Appendix A. Installation Guide

Note

Windows users may use the installer which installs the application with all required libraries. Linux users may also look for binary packages for their distributions. See the downloads page for more information. The information provided in this chapter is only necessary if you intend to build the program from sources.

Requirements

The program can be built using the standard qmake tool from Qt. Simple configure scripts are available for both Linux and Windows which create a configuration file and run qmake with appropriate parameters. See detailed instructions in the following sections.

Note

There is a bug in Qt versions 4.4.0 and 4.4.1 which makes the tree view incorrectly expand and/or collapse nodes when changing sort order. A patch for this bug is included in the source package. This bug does not occur in Qt versions prior to 4.4 and it is fixed in versions 4.4.2 and newer.
