MediaKit INSTALL

Required software

You need to have the GNUstep core libraries installed in order to compile and use MediaKit. The core packages are, at a minimum:

  • gnustep-make

  • gnustep-base

  • gnustep-gui

  • gnustep-back

See http://www.gnustep.org/ for further information.

You also need to have the following FFmpeg libraries and Open Sound System support installed:

* libavcodec and libavformat

* oss

See http://ffmpeg.mplayerhq.hu/ and http://www.opensound.com/ for further information.

Finally you need from Etoile itself:

  • EtoileFoundation, which can be found in Etoile/Frameworks/EtoileFoundation

  • SystemConfig, which can be found in Etoile/Frameworks/SystemConfig

These last dependencies are automatically handled when MediaKit is built by running ‘make’ tool in Frameworks or any other parent directories.

Build and Install

Square brackets “[ ]” are used to indicate optional parameters.

Steps to build:

  • make

  • [sudo [-E]] make install
