HOWTO: Install ZSNES from SVN

Post by Aerdan »

DOS/Windows
Download: http://nsrt.edgeemu.com/zget.zip
Extract all files, and run the zget.exe application.

Debian x86

Code: Select all

su
apt-get install build-essential nasm autoconf automake libsdl1.2-dev zlib1g-dev libpng12-dev subversion mesa-common-dev libao-dev
exit
cd ~
rm -rf zsnes
svn co https://svn.bountysource.com/zsnes/trunk/ zsnes
cd zsnes/src
./autogen.sh --enable-libao
make
su
make install
exit
Debian AMD64
Follow these steps, then proceed within your 32-bit chroot as with Debian x86.

Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu PC

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install build-essential nasm autoconf automake libsdl1.2-dev zlib1g-dev libpng12-dev subversion mesa-common-dev libao-dev
cd ~
rm -rf zsnes
svn co https://svn.bountysource.com/zsnes/trunk/ zsnes
cd zsnes/src
./autogen.sh --enable-libao
make
sudo make install
Gentoo x86/AMD64

Code: Select all

emerge subversion
sudo -s
echo 'PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/neoportage"' >> /etc/make.conf
cd /usr/local
svn co svn://oldos.org/neoportage/trunk neoportage
emerge zsnes
Other Distributions
You need to install the following:
  • gcc
  • g++
  • make
  • autoconf
  • automake
  • nasm
  • SDL plus related devel package
  • libpng plus related dev package
  • zlib plus related dev package
  • ncurses plus related dev package, for the debugger [add '--disable-debugger' after ./autogen.sh [put a space between autogen.sh and the option] to disable]
  • mplayer, for recording movies into other formats
  • subversion
  • libao plus related dev package, this will be mandatory soon
Then follow these steps:

Code: Select all

cd ~
rm -rf zsnes
svn co https://svn.bountysource.com/zsnes/trunk/ zsnes
cd zsnes/src
./autogen.sh
make
su
make install
exit
Updating ZSNES from SVN:
This doesn't apply to DOS, Windows, or Gentoo.

Code: Select all

cd ~/zsnes
svn up
cd src
rm makefile.dep
make makefile.dep
make
su
make install
exit

Note, if you get an error when compiling in Ubuntu complaining about "gl.h" being missing, you can resolve that problem by reinstalling the mesa-common-dev package.

For those of you who fail at compiling, try downloading binaries from here at your own risk:
