Building on Linux

Debian / Ubuntu

• Download qt5 packages, for Qt 5.5 or newer you need to install web engine and use --web-engine parameter

# Install necessary packages
sudo apt-get install cmake qtwebengine5-dev qtmultimedia5-dev qtbase5-dev-tools
# Audio may be enabled if you have all required packages
./configure --extension --no-audio --web-engine
cd release/huggle
make

• Download and install Qt 5.7 or newer: https://www.qt.io/download-open-source
• Download and install CMake: https://cmake.org/download/

./configure --extension --web-engine --qtpath <path_to_your_qt>
cd release/huggle
make

Note: qtpath is path to root folder of Qt version you want, for example ~/Qt/qt5.7_gcc/

In order to install all extensions you need to enter huggle_release folder and execute

# Run huggle to init, exit after you start it
./huggle

# Copy all extensions there
cp extensions_list/*/*.so /home/`whoami`/.local/share/Wikimedia/Huggle/extensions/
