Installation instructions for Debian 6.0 (Squeeze)

This instruction was written for the 11.05 release of SvxLink.

There are no binary packages for Debian but it is quite easy to compile SvxLink from source. First, install a couple of packages that SvxLink depend on. In a terminal, type the following commands as user 'root'.

apt-get update
apt-get install g++ make libsigc++-1.2-dev libgsm1-dev libpopt-dev tcl8.4-dev libgcrypt-dev libspeex-dev libasound2-dev alsa-utils

If you need Qtel you also need the QT development libraries.

apt-get install libqt3-mt-dev

Download and compile the source code and then install it:

wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/svxlink/files/svxlink/11.05/svxlink-11.05.tar.gz
tar xvzf svxlink-11.05.tar.gz
cd svxlink-11.05
make
make install

You also need to download and install the sound files (e.g. sounds-en_US-heather-11.05.tar.bz2) as described in the main installation instruction if you want to run SvxLink Server.

Now go back to the installation page and read the post install stuff chapter.
