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

'''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

=== Ubuntu ===
 +
 +
Battle for Wesnoth 1.0.1-1 is included in Ubuntu Dapper's universe collection. This is the latest stable release. 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.
 +
 +
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!

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

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]: pacman -S wesnoth
  • 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.

Debian

===> 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 ]

====> 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 Compiling Wesnoth.

To install the dependencies : aptitude install libsdl1.2-dev libsdl-image1.2-dev libsdl-mixer1.2-dev libsdl-net1.2-dev libfreetype6-dev

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

aptitude install gettext

If someone may confirm that ...

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

aptitude purge wesnoth

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 Compiling Wesnoth page.

Ubuntu

Battle for Wesnoth 1.0.1-1 is included in Ubuntu Dapper's universe collection. This is the latest stable release. 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.

See the 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!

Compiling

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

cd /usr/src
