Developing On Linux Audacity Wiki. Peter 1. 5Jan. 17 To. Do 1 This page really should be updated and maintained to deal with buiding the latest Audacity, otherwise it is of limited value. Users on Linux and Unix systems often compile Audacity from source code to experiment with the latest version, or even the latest code in Git. Hub. This page describes the requirements for the latter case, i. Overview. Compiling Audacity, or any GNULinux application for that matter, is basically a six stage process. Install build tools the applications needed to create other applications. MP3_Plugin_Found.png' alt='How To Install Gstreamer Windows 8' title='How To Install Gstreamer Windows 8' />Install dependencies other software used by the application you are trying to compile. Download the source code into a local directory. Configure the compile with options, if any. The first and second stages are crucial lack of build tools and required dependencies are the cause of 9. This page should help with that. The standard commands to compile a piece of software for stages 4, 5 and 6 are as follows, issued from within the local directory containing the source code.

Build Tools Most Linux distributions come with the core set of development tools already installed, but if not you will need to install the following packages, probably from your distributions package manager. Shell. The configure script for Audacity is generated for a bourne compatible shell. It is very unlikely that your system does not have one of these, but if in doubt, install the Bash shell. GNU Make Other Makes may work, but may well not. Make on any Linux system will be GNU make. CMake  CMake is required to build libsoxr which is the Audacity default resampling library. GCC at least the C and C compilers from GNU Compiler Collection. The only other compiler actively maintained by the Audacity development team is Microsofts Visual C, although we welcome patches to make Audacity compile with other compilers, for example the Open. Solaris compiler. There is another free C compiler for Windows Pelles C. Pelles C is a complete development kit for Windows and Windows Mobile. It contains among other things an. So you are planning to switch from Windows to Linux, or have just switched to Linux, Then, here are the 20 useful Linux commands for Newbies. Install opencv in CentOS Opencv can be install in CentOS in two ways 1 Install from available yum repository. But till the time of writing this post opencv2. Maemo is a software platform developed by Nokia for smartphones and Internet tablets. The platform comprises both the Maemo operating system and SDK. Autoconf Application which writes configure scripts. Needed to modify the build system. Automake Application which writes Makefiles. Needed to modify the build system. Git Source code version control application. Patch Application for applying patches to files. GDB The GNU Debugger for debugging crashes see note below. In order to build the translations for Audacity the GNU gettext  tools are required. These are normally installed in order to be able to build wx. Widgets see below. Dependencies Audacity requires relatively few libraries and tools to build a minimum working application. There are then a larger number of optional libraries that extend Audacity to enable more features and facilities. Its therefore up to you whether you install these or not. If you dont install them, then decide later you need the extra features, you will need to rebuild Audacity after installing the extra libraries. Note that some Linux distributions make a practice of splitting each library they package into two parts, those required for running applications using the library, and all the other files only needed when compiling applications using the library. The latter are often found in a package with a dev suffix to the name. For the purposes of these instructions, whenever a library is listed as being needed, it means that both parts are needed in order to compile Audacity. Prerequisites These libraries are required to build Audacity. Widgets The main requirement to build Audacity is wx. Widgets. WX 3. 0 is required, preferably 3. Older wx. GTK 3. 0. Audacity working. Audacity supports for Linux and other Unices requires the wx. GTK implementation of wx. Widgets. There is no support for wx. Qt, wx. X1. 1 or other wx variants, as they are incomplete in key areas. The GTK headers are also required as Audacity includes extensions to wx. GTK which need the underlying toolkit headers to compile. Whilst building Audacity with a standard distribution supplied wx. GTK 3. 0. 2 package will work fine, it will be difficult to debug some features as wx. Widgets will have been built in Release mode even if the debugging symbols package has been installed. For Audacity development you will want to compile wx. GTK from source in debug mode, thus obtaining both a full set of debug symbols and additional checking in the wx. Widgets code. This copy of wx. Widgets does not have to be installed as the system copy, provided that the WXCONFIG environment variable is used to tell the configure script to use the debug build. For example if your debug build of wx. Widgets is in homeuserdevwxbuild then run. WXCONFIGhomeuserdevwxbuildwx config. Audacity as you would if it was placed before the invocation. We also have some notes on the libraries already supplied with different Linux Distributions. For example, Ubuntu tend to update to newer libraries sooner than Debian do. Audacity. It is almost certainly already installed on your system, although you may have to install the development package see above. It is rarely necessary to compile libsndfile from source, although a copy is also included in Audacity on Git. Hub. Packages and features options The configure script of Audacity gives the option to link in or not to link in a number of optional packages or features, and to link to a local or system version of the required libsndfile library. In the case of resampling libraries there is a choice of three packages but only one or none must be used. Audio Units plug in support Mac only defaultauto. XML file support local, system. FFmpeguse FFmpeg for import and export support. GStreamerinclude GStreamer importexport support. LADSPA plug in support defaultyes. FLAC for FLAC support local, system, none. MP3 ID3 tag support.

Touch for pitch and tempo changing defaultyes. Obtaining Audacity For development you will always want to obtain the Git. Hub HEAD version of Audacity so you can stay abreast of the latest changes. For more information, see our development code download page and Git. Hub. Configure possibilities for libraries range from whether to include them or not, and whether to use local or system versions. In almost all cases these are standard libraries, and only provided in Git. Hub for convenience, so if you have up to date versions installed as shared libraries you should select the external copies. The exceptions are Nyquist which we have modified to integrate it with Audacity, and Port. Audio which has had to be patched to make it work. Examples To enable support for ogg files. To use an external sndfile library which you have previously built and installed. To disable Nyquist. Compiling on Unix To compile Audacity on Linux or for that matter, Mac and most other Unix systems, use a modified configure make sequence.
