- <title>Installing Geeqie</title>
- </head>
- <body>
- <div id="downloading">
- <h2>Downloading</h2>
- <p>Geeqie is available as a package with some distributions.</p>
- <p>
- The source tar of the latest formal release may be downloaded:
- <a href="http://geeqie.org/geeqie-1.3.tar.xz">http://geeqie.org/geeqie-1.3.tar.xz</a>
- </p>
- <p>However Geeqie is stable, and you may download the latest version (if you have installed git) from here:</p>
- <p>
- Either:
- <code>git clone git://www.geeqie.org/geeqie.git</code>
- </p>
- <p>
- Or:
- <code>git clone http://www.geeqie.org/git/geeqie.git</code>
- </p>
- <h2>Installation</h2>
- <p>
- List compile options:
- <code>./autogen.sh --help</code>
- </p>
- <p>
- Common options:
- <code>./autogen.sh --disable-gtk3</code>
- ,
- </p>
- <p>
- Compilation:
- <code>./autogen.sh [options]; make -j<no. of cpu cores></code>
- </p>
- <p>
- Install:
- <code>[sudo] make install</code>
- </p>
- <p>
- Removal:
- <code>[sudo] make uninstall</code>
- </p>
- <h4>Note:</h4>
- <p>The zip and gzip files at geeqie.org and GitHub contain only the sources - they cannot, by themselves, be used to install Geeqie.</p>
- <p>
- It is recommended to always use
- <code>git clone git://www.geeqie.org/geeqie.git</code>
- to download Geeqie. After installing Geeqie you may delete the folder you have cloned Geeqie into.
- </p>
- <p>However if you leave the folder intact, whenever new features or patches are available, execute:</p>
- <p>
- <code>git pull; sudo make uninstall; sudo make maintainer-clean; ./autogen.sh; make -j<no. of cpu cores>; sudo make install</code>
- </p>
- <p>Only the changed sources are downloaded, which makes this a quick operation.</p>
- <p>Your configuration file, history file and desktop files are not affected by this process.</p>
- <h2>Notes and changes for the latest release</h2>
- <p>
- See the NEWS file in the installation folder, or
- <a href="https://github.com/BestImageViewer/geeqie/blob/master/NEWS">Geeqie News at GitHub</a>
- </p>
- <p>
- And either the ChangeLog file or
- <a href="http://geeqie.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=geeqie.git;a=shortlog">Geeqie ChangeLog</a>

- <h2>Requirements</h2>
- <h3>Required libraries:</h3>
- <pre>
- <code>
- GTK+ 3.00
- www.gtk.org
- enabled by default
- disable with configure option: --disable-gtk3
- or
- GTK+ 2.20
- disabled by default when GTK+3 libraries are found.
- enable with configure option: --disable-gtk3
- optional items map display and GPU acceleration are not available
- with GTK2
-
- Note: GTK+3 is still somehow experimental. It is needed for some
- features but we have several complains about the GTK+3 usability.
-
- So if you need a stable version, you are advised to compile it
- with GTK+2. If you want to play with the cool new features, use
- GTK+3.
