HowTo build [[FlightGear]] stable (<u>[[Changelog_3.4|3.4]]</u>) or bleeding edge development version, hereinafter simply called <u>[[GIT]]</u>, on [http://www.debian.org/ Debian] GNU/Linux Stable (<u>Wheezy</u>). Users of Testing or Unstable at least have to change package names (version numbering) accordingly.

The meaning of this article is to be a short, '''checklist''' like, overview of the specific steps to compile FlightGear and components on Debian. For more detailed information please refer to the main article [[Building_FlightGear_-_Linux | Building FlightGear on Linux]].

== Build and install ==
Because we are going to install versions different to the ones in the Debian repositories, it is recommended to install FlightGear in a place independent of the base system, such as <code>/usr/local/FG-3.4</code> or <code>$HOME/FG-3.4</code>. This way also has the advantage of easily managing several FlightGear versions, even with different versions of OpenSceneGraph and/or plib, simply by altering the installation prefix. I suggest to make this directory writeable by the user so there is no need to become root for the <code>make -j2 install</code> commands. We'll use <code>$FG_INSTALL_DIR</code> as a [http://www.cmiss.org/cmgui/wiki/SettingEnvironmentVariablesInBash placeholder] for this directory. <br />

Another placeholder will be <code>$FG_SRC_DIR</code>, it stands for the absolute path to the directory which is supposed to keep the folders of the various source codes. So, in the instructions below, you have to replace these with the local paths or even <code>export</code> them (in every terminal you're using them) for the process:

Have in mind that the data is a relatively large download (GIT about 8 GiB (required disk space 18 GiB) and growing / 3.4 about 1.1 GB). So, to save some time, it is a good idea to [[#FlightGear data|fetch]] it while building the sources. <br />

<!--
=== libboost ===
=== libfltk ===
<u>Debian 7.x/Wheezy</u> only! <br />
[http://www.fltk.org/ FLTK] is required for [[fgadmin]], which is content with libfltk-1.1, and fgrun, which minimum is libfltk-1.3.
<u>3.6</u> and <u>GIT</u>: <br />
Unfortunately version 1.52 or newer is recommended while Wheezy ships with 1.49:
cd $FG_SRC_DIR
<nowiki>wget -O boost_1_52_0.tar.bz2 http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.52.0/boost_1_52_0.tar.bz2/download</nowiki>
tar xjf boost_1_52_0.tar.bz2
cp -R boost_1_52_0/boost $FG_INSTALL_DIR/include/
For cmake to find this alternate libboost version it has to be told where to look for it. Use the following cmake commands instead of the ones given at the respective part. <br />
SimGear:
cmake -D Boost_INCLUDE_DIR="$FG_INSTALL_DIR/include/" \
      -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH="$FG_INSTALL_DIR" $FG_SRC_DIR/simgear.git
Flightgear:
cmake -D Boost_INCLUDE_DIR="$FG_INSTALL_DIR/include/" \
      -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH="$FG_INSTALL_DIR" $FG_SRC_DIR/flightgear.git


<u>Wheezy</u>: Just install package "libfltk1.3-dev" if you're planning to use either of them. <br />
<u>Squeeze</u>: For fgadmin just install package "libfltk1.1-dev". To compile fgrun, too, build and install FLTK-1.3 instead:
<nowiki>cd $FG_SRC_DIR
wget http://ftp.easysw.com/pub/fltk/1.3.2/fltk-1.3.2-source.tar.gz
tar xzf fltk-1.3.2-source.tar.gz
cd fltk-1.3.2
./configure --enable-shared --prefix=$FG_INSTALL_DIR
make -j2 install</nowiki>
Fgadmin will be automatically built if libfltk is found. To force not to build fgadmin even if libfltk is in your system, add "-DENABLE_FGADMIN=OFF" to the cmake command while building flightgear (see below)
