SUPERTUXKART INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
======================================
General
-------
First, make sure that you have the following packages installed:
* OpenGL (or Mesa 3.0 or later)
* PLIB version 1.8.4 or later
* SDL 1.2 or later
* OpenAL
Unpack the files from the tarball like this:
tar xzf supertuxkart-*.tar.gz
cd supertuxkart-*
where '*' is the version of SuperTuxkart you downloaded - eg 0.2.0. Then:
./configure
make
To test the compilation, supertuxkart can be run from the build
directory by ./src/supertuxkart (./src/supertuxkart.exe on windows).
To install the file, as root execute:
make install
The default install location is /usr/local, i.e. the data files will
be written to /usr/local/share/games/supertuxkart, the executable
will be copied to /usr/local/bin. To change the default installation
location, use the "--prefix" option of configure, e.g. --prefix=/usr
See the --help output of configure for further options.
SVN STK on Ubuntu Edgy
----------------------
Here are the compilation instructions for the current svn(05 oct. 2006) of
Super Tux Kart on Ubuntu Edgy, contributed by Damien:
install following packages:
# apt-get install libopenal-dev libmikmod2-dev plib1.8.4-dev
libglu1-mesa-dev subversion autoconf automake1.9 g++ gcc
do a:
$ svn checkout http://supertuxkart.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/supertuxkart/trunk/supertuxkart
then:
$ cd trunk
$ ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make
and if all went well:
$ src/supertuxkart
tested with g++ 3.3 and 4.1 , both succeeded.
If you want to install the game system-wide, do 'make install'.
But it didn't work!
-------------------
If you checked out your copy directly from SVN, you have to run
'sh autogen.sh' to generate the configure script.
You should check the SuperTuxKart wiki at:
http://supertuxkart.sourceforge.net/
Also, the most common (by FAR) reason for problems is that your OpenGL/Mesa
is incorrectly installed - so before you complain to any of the PLIB or
Supertuxkart mailing lists, first try running one of the example programs
that comes with your OpenGL implementation - or one of the Mesa or GLUT
sample programs.
If you those examples run OK - then go to the PLIB home page and download
the PLIB examples.
If THOSE run correctly - but Supertuxkart doesn't then please get in touch
with the SupertuxKart mailing list and we'll do our best to get you up and
racing.
