam.org/download/source/ . | ||||
|   | ||||
| CMake ( http://www.cmake.org/ ) is required to build the local copy of  | ||||
| the libsoxr resampling library used by Audacity, unless you install  | ||||
| libsoxr-dev and use that system library. | ||||
|  | ||||
| Installation of other libraries is optional, see: | ||||
| http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Developing_On_Linux#optional .  | ||||
| Other required dependencies: | ||||
|  | ||||
| The PortAudio and PortMidi libraries used by Audacity 2.2.0 include fixes | ||||
| that are not yet available in the upstream versions, so the local (included) | ||||
| versions must be used. | ||||
|  | ||||
| libsndfile library is required and is included in the Audacity source. | ||||
|  | ||||
| libsoxr resampling library. If libsoxr-dev is not available as a system library, | ||||
| the source code is included in the Audacity  tarball. | ||||
| CMake ( http://www.cmake.org/ ) is required to build a local copy of libsoxr. | ||||
|  | ||||
| Information about optional libraries may be available on: | ||||
|    http://wiki.audacityteam.org/wiki/Developing_On_Linux#optional .  | ||||
|  | ||||
| If you install libraries using a package management system like Apt or RPM, | ||||
| you need to install the "dev" (development) packages for each library. | ||||
|  | ||||
| Compile wxWidgets with the default gtk2 option, not with gtk3: | ||||
|  | ||||
|    ./configure | ||||
| Compiling wxWidgets: | ||||
|  | ||||
| wxWidgets must be built with the default gtk2 option, not with gtk3, and | ||||
| without STL (also default). Full instructions for compilation can be found in: | ||||
|    wxWidgets-3.0.2/docs/gtk/ | ||||
|  | ||||
|  | ||||
| Compiling and installing Audacity: | ||||
|  | ||||
| As there have been fixes to several of the included libraries, compiling with | ||||
| the included ('local') libraries is recommended, This also reduces the number of | ||||
| dependencies that need to be installed. One common exception to this is the optional | ||||
| FFmpeg library (see below) | ||||
|  | ||||
| From the root of the source tree, create a build directory, then change directory into it: | ||||
|    mkdir build | ||||
|    cd build | ||||
|  | ||||
| To see the compile-time options you can set: | ||||
|    ../configure -h | ||||
|  | ||||
| Run the configure command with your preferred options, then 'make' | ||||
|    ../configure -with-lib-preference="local system" | ||||
|    make | ||||
|  | ||||
| Install wxWidgets (this defaults to installation in /usr/local/).  | ||||
| On a multi-core  system, build time can be considerably reduce by setting the -j (jobs) | ||||
| switch equal to the number of cores. For example, on a quad core processor: | ||||
|    make -j4 | ||||
|  | ||||
|    make install # as root | ||||
|    ldconfig  # as root  | ||||
|  | ||||
| The root command is often sudo on GNU/Linux, for example 'sudo make install'. | ||||
|  | ||||
| Then to compile and install Audacity:  | ||||
|  | ||||
|    ./configure -with-lib-preference="local system" | ||||
|    make | ||||
| To install: | ||||
|    make install  # as root | ||||
|  | ||||
| To see the compile-time options you can set, type | ||||
|    ./configure --help | ||||
| (The root command is often sudo on GNU/Linux, for example 'sudo make install'.) | ||||
|  | ||||
| If you want to do any development, you might want to generate a configure cache | ||||
| and header dependencies: | ||||
|  | ||||
|    ./configure -C | ||||
|    make dep | ||||
|  | ||||
| To uninstall: | ||||
|    make uninstall #as root | ||||
|  | ||||
| To clean the build after modifying code: | ||||
|    make clean | ||||
|  | ||||
| To clean and remove previous configure options: | ||||
|    make distclean | ||||
|  | ||||
|  | ||||
| FFmpeg support:: | ||||
|  | ||||
| Audacity should be able to link dynamically to FFmpeg 1.2 to 2.3.x (libav 0.8 to 10), | ||||
| but many distributions have more recent versions that fail to link dynamically. | ||||
| To work around this issue, Audacity may be configured to use the system | ||||
| FFmpeg library and disable dynamic loading. If this is done for both FFmpeg | ||||
| and the optional LAME library, the "Libraries" option in Audacity's Preferences | ||||
| is not required and is automatically removed. | ||||
|    ../configure --with-lib-preference="local system" --with-ffmpeg=system \ | ||||
|                 --with-lame=system --disable-dynamic-loading | ||||
|  | ||||
