Bero: /* Ark Linux */ Ark is currently at 1.7.0 -- not 1.3.9

= GNU/Linux =
Not all Distributions are always at the state of the current release. If you want to be sure to have the current version, please get the sources and compile it yourself.

=== Arch Linux ===
* For the official pkg from [extra]: <code>pacman -S wesnoth</code>
* dibblethewrecker also provides regular SVN snapshots. Please see [ http://dtw.jiwe.org/content.php?article.9 here] for details of how to access the repo. As development of wesnoth continues this repo is likely to follow the unstable branch.

=== Ark Linux ===
* Ark Linux includes an official wesnoth package, currently at version 1.7.0. Simply use the package installation tool to install the wesnoth package, or run <code>apt-get update; apt-get install wesnoth</code> (or <code>apt-get -t dockyard-devel install wesnoth</code> if you wish to run the current development version of wesnoth with all other packages from the stable tree)
* Users of other similar distributions can download the packages at [http://arklinux.osuosl.org/dockyard-devel the Ark Linux file server]. They are likely to run on any rpm based distribution that uses a recent version of gcc (>= 4.0) and glibc (>= 2.4).

=== Debian ===
* <code>aptitude install wesnoth</code><br/>(use <code>wesnoth-all</code> if you want to pull in all the campaigns and the editor, too)
* [http://packages.debian.org/wesnoth Official packages] including the development releases in the experimental branch
* [http://backports.org/ backports.org] offers the stable wesnoth releases for Debian stable, see http://wiki.debian.org/Backports for more informations.
* For '''unstable and stable builds''', visit [http://itwesnoth.valdan.net ITWESNOTH] and ours repository on tuxfamily: [http://download.tuxfamily.org/itwesnoth/debian/].

====International langugage support====
Debian does not come with all locales. If you can't choose your language, you need to add locale for your lang.
see man locale.gen for more info.
quick guide for lenny: uncomment locales you want in /etc/locale.gen, then as root run "locale-gen".

====Compiling====

If you want to play with the SVN version directly you may have to compile it yourself. See [http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/CompilingWesnoth Compiling Wesnoth].

'''To install the dependencies:'''

You can use a neat trick: Use the Build-Dependencies of the Debian package.

Just do an <code>aptitude build-dep wesnoth</code>. That will pull in most you need. As of 1.4 stable wesnoth, the dependencies also include all of the "Boost" libraries, if you are using Debian stable/etch sources.list you need to also <code>aptitude install libboost-iostreams-dev libboost-test-dev</code>.

'''To compile it:'''<br/>
If you have already installed an older version of wesnoth, uninstall it by:

<code>aptitude purge wesnoth</code>

Note that this will not remove downloaded data or savegames which are stored in your home directory in the folder <code>.wesnoth</code>. From this point on you can simply follow the advices from the [http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/CompilingWesnoth Compiling Wesnoth] page, no need to duplicate that informations in here. :)

=== Ubuntu ===

==== Jaunty ====

9.04's universe repository includes version 1.6a

You can install via System->Administration->Synaptic, via Applications->Add/Remove or aptitude/apt-get.

====Intrepid====

8.10's universe repository includes version 1.4.5.

You can install via System->Administration->Synaptic, via Applications->Add/Remove or aptitude/apt-get.

Updated versions can be found in [http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=The+Battle+for+Wesnoth GetDeb.net].

For '''unstable and stable builds''', visit [http://itwesnoth.valdan.net IT-WESNOTH] and our repository on tuxfamily: [http://download.tuxfamily.org/itwesnoth/debian/].

====Hardy====

* 8.04's (hardy) universe repository includes version 1.4.
* 8.04's (hardy-backports) universe repository includes version 1.4.4.

See the [http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Gutsy#How_to_add_extra_repositories Ubuntu Starter Guide]'s section on adding the universe repositories.
Install via System->Administration->Synaptic, via Applications->Add/Remove or aptitude/apt-get.

Updated versions can be found in [http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=The+Battle+for+Wesnoth GetDeb.net].

====Dapper====

6.06's universe repository includes version 1.0.2.

This is the (really old) stable release of the 1.0.x series. As this is not the latest version, Dapper users will need to do one of the following to obtain the latest version:
*Upgrade to a later version of Ubuntu, or
*Use an unofficial repository, or
*Build from the source per Debian above, or
*Use the generic binary for GNU/Linux found on the [[Download]] page.
Of these options, the final one is most likely the easiest at this time, while building from source is the most reliable.

====Compiling====
If you choose to build the source you should add the datadir flag to ''configure'' to ensure your installation puts the data in the same place as the official installation path:

cd /usr/src
tar -xvzf wesnoth-1.x.x.tar.gz
cd wesnoth-1.x.x
./configure --datadir=/usr/share/games ...
make
sudo make install

==== International language support ====

If you want to use Wesnoth with a language that is not supported by your system, you have at least two options:

From Wesnoth version 1.6 onwards you can start Wesnoth with the flag <code>--dummy-locales</code> to enable all languages, even if they are not supported by your system.

For older versions of Wesnoth you’ll have to enable the language on your own system first. Look in the file <code>/usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED</code> for a line with an ISO language code matching what you want. Append that line to <code>/var/lib/locales/supported.d/local</code>, then run <code>sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales</code>. You should now be able to select that language from the language selector in Wesnoth.

=== Fedora ===
Battle for Wesnoth is included in [http://fedoraproject.org/ Fedora]. The current version of Battle for Wesnoth is available for ppc, i386, and x86_64 architectures. If you have problems with these packages, or other questions, please contact the Fedora maintainer [mailto:limb_AT_jcomserv.net Jon Ciesla].

To install simply run:
* <code>yum install wesnoth wesnoth-tools wesnoth-server</code>

=== Gentoo ===
For the stable release just type:
* <code>emerge wesnoth</code>

For the development release you will have to fetch an overlay, eg from this site:
http://www.dorf.wh.uni-dortmund.de/priv/markus/wesnoth-dev.tbz
extract it to your local overlay-directory and then type
<code>emerge wesnoth-dev</code>
The ebuild will be updated whenever the person creating the ebuild finds the time to do so.

Or if you're too impatient to wait and willing to take the risk of things blowing up, download
and extract the overlay, make a copy of the highest available ebuild version, but change the version number to
that of Wesnoth version you want (for instance, wesnoth-dev-1.3.2.ebuild might become
wesnoth-dev-1.3.8.ebuild ), run
<code>ebuild [new ebuild file] digest</code>
and then try to emerge. It may or may not work, depending on exactly how extensive the changes in the Wesnoth
source are--going from 1.3.2 to 1.3.8 this way worked for me.
There's an ebuild for 1.5.8 on Gentoo Bugzilla: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=256513

For building from svn tree download the portage overlay from:
http://www.dorf.wh.uni-dortmund.de/priv/markus/wesnoth-svn.tbz
extract it to your local overlay-directory and then type
<code>emerge wesnoth-svn</code>

wesnoth-dev are the official development releases
while wesnoth-svn will build straight from SVN-source tree to keep you up to date with the lastest changes and all the errors ;-)
updating wesnoth-svn will not work ! you have to reemerge it each time you want to update !

=== KateOS ===
Currently Battle for Wesnoth v1.4 is available in offcial KateOS repo (testing for now)
[http://www.kateos.org/download/packages/testing3/]

=== klik ===
The most easy way to testdrive BfW is provided via [http://klik.atekon.de/ klik]. klik enables clients to create distribution-independent binaries which require no "installation" (the base system remains untouched); its created "AppDir" bundles run even from USB stick or CD RW. klik support is pre-enabled on Knoppix and Kanotix Live CDs. Other distros need to install a small klik client (less than 20 kByte download, less than 20 seconds effort). See the [http://klik.atekon.de/wiki/index.php/User%27s_FAQ klik FAQ] for details. A [http://wesnoth.klik.atekon.de/ BfW-specific klik website] has links to help with the package. Once the klik client is installed, look at this:
* [http://wesnoth.klik.atekon.de/ Wesnoth-1.0] ancient stable Version: to "klik" it, type ''klik://wesnoth'' into your Browser

====Compiling====

If you want to play with the SVN version directly you may have to compile it yourself. See [http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/CompilingWesnoth Compiling Wesnoth].

'''To install the dependencies :'''

<code>aptitude install build-essential libsdl-image1.2-dev libfreetype6-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-net1.2-dev libfribidi-dev python-dev</code>

'''To compile it :'''
If you have already installed and older version of wesnoth, uninstall it by:

<code>aptitude purge wesnoth</code>

Note that will remove all your wesnoth configuration.
Then, download the source by wget, or your internet navigator. Save it in the /usr/src directory.
Now, it's very easy :

cd /usr/src
tar -xvzf wesnoth-1.x.x.tar.gz
cd wesnoth-1.x.x
./configure
make
sudo make install

You may have more information about this part in the [http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/CompilingWesnoth Compiling Wesnoth] page.

=== Ubuntu ===

====Gutsy====
7.10's universe repository includes version 1.2.6.

See the [http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Feisty#How_to_add_extra_repositories Ubuntu Starter Guide]'s section on adding the universe repositories.
Install via System->Administration->Synaptic, via Applications->Add/Remove or aptitude/apt-get.

====Feisty====
There is a version 1.2.6 available at the [http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=The+Battle+for+Wesnoth GetDeb.net] for both 32bit and 64bit Feistys.

Battle for Wesnoth 1.2.3-1 is included in the Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty's) universe collection. You can install via System->Administration->Synaptic, via Applications->Add/Remove or aptitude/apt-get.

====Edgy====
There is a version 1.2.4 available at the [http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=The+Battle+for+Wesnoth GetDeb.net] for 32bit Edgy.

Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft includes binaries for Wesnoth 1.1.8 in its universe repository, so if you're happy with this version, just upgrade to Edgy Eft. But be aware that this version is completely outdated and there is no official mp-server running for it. Better try to update to a more recent version, like one from the 1.2.x stable series.

====Dapper====
There is a version 1.2.3 available at the [http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=The+Battle+for+Wesnoth GetDeb.net] for 32bit Dapper.

Battle for Wesnoth 1.0.1-1 is included in Ubuntu Dapper's universe collection. This is the (really old) stable release of the 1.0.x series. As this is not the latest version, Breezy users will need to do one of the following to obtain the latest version:
*Upgrade to the Dapper Drake, or
*Use the Breezy-Backports repository,
*Use an unofficial repository, or
*Build from the source per Debian above, or
*Use the generic binary for GNU/Linux found on the [[Download]] page.
Of these options, the final one is most likely the easiest at this time, while building from source is the most reliable.

====Other====
Do not attempt to install the debian package and associated dependencies using ''dpkg'' as you will break your environment! (Though we had no comment of anything in the system being broken after installing Wesnoth from a Debian rep, in fact the Debian binaries are exactly what is used for Ubuntu, too)

After considering the warning above, if you would still like to use more updated Wesnoth packages in Debian Etch on your installation of Ubuntu Edgy (notice that the following instruction itself might be flawed, in addition to introducing Debian packages to your installation):

* Add a Debian etch mirror to your /etc/apt/sources.list, e.g.
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ etch main
* Add to /etc/apt/preferences, or create it with the following content
Package: *
Pin: release o=Ubuntu
Pin-Priority: 995

Package: wesnoth
Pin: release o=Debian
Pin-Priority: 996

Package: wesnoth-data
Pin: release o=Debian
Pin-Priority: 996

(You need to repeat this for each of wesnoth-music, wesnoth-server, wesnoth-httt, etc., just search for wesnoth in your normal package manager to get an idea which ones are needed, every campaign has its own package)

* Upgrade packages with apt-get or aptitude. Make sure that only wesnoth packages are upgraded from Debian repository.

====Compiling====
If you choose to build the source you should add the datadir flag to ''configure'' to ensure your installation puts the data in the same place as the official installation path:

cd /usr/src
tar -xvzf wesnoth-1.x.x.tar.gz
cd wesnoth-1.x.x

On 10.0 and older, you can use YaST to add the installation sources. Furthermore, these packages are splitted into "wesnoth" (the game binary) and the data sets "wesnoth-data-base" and "wesnoth-data-full". If you want to be able to play the game, "wesnoth-data-base" is all you need, but you will be missing the full experience, because wesnoth-data-full includes larger images and music. Downloading "wesnoth-data-base" only is meant for slow-bandwidth downloaders. However if you select "wesnoth" in zen-updater or yast, it will automatically select "wesnoth-data-base" and "wesnoth-data-full" to deliver the full experience.

Bero: /* Ark Linux */ We include 1.3.9, not 1.3.4

= GNU/Linux =
Not all Distributions are always at the state of the current release. If you want to be sure to have the current version, please get the sources and compile it yourself.

=== Arch Linux ===
* For the official pkg from [extra]: <code>pacman -S wesnoth</code>
* dibblethewrecker also provides regular SVN snapshots. Please see [ http://dtw.jiwe.org/content.php?article.9 here] for details of how to access the repo. As development of wesnoth continues this repo is likely to follow the unstable branch.

=== Ark Linux ===
* Ark Linux includes an official wesnoth package, currently at version 1.3.9 Simply use the package installation tool to install the wesnoth package, or run <code>apt-get update; apt-get install wesnoth</code> (or <code>apt-get -t dockyard-devel install wesnoth</code> if you wish to run the current development version of wesnoth with all other packages from the stable tree)
* Users of other similar distributions can download the packages at [http://arklinux.osuosl.org/dockyard-devel the Ark Linux file server]. They are likely to run on any rpm based distribution that uses a recent version of gcc (>= 4.0) and glibc (>= 2.4).

=== Debian ===
* <code>apt-get install wesnoth</code> or
* <code>aptitude install wesnoth</code>
* [http://packages.debian.org/wesnoth Official packages] including the development releases in the experimental branch
* [http://backports.org/ backports.org] offers the stable wesnoth releases for Debian stable

====Compiling====

If you want to play with the SVN version directly you may have to compile it yourself. See [http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/CompilingWesnoth Compiling Wesnoth].

'''To install the dependencies :'''

<code>aptitude install build-essential libsdl-image1.2-dev libfreetype6-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-net1.2-dev libfribidi-dev python-dev</code>

'''To compile it :'''
If you have already installed and older version of wesnoth, uninstall it by:

<code>aptitude purge wesnoth</code>

Note that will remove all your wesnoth configuration.
Then, download the source by wget, or your internet navigator. Save it in the /usr/src directory.
Now, it's very easy :

cd /usr/src
tar -xvzf wesnoth-1.x.x.tar.gz
cd wesnoth-1.x.x
./configure
make
sudo make install

You may have more information about this part in the [http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/CompilingWesnoth Compiling Wesnoth] page.

=== Ubuntu ===

====Feisty====
There is a version 1.2.6 available at the [http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=The+Battle+for+Wesnoth GetDeb.net] for both 32bit and 64bit Feistys.

Battle for Wesnoth 1.2.3-1 is included in the Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty's) universe collection. It works very well. You can install via System->Administration->Synaptic, via Applications->Add/Remove or aptitude/apt-get.

See the [http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Feisty#How_to_add_extra_repositories Ubuntu Starter Guide]'s section on adding the universe repositories.

====Edgy====
There is a version 1.2.4 available at the [http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=The+Battle+for+Wesnoth GetDeb.net] for 32bit Edgy.

Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft includes binaries for Wesnoth 1.1.8 in its universe repository, so if you're happy with this version, just upgrade to Edgy Eft. But be aware that this version is completely outdated and there is no official mp-server running for it. Better try to update to a more recent version, like one from the 1.2.x stable series.

====Dapper====
There is a version 1.2.3 available at the [http://www.getdeb.net/app.php?name=The+Battle+for+Wesnoth GetDeb.net] for 32bit Dapper.

Battle for Wesnoth 1.0.1-1 is included in Ubuntu Dapper's universe collection. This is the (really old) stable release of the 1.0.x series. As this is not the latest version, Breezy users will need to do one of the following to obtain the latest version:
*Upgrade to the Dapper Drake, or
*Use the Breezy-Backports repository,
*Use an unofficial repository, or
*Build from the source per Debian above, or
*Use the generic binary for GNU/Linux found on the [[Download]] page.
Of these options, the final one is most likely the easiest at this time, while building from source is the most reliable.

====Other====
Do not attempt to install the debian package and associated dependencies using ''dpkg'' as you will break your environment! (Though we had no comment of anything in the system being broken after installing Wesnoth from a Debian rep, in fact the Debian binaries are exactly what is used for Ubuntu, too)

After considering the warning above, if you would still like to use more updated Wesnoth packages in Debian Etch on your installation of Ubuntu Edgy (notice that the following instruction itself might be flawed, in addition to introducing Debian packages to your installation):

* Add a Debian etch mirror to your /etc/apt/sources.list, e.g.
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ etch main
* Add to /etc/apt/preferences, or create it with the following content
Package: *
Pin: release o=Ubuntu
Pin-Priority: 995

Package: wesnoth
Pin: release o=Debian
Pin-Priority: 996

Package: wesnoth-data
Pin: release o=Debian
Pin-Priority: 996

(You need to repeat this for each of wesnoth-music, wesnoth-server, wesnoth-httt, etc., just search for wesnoth in your normal package manager to get an idea which ones are needed, every campaign has its own package)

* Upgrade packages with apt-get or aptitude. Make sure that only wesnoth packages are upgraded from Debian repository.

====Compiling====
If you choose to build the source you should add the datadir flag to ''configure'' to ensure your installation puts the data in the same place as the official installation path:

cd /usr/src
tar -xvzf wesnoth-1.x.x.tar.gz
cd wesnoth-1.x.x
./configure --datadir=/usr/share/games ...
make
sudo make install

=== Fedora ===
Battle for Wesnoth is included in [http://fedoraproject.org/ Fedora]. The current version of Battle for Wesnoth is available for ppc, i386, and x86_64 architectures. If you have problems with these packages, or other questions, please contact the Fedora maintainer [mailto:bpepple_AT_fedoraproject.org Brian Pepple].

To install simply run:
* <code>yum install wesnoth wesnoth-tools wesnoth-server</code>

=== Gentoo ===
For the stable release just type:
* <code>emerge wesnoth</code>

For the development release you will have to fetch an overlay, eg from this site:
http://www.dorf.wh.uni-dortmund.de/priv/markus/wesnoth-dev.tbz
extract it to your local overlay-directory and then type
<code>emerge wesnoth-dev</code>
The ebuild will be updated whenever the person creating the ebuild finds the time to do so.

Or if you're too impatient to wait and willing to take the risk of things blowing up, download
and extract the overlay, make a copy of the highest available ebuild version, but change the version number to
that of Wesnoth version you want (for instance, wesnoth-dev-1.3.2.ebuild might become
wesnoth-dev-1.3.8.ebuild ), run
<code>ebuild [new ebuild file] digest</code>
and then try to emerge. It may or may not work, depending on exactly how extensive the changes in the Wesnoth
source are--going from 1.3.2 to 1.3.8 this way worked for me.

For building from svn tree download the portage overlay from:
http://www.dorf.wh.uni-dortmund.de/priv/markus/wesnoth-svn.tbz
extract it to your local overlay-directory and then type
<code>emerge wesnoth-svn</code>

wesnoth-dev are the official development releases
while wesnoth-svn will build straight from SVN-source tree to keep you up to date with the lastest changes and all the errors ;-)
updating wesnoth-svn will not work ! you have to reemerge it each time you want to update !

=== KateOS ===
Packages of Battle for Wesnoth for [http://www.kateos.org KateOS] can be downloaded from:
[http://sfery.org/pkgportal/index.php?section=packages sfery.org]

You can also add this link: http://sfery.org/kateos/community-unstable to repo list and install BfW by <code>updateos -i wesnoth</code> or by [http://wikidoc.kateos.org/index.php/KatePKG-en KatePKG] graphical tool.
This is recommended way - all the necessary dependent packages will be downloaded and installed automatically.

Only version '''1.3.6''' of BfW is available.

'''Currently Battle for Wesnoth v1.3.6 is available in offcial KateOS repo (testing for now)'''

=== klik ===
* The most easy way to testdrive BfW is provided via [http://klik.atekon.de/ klik]. klik enables clients to create distribution-independent binaries which require no "installation" (the base system remains untouched); its created "AppDir" bundles run even from USB stick or CD RW. klik support is pre-enabled on Knoppix and Kanotix Live CDs. Other distros need to install a small klik client (less than 20 kByte download, less than 20 seconds effort). See the [http://klik.atekon.de/wiki/index.php/User%27s_FAQ klik FAQ] for details.

=== [[SuSE]] / [http://www.opensuse.org OpenSUSE] ===

These are builds of The Battle For Wesnoth for several SUSE Linux distributions, made for both i386 and x86_64 architecture. On SUSE Linux 10.1 and above, as well as on SLED, just use the zen-updater and add these directories to your available services (as ZYPP). On 10.0 and older, you can use YaST to add the installation sources. Furthermore, these packages are splitted into "wesnoth" (the game binary) and the data sets "wesnoth-data-base" and "wesnoth-data-full". If you want to be able to play the game, "wesnoth-data-base" is all you need, but you will be missing the full experience, because wesnoth-data-full includes larger images and music. Downloading "wesnoth-data-base" only is meant for slow-bandwidth downloaders. However if you select "wesnoth" in zen-updater or yast, it will automatically select "wesnoth-data-base" and "wesnoth-data-full" to deliver the full experience. If you have problems with these packages, or other questions, please contact [http://en.opensuse.org/User:Hhetter123 Holger Hetterich].

* [http://packages.debian.org/wesnoth Official packages]
* [http://debian.wesnoth.org/sarge Wesnoth 1.0 backport for Sarge]
===> about this backport, maybe an issue with an unresolvable dependancy, the "ttf-dejavu" package which is required but does not belong to sarge main archive. If someone could confirm ? [ 4 october 2005 ]This package is required but it is in backports for sarge
"'''deb http://www.backports.org/debian/ sarge-backports main'''"
and works without any problems [24.05.2006].

====> 8 October: adding

deb http://ftp.tr.debian.org/debian/ unstable main
deb-src http://ftp.tr.debian.org/debian/ unstable main

to /etc/apt/sources.list,

Package: wesnoth
Pin: version 1.0-1sarge*

====Compiling====
If you want to install the latest Development version you may have to compile it yourself. See [http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/CompilingWesnoth Compiling Wesnoth].

'''To install the dependencies :'''
<code>aptitude install libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-net1.2-dev libfreetype6-dev</code>

Remains one package : libintl which isn't in the Debian packages database, but I think you can install it by

<code>aptitude install gettext</code>

If someone may confirm that ... (Confirmed under Ubuntu 6.06 LTS but make sure that g++ and make are installed too.)

'''To compile it :'''
If you have already installed and older version of wesnoth, uninstall it by :

<code>aptitude purge wesnoth</code>

Note that will remove all your wesnoth configuration.
Then, download the source by wget, or your internet navigator. Save it in the /usr/src directory.

Bero: /* Ark Linux */ 1.3.2

= GNU/Linux =
Not all Distributions are always at the state of the current release. If you want to be sure to have the current version, please get the sources and compile it yourself.

=== Arch Linux ===
* For the official pkg from [extra]: <code>pacman -S wesnoth</code>
* dibblethewrecker also provides regular SVN snapshots. Please see [ http://dtw.jiwe.org/content.php?article.9 here] for details of how to access the repo. As development of wesnoth continues this repo is likely to follow the unstable branch.

=== Ark Linux ===
* Ark Linux includes an official wesnoth package, currently at version 1.3.2 Simply use the package installation tool to install the wesnoth package, or run <code>apt-get update; apt-get install wesnoth</code> (or <code>apt-get -t dockyard-devel install wesnoth</code> if you wish to run the current development version of wesnoth with all other packages from the stable tree)
* Users of other similar distributions can download the packages at [http://arklinux.osuosl.org/dockyard-devel the Ark Linux file server]. They are likely to run on any rpm based distribution that uses a recent version of gcc (>= 4.0) and glibc (>= 2.4).

=== Debian ===
* <code>apt-get install wesnoth</code> or
* <code>aptitude install wesnoth</code>
* [http://packages.debian.org/wesnoth Official packages]
* [http://debian.wesnoth.org/sarge Wesnoth 1.0 backport for Sarge]
===> about this backport, maybe an issue with an unresolvable dependancy, the "ttf-dejavu" package which is required but does not belong to sarge main archive. If someone could confirm ? [ 4 october 2005 ]This package is required but it is in backports for sarge
"'''deb http://www.backports.org/debian/ sarge-backports main'''"
and works without any problems [24.05.2006].

====> 8 October: adding

deb http://ftp.tr.debian.org/debian/ unstable main
deb-src http://ftp.tr.debian.org/debian/ unstable main

to /etc/apt/sources.list,

Package: wesnoth
Pin: version 1.0-1sarge*
Pin-Priority: 1001

Package: wesnoth-data
Pin: version 1.0-1sarge*
Pin-Priority: 1001

Package: *
Pin: release a=stable
Pin-Priority: 700

Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 650

Package: *
Pin: release a=unstable
Pin-Priority: 600

to /etc/apt/preferences and then installing ttf-dejavu with

apt-get install -t unstable ttf-dejavu

worked for me ;-)

====Compiling====
If you want to install the latest Development version you may have to compile it yourself. See [http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/CompilingWesnoth Compiling Wesnoth].

'''To install the dependencies :'''
<code>aptitude install libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-net1.2-dev libfreetype6-dev</code>

Remains one package : libintl which isn't in the Debian packages database, but I think you can install it by

<code>aptitude install gettext</code>

If someone may confirm that ... (Confirmed under Ubuntu 6.06 LTS but make sure that g++ and make are installed too.)

'''To compile it :'''
If you have already installed and older version of wesnoth, uninstall it by :

<code>aptitude purge wesnoth</code>

Note that will remove all your wesnoth configuration.
Then, download the source by wget, or your internet navigator. Save it in the /usr/src directory.
Now, it's very easy :

cd /usr/src
tar -xvzf wesnoth-1.x.x.tar.gz
cd wesnoth-1.x.x
./configure
make
make install

You may have more information about this part in the [http://www.wesnoth.org/wiki/CompilingWesnoth Compiling Wesnoth] page.

=== Ubuntu ===

Battle for Wesnoth 1.0.1-1 is included in Ubuntu Dapper's universe collection. This is the (really old) stable release of the 1.0.x series. As this is not the latest version, Breezy users will need to do one of the following to obtain the latest version:
*Upgrade to the Dapper Drake, or
*Use the Breezy-Backports repository,
*Use an unofficial repository, or
*Build from the source per Debian above, or
*Use the generic binary for GNU/Linux found on the [[Download]] page.
Of these options, the final one is most likely the easiest at this time, while building from source is the most reliable.

Ubuntu 6.10 Edgy Eft includes binaries for Wesnoth 1.1.8 in its universe repository, so if you're happy with this version, just upgrade to Edgy Eft. But be aware that this versuib is completely outdated and there is no official mp-server running for it. Better try to update to a more recent version, like one from the 1.2.x stable series.

See the [http://help.ubuntu.com/starterguide/C/faqguide-all.html#addinguniverse Ubuntu Starter Guide]'s section on adding the universe repositories.

Do not attempt to install the debian package and associated dependencies using ''dpkg'' as you will break your environment! (Though we had no comment of anything in the system being broken after installing Wesnoth from a Debian rep, in fact the Debian binaries are exactly what is used for Ubuntu, too)

After considering the warning above, if you would still like to use more updated Wesnoth packages in Debian Etch on your installation of Ubuntu Edgy (notice that the following instruction itself might be flawed, in addition to introducing Debian packages to your installation):

* Add a Debian etch mirror to your /etc/apt/sources.list, e.g.
deb http://http.us.debian.org/debian/ etch main
* Add to /etc/apt/preferences, or create it with the following content
Package: *
Pin: release o=Ubuntu
Pin-Priority: 995

Package: wesnoth
Pin: release o=Debian
Pin-Priority: 996

Package: wesnoth-data
Pin: release o=Debian
Pin-Priority: 996

(You need to repeat this for each of wesnoth-music, wesnoth-server, wesnoth-httt, etc., just search for wesnoth in your normal package manager to get an idea which ones are needed, every campaign has its own package)

* Upgrade packages with apt-get or aptitude. Make sure that only wesnoth packages are upgraded from Debian repository.

====Compiling====
If you choose to build the source you should add the datadir flag to ''configure'' to ensure your installation puts the data in the same place as the official installation path:

cd /usr/src
tar -xvzf wesnoth-1.x.x.tar.gz
cd wesnoth-1.x.x
./configure --datadir=/usr/share/games ...
make
sudo make install

=== Fedora Core ===
Battle for Wesnoth is included in [http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/ Fedora Extras], which is enabled in Fedora by default. The current version of Battle for Wesnoth in Fedora 5, Fedora 6, and the development branch is 1.2, and is available for ppc, i386, and x86_64 architectures. If you have problems with these packages, or other questions, please contact the Fedora maintainer [mailto:bpepple_AT_fedoraproject.org Brian Pepple].

To install simply run:
* <code>yum install wesnoth wesnoth-tools wesnoth-server</code>

=== Gentoo ===
For the stable release just type:
* <code>emerge wesnoth</code>

For the development release, the latest development release is in portage but is currently masked
* <code>echo games-strategy/wesnoth >> /etc/portage/package.unmask</code>
* <code>emerge wesnoth</code>

For building from svn tree download the portage overlay from:
http://www.dorf.wh.uni-dortmund.de/priv/markus/wesnoth-svn.tbz
extract it to your local overlay-directory and then type
<code>emerge wesnoth-svn</code>

wesnoth-dev are the official development releases
while wesnoth-svn will build straight from SVN-source tree to keep you up to date with the lastest changes and all the errors ;-)
updating wesnoth-svn will not work ! you have to reemerge it each time you want to update !

=== KateOS ===
Packages of Battle for Wesnoth for [http://www.kateos.org KateOS] can be downloaded from:
[http://kateos.enter5.pl kateos.enter5.pl]

You can also add this link to repo list and install BfW by <code>updateos -i wesnoth</code> or by [http://wikidoc.kateos.org/index.php/KatePKG-en KatePKG] graphical tool.
This is recommended way - all the necessary dependent packages will be downloaded and installed automatically.

There are versions 1.2.4 and 1.0.2 BfW available.

=== klik ===
* The most easy way to testdrive BfW is provided via [http://klik.atekon.de/ klik]. klik enables clients to create distribution-independent binaries which require no "installation" (the base system remains untouched); its created "AppDir" bundles run even from USB stick or CD RW. klik support is pre-enabled on Knoppix and Kanotix Live CDs. Other distros need to install a small klik client (less than 20 kByte download, less than 20 seconds effort). See the [http://klik.atekon.de/wiki/index.php/User%27s_FAQ klik FAQ] for details. A [http://wesnoth.klik.atekon.de/ BfW-specific klik website] has links to help with the package. Once the klik client is installed, look at this:

=== [[SuSE]] / [http://www.opensuse.org OpenSUSE] ===

These are builds of The Battle For Wesnoth for several SUSE Linux distributions, made for both i386 and x86_64 architecture. On SUSE Linux 10.1 and above, as well as on SLED, just use the zen-updater and add these directories to your available services (as ZYPP). On 10.0 and older, you can use YaST to add the installation sources. Furthermore, these packages are splitted into "wesnoth" (the game binary) and the data sets "wesnoth-data-base" and "wesnoth-data-full". If you want to be able to play the game, "wesnoth-data-base" is all you need, but you will be missing the full experience, because wesnoth-data-full includes larger images and music. Downloading "wesnoth-data-base" only is meant for slow-bandwidth downloaders. However if you select "wesnoth" in zen-updater or yast, it will automatically select "wesnoth-data-base" and "wesnoth-data-full" to deliver the full experience. If you have problems with these packages, or other questions, please contact [mailto:ozzy_AT_metal-district.de Holger Hetterich].

** [http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/suparun/wesnoth-1.1.1-x86-Opkg.tar.gz?download wesnoth-1.1.1-x86-Opkg.tar.gz]
** [http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/suparun/wesnoth-1.0.1-x86-Opkg.tar.gz?download wesnoth-1.0.1-x86-Opkg.tar.gz]
** This is NOT a static binary distribution, it resolves dependencies at runtime.
* Wesnoth 0.8.8 static binary (by Yann): http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wesnoth/wesnoth-i386-static?download (needs the [http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wesnoth/wesnoth-0.8.tar.gz?download source tarball] for the data - run it with the path to the unpacked data as argument)
