building and installing dosemu2 from sources
==============================================
-> REQUIREMENTS for dosemu2:
- fdpp of the latest version, for now from git or from PPA:
https://code.launchpad.net/~dosemu2/+archive/ubuntu/ppa
of from COPR:
https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/stsp/dosemu2/
- gcc >= 3.3 or clang >= 3.7.0
- glibc >= 2.20
- linux >= 3.16 for x86-64, >= 4.7 recommended.
With older version than 3.16 there may be some problems
with DPMI, especially make sure to not use 3.14 and 3.15.
linux >= 4.3 for i386.
linux >= 4.11 if you want to run 32bit dosemu under x86_64 kernel
with multilib environment (you likely don't want to do this).
- x86 (i386/x86-64) target CPU
- bison and flex
- SDL >= 2.0.6, >= 2.0.15 is recommended (older versions may not have
scaling filters and KMS rendering working).
- udev >= 240 recommended for KVM (execution acceleration)
- libslirp >= 4.1.0 recommended for networking
- json-c >= 0.13 recommended
- development libraries: Xext, slang, gpm, alsa, fluidsynth,
ladspa, libao can be used when available.
This means that Ubuntu Focal or Fedora 31 are the minimum
recommended systems.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Compile
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
First you should run:
./autogen.sh
Then either:
./default-configure
make
or
- create a seperate directory and run
$SRCDIR/configure (or $SRCDIR/default-configure; see below)
make
in that directory.
- If you want dosemu2 executable with debug info, then add -d parameter
to default-configure on the previous step. But expect the debug build
to work considerably slower than the release build!
- sudo make install
You can now start dosemu2 by typing "dosemu". But if you didn't install
comcom32, dosemu2 may not find command.com. We recommend to install
the pre-compiled comcom32 package either from PPA or COPR. Or you can
instead download it from here:
https://dosemu2.github.io/comcom32/files/comcom32.zip
unzip to ~/.dosemu/drive_c and symlink as command.com.
You may not want to build comcom32 from sources unless you know how
to install djgpp.
