Compiling and Installing Yate from SVN on Debian

Revision as of 18:22, 11 December 2012

Prerequisites

apt-get install build-essential
apt-get install autoconf
apt-get install subversion

Get the sources

Once you have the svn client installed getting the sources is a simple command:

cd /usr/src
svn checkout http://voip.null.ro/svn/yate/trunk yate
cd yate

This will fetch a copy of the SVN TRUNK in a new directory called yate.

Prepare and configure the sources

./autogen.sh
Finished! Now run configure. If in doubt run ./configure --help

This script will warn if autoconf is missing and will prepare a configure script for you if everything is OK. You can now run the configure script:

./configure
checking for local operating system type... Linux
checking for libraries directory name... lib
checking for g++... g++
