Step by Step guide to building YAL on Linux

  1. Install the YAL dependencies (see the table below)
  2. Download YAL (http://vega.livecd.pl/~havner/yal/linux/yal-0.3-rc2.tar.bz2)
  3. Open a terminal window
  4. Extract the tarball with tar xjf ~/Downloads/yal-0.3-rc2.tar.bz2 (modify the path if you downloaded the tarball elsewhere)
  5. cd yal/trunk (still need to double check the extraction path)
  6. ./build-all.sh
  7. If there were no errors, you should now have a "bin" directory in yal/trunk
  8. Make the binary executable with chmod 755 bin/fs2_launcher
  9. Copy bin/fs2_launcher into your FS2 directory (or anywhere in your $PATH that you like)
  10. Optional: create a shortcut on your desktop


YAL Library Dependencies
Distribution Command to install dependencies
Fedora 16 64bit sudo yum install gcc gcc-c++ make qt qt-devel SDL-devel
Ubuntu 11.10 (& derivatives) 64bit sudo apt-get install build-essential libopenal qt4-qmake (check if we also need libqt4-devel?)
