Unstable Source Code

Amoebax's source code is kept in a subversion that can be accessed right from your web browser.

If you want to download and compile the latest unstable source code you'll need the following requirements:

• A Subversion client, version 1.3.0 or better.
• GNU Autoconf version 2.59 or better.
• GNU Automake version 1.9 or better.
• GCC version 3.3 or better.
• GNU Make version 3.80 or better.
• Development packages of SDL, version 1.2.7 or better.
• Development packages of SDL_image, version 1.2.5 or better.
• Development packages of SDL_mixer, version 1.2.7 or better.

Once all requirements are installed, execute the following commands:

svn co svn://svn.emma-soft.com/amoebax/trunk amoebax
cd amoebax
./autogen.sh

Now you should get a configure script file in your amoebax directory. Now you can follow the tarball installation instructions to build and, optionally, install this unstable up-to-date version of Amoebax.

If you want to stay up to date with new changes in Amoebax's source code, you can execute the following command, inside the amoebax directory:

svn update
