- New baseline minimum platform is Ubuntu 22.04
- Qt6 requires at least 6.2
- some deprecations may be flagged on later versions (e.g. 6.8)
- CMake requires at least 3.22
- Include build-tests.yml github action to validate builds on mulitple platforms
- QtTest is no longer optional since it easily comes along for the ride with Qt

================================
|
|
|
|
## General
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
- g++
|
|
- CMake 3.22+
|
|
- Qt6 6.2+ Development Packages ( Qt6Core, Qt6Widgets, Qt6PrintSupport, Qt6Xml, Qt6Svg, Qt6Test )
|
|
- zlib 1.2+ Development Package
|
|
|
|
> Even if the above library packages are installed, their corresponding development packages
|
|
> may also need to be installed. Development packages are usually named something like
|
|
> libraryName-dev or libraryName-devel.
|
|
|
|
### Compile and Install
|
|
|
|
gLabels uses the CMake meta build system. Use the following commands to build and install gLabels:
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
$ cd <i>glabels_source_directory</i>
|
|
$ mkdir build
|
|
$ cd build
|
|
$ cmake ..
|
|
$ make
|
|
$ sudo make install
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Example: Ubuntu 24.04
|
|
|
|
### Installing Prerequisites
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo apt install cmake
|
|
$ sudo apt install qt6-base-dev qt6-svg-dev qt6-tools-dev zlib1g-dev
|
|
```
|
|
_QREncode (Optional)_
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo apt install pkgconf libqrencode-dev
|
|
```
|
|
_Zint (Optional)_
|
|
|
|
Install zint from source:
|
|
```
|
|
$ wget https://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/zint/zint/2.6.3/zint-2.6.3_final.tar.gz
|
|
$ tar xzf zint-2.6.3_final.tar.gz
|
|
$ cd zint-2.6.3.src/
|
|
$ mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && make
|
|
$ sudo make install
|
|
```
|
|
_GNU Barcode (Optional)_
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo apt install barcode
|
|
```
|
|
### Compile and Install gLabels
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ cd glabels-qt
|
|
$ mkdir build
|
|
$ cd build
|
|
$ cmake ..
|
|
$ make
|
|
$ sudo make install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Example: Fedora 35
|
|
|
|
### Installing Prerequisites
|
|
We assume the build system already has things like cmake and the GNU C++ suite installed.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo dnf install qt5-qtbase-devel qt5-qtsvg-devel qt5-linguist qt5-qttools
|
|
```
|
|
These installs will pull in additional packages to fill out their prerequisites.
|
|
Fedora has a different package naming scheme that Ubuntu. This is to distinguish the QT6
|
|
packages from the QT3 and QT4 packages that they still support for compatibility.
|
|
If the Cmake pass or build has missing package errors or warnings, you can search for the needed
|
|
package with:
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo dnf search qt6 |grep <package name substring>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Compile and Install gLabels into /usr/local
|
|
```
|
|
$ cd glabels-qt
|
|
$ mkdir build
|
|
$ cd build
|
|
$ cmake ..
|
|
$ make
|
|
$ sudo make install
|
|
|
|
``` |
