| 2 | To install a precompiled ARB |
|---|
| 3 | ================================================================================ |
|---|
| 4 | |
|---|
| 5 | 1. download the needed files from our homepage http://www.arb-home.de/ |
|---|
| 6 | and save them into a directory of your choice (i.e. ~/arb-install/ ) |
|---|
| 7 | |
|---|
| 8 | Files needed: 'arb.tgz' and 'arb_install.sh' |
|---|
| 9 | |
|---|
| 10 | 2. get root |
|---|
| 11 | 3. run arb_install.sh and follow the instructions |
|---|
| 12 | 4. Install packages needed by ARB: |
|---|
| 13 | |
|---|
| 14 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|---|
| 15 | 4a. If you're using Ubuntu please refer to: |
|---|
| 16 | |
|---|
| 17 | * the detailed list of packets to install for ARB: arb_UBUNTU.txt |
|---|
| 18 | * the package-install-script for ubuntu: SH/arb_installubuntu4arb.sh |
|---|
| 19 | |
|---|
| 20 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|---|
| 21 | 4b. Otherwise use your package manager to install the |
|---|
| 22 | software that is needed to run ARB: |
|---|
| 23 | |
|---|
| 24 | - xview |
|---|
| 25 | - (open)motif |
|---|
| 26 | - bash |
|---|
| 27 | - libpng |
|---|
| 28 | - xterm |
|---|
| 29 | |
|---|
| 30 | Only needed for Open GL version: |
|---|
| 31 | |
|---|
| 32 | - OPENGL |
|---|
| 33 | - libGLEW -- Open GL extensions library (see subdirectory lib/addlibs) |
|---|
| 34 | |
|---|
| 35 | |
|---|
| 36 | Software that is useful together with ARB: |
|---|
| 37 | |
|---|
| 38 | - gnuplot |
|---|
| 39 | - ghostview (gv) |
|---|
| 40 | - xfig (+ fig2dev to print from xfig) |
|---|
| 41 | - perl5 |
|---|
| 42 | - treetool |
|---|
| 43 | |
|---|
| 44 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|---|
| 45 | If you don't want to use the 3D features in ARB, you may as well install |
|---|
| 46 | the Non-OPENGL version of ARB: |
|---|
| 47 | |
|---|
| 48 | Instead of downloading arb.tgz, download arb_noOPENGL.tgz. |
|---|
| 49 | |
|---|
| 50 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|---|
| 51 | Libraries needed to run 32-bit ARB on 64-bit machine: |
|---|
| 52 | (checked on OpenSuSE 10.2) |
|---|
| 53 | |
|---|
| 54 | - openmotif-libs-32bit |
|---|
| 55 | |
|---|
| 56 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|---|
| 57 | If you get errors about missing libraries when calling arb, have a look if there |
|---|
| 58 | are different versions of the missing libraries in /usr/lib and create a link |
|---|
| 59 | there. |
|---|
| 60 | |
|---|
| 61 | Most likely you'll be missing libXm.so.4, so the following example describes |
|---|
| 62 | how to solve the problem for that library: |
|---|
| 63 | |
|---|
| 64 | # as superuser: |
|---|
| 65 | cd /usr/lib |
|---|
| 66 | ln -s libXm.so.4 libXm.so.3 |
|---|
| 67 | |
|---|
| 68 | |
|---|
| 69 | ================================================================================ |
|---|
| 70 | To build ARB from source |
|---|
| 71 | ================================================================================ |
|---|
| 72 | |
|---|
| 73 | 1. download the needed files from our homepage http://www.arb-home.de/ |

|---|
| 75 | |
|---|
| 76 | Files needed: 'arbsrc*.tgz' |
|---|
| 77 | |
|---|
| 78 | 2. Unpack the source |
|---|
| 79 | |
|---|
| 80 | e.g. |
|---|
| 81 | tar -zxvf arbsrc_2003_05_22.tgz |
|---|

|---|
| 83 | 3. Run |
|---|
| 84 | |
|---|

|---|
| 87 | and follow the instructions there. |
