Windows Build and Installation Instructions:

Be sure to install Gtk# for Windows when building in Visual Studio.

Linux Build and Installation Instructions:

Building Pinta requires the following software (instructions are for Ubuntu 20.04, but should be similar for other distributions):

sudo apt install make automake autoconf mono-devel gtk-sharp2 intltool

Pinta only supports version 2.8 or higher of Mono.

To build Pinta, run:

./autogen.sh

make

sudo make install

or if building from a tarball, run:

./configure

make

sudo make install

To use different installation directory than the default (/usr/local), run this instead:

./autogen.sh --prefix=<install directory>

To uninstall Pinta, run:

sudo make uninstall

To clean all files created during the build process, run:

make cleanall

Note This will require you to rerun autogen.sh in order to run more make commands.

For a list of more make commands, run:
