### 2. Installation

### 2.1 How to obtain Kmud

You can download Kmud from the Homepage at http://www.kmud.de/ or per anonymous ftp from ftp://ftp.kmud.de/pub/kmud/

If you really want the latest snapshot (no matter if it compiles or not), you can checkout Kmud from the CVS-server. Just enter the following lines:

    cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@barney.cs.uni-potsdam.de:/home/cvs/kmud login
    CVS password: ano
    cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@barney.cs.uni-potsdam.de:/home/cvs/kmud checkout kmud

A snapshot of the development version in the CVS is made every night at 04:00:00 MET. You can download it at ftp://ftp.kmud.de/pub/kmud/kmud-snapshot.tar.gz

Don't forget to do a "make -f Makefile.dist" when got Kmud from the CVS or as the daily snapshot.

### 2.2 Requirements

You need Qt 1.x and the KDE 1.1.x libs to be installed to compile Kmud correctly.

The Qt libs can be found at http://www.troll.no/dl/qtfree-dl.html and the KDE libs at ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/stable/ or install them with the setup tool of your favorite distribution.

### 2.3 Compilation and installation

In order to compile and install Kmud on your system, type the following in the base directory of the Kmud distribution:

> `

>     % ./configure
>     % make
>     % make install (as root)

> `

Since Kmud uses

    autoconf

you should have not trouble compiling it.

Should you run into problems please report them to bugs@kmud.de or to the Kmud mailing list at kmud@kmud.de. See the Homepage at www.kmud.de how to subscribe to the mailing list. Please include a short description of your system (platform, distribution) and the config.log file generated by configure.
