Compiling rvthtool

Linux

On Debian/Ubuntu, you will need build-essential and the following development packages:

• cmake pkg-config libgmp-dev nettle-dev libudev-dev
• For the Qt GUI: qtbase5-dev qttools5-dev qttools5-dev-tools

On Red Hat/Fedora, you will need to install "C Development Tools and Libraries" and the following development packages:

• cmake gmp-devel nettle-devel libudev-devel
• For the Qt GUI: qt-devel qt5-linguist

Clone the repository, then:

• cd rvthtool
• mkdir build
• cd build
• cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
• make
• sudo make install

Building .deb Packages

You will need to install the following:

• devscripts
• debhelper

In order to build debug symbol packages, you will need:

• Debian: debhelper >= 9.20151219
• Ubuntu: pkg-create-dbgsym

In the top-level source directory, run this command:

• debuild -i -us -uc -b

Assuming everything builds correctly, the .deb packages should be built in the directory above the top-level source directory.

Windows

The Windows version requires one of the following compilers: (minimum versions)

• Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 with the Windows 7 SDK
• gcc-4.5 with MinGW-w64

You will also need to install CMake, since the project uses the CMake build system.

Clone the repository, then open an MSVC or MinGW command prompt and run the following commands from your rom-properties repository directory:

• mkdir build
• cd build
• cmake .. -G "Visual Studio 15 2017"
• make

Replace "Visual Studio 15 2017" with the version of Visual Studio you have installed. Add "Win64" after the year for a 64-bit version.

See README.md for general usage information.
