== Prerequisites == | |||
Before embarking on building your own FlightGear binaries, you must have already installed the necessary tools to compile the source code with. These preliminary tools are | |||
* build-essential | |||
* git | |||
* subversion | |||
* cmake | |||
* automake | |||
They can be installed quite simply by running the following command line. | |||
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential git subversion cmake automake | |||
Once these tools are installed, the download_and_compile.sh script can be run. It will install possibly needed additional tools and libraries as it runs. | |||
