Latest Code from SVN

You can allways get the bleeding-edge fresh new experimental code from svn.
Most Linux distributions install svn by default, every brings it on disc or via online update.

You can also obtain it from svn.tigris.org (especially if you use Windows).

Getting the code is easy.

• First open a terminal (konsole, xterm, windows users call “cmd”)
• Now checkout the sources
  

  svn co https://cloudcity.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cloudcity

• This will create a directory “cloudcity” in the path wherever you are
  (usually $HOME, make sure you have write permissions here)
• For instructions how to compile the code, see the tarball section.

Tarballs

Source tarballs can be downloaded from SourceForge

How to compile
Download the tarball, open a terminal (konsole) and navigate to the directory where you downloaded the tarball, e.g.:

cd ~/downloads

Next, untar the tarball (x.y.z are just placeholders…)

tar -xjf bespin-x.y.z.tar.bz2

Enter the just created bespin directory

cd cloudcity

Configure

./configure

The configure script can detect a valid Qt4/KDE4 environment.

If your system lacks such, there will be error reports.
In case you can pass the Qt4 and KDE4 paths (along some other options, try)

./configure help

---

If anything went right, you can start compilation

make

---

No compile errors? Install the libraries / config dialog

make install

NOTICE: You need proper rights on the QT4 / KDE4 paths to perform this
If it fails, try

sudo make install

(You’ll need your administrator password here)

Some applications require that the certificate you are using is in the .pem (Privacy Enhanced Mail) Base64 encoded DER certificate format. If you have the certifiacte as a .pfx you can convert it using openssl like this…

openssl pkcs12 -in yourcert.pfx -out yourcert.pem -nodes
