Getting the latest CVS snapshot
|
|
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can always get the latest Qucs version from our CVS repository.
|
|
|
|
Please use an official release if you want to work with Qucs. The CVS
|
|
|
|
version might not even compile.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
$ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/qucs \
|
|
|
|
co qucs
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Press 'Enter' when asked for a password. Run `sh autogen.sh' and
|
|
|
|
`configure' with the appropriate options. Maintainance currently
|
|
|
|
requires Autoconf version 2.57 and GNU automake 1.7.0.
