**GF 3.4.8** has not been released yet
|
||||
|
||||
What's new? See the [Release notes release-3.4.8.html].
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
== Binary packages ==
|
||||
|
||||
| **Platform** | **Download** | **How to install**
|
||||
| MacOS X | [gf-3.4.8-bin-intel-mac.tar.gz gf-3.4.8-bin-intel-mac.tar.gz] | ``sudo tar -C /usr/local -zxf gf-3.4.8-bin-intel-mac.tar.gz``
|
||||
%| Fedora (32-bit) | [Fedora RPMs /~hallgren/tmp/Fedora/] | ``sudo rpm -i ...``
|
||||
| Ubuntu (32-bit) | [gf_3.4.8-1_i386.deb gf_3.4.8-1_i386.deb] | ``sudo dpkg -i gf_3.4.8-1_i386.deb``
|
||||
| Ubuntu (64-bit) | [gf_3.4.8-1_amd64.deb gf_3.4.8-1_amd64.deb] | ``sudo dpkg -i gf_3.4.8-1_amd64.deb``
|
||||
| Windows | [gf-3.4.8-bin-windows.zip gf-3.4.8-bin-windows.zip] |
|
||||
%| ... | ... | ...
|
||||
|
||||
%More binary packages might be added later.
|
||||
|
||||
===Notes===
|
||||
|
||||
%The Windows package is installed by just unpacking it anywhere.
|
||||
%It finds the libraries relative to the ``.exe`` file.
|
||||
|
||||
The ``.deb`` packages work on Ubuntu 12.04, 12.10 and 13.04.
|
||||
|
||||
%The ``.pkg`` package works on MacOS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard).
|
||||
The MacOS tar package works on 10.6 (Leopard), 10.7 (Lion)
|
||||
and 10.8 (Mountain Lion).
|
||||
|
||||
The MacOS and Linux ``.tar.gz`` packages are designed to be installed in ``/usr/local``.
|
||||
You can install them in other locations, but then you need to set the
|
||||
``GF_LIB_PATH`` environment variable:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
export GF_LIB_PATH=/usr/local/share/gf-3.4.8/lib
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
where ``/usr/local`` should be replaced with the path to the location where you
|
||||
unpacked the package.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
==Installing the latest release from source==
|
||||
|
||||
[GF is on Hackage http://hackage.haskell.org/package/gf], so the prodedure is
|
||||
fairly simple:
|
||||
|
||||
+ Install the [Haskell Platform http://hackage.haskell.org/platform]
|
||||
version 2013.2.0.0 or 2012.4.0.0 (see notes 2&3 below)
|
||||
+ ``cabal update``
|
||||
+ On Linux: install some C libraries from your Linux distribution
|
||||
(see note 1 below)
|
||||
+ ``cabal install gf``
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
You can also download the full source package from here:
|
||||
[``gf-3.4.8.tar.gz`` gf-3.4.8.tar.gz].
|
||||
|
||||
=== Notes ===
|
||||
|
||||
The above steps installs GF for a single user.
|
||||
% and does not require root privileges.
|
||||
The executables are put in ``$HOME/.cabal/bin``
|
||||
(or, with recent versions of the Haskell platform on Mac OS X,
|
||||
in ``$HOME/Library/Haskell/bin``), so it is a good
|
||||
idea to put a line in your ``.bash_profile`` to add that directory to you path:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
PATH=$HOME/.cabal/bin:$PATH
|
||||
```
|
||||
or
|
||||
```
|
||||
PATH=$HOME/Library/Haskell/bin:$PATH
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**Note 1**.
|
||||
GF uses [``haskeline`` http://hackage.haskell.org/package/haskeline], which
|
||||
on Linux depends on some non-Haskell libraries that
|
||||
won't be installed automatically by cabal, and therefore need to be installed
|
||||
manually. Here is one way to do this:
|
||||
|
||||
- On Ubuntu: ``sudo apt-get install libghc6-terminfo-dev``
|
||||
- On Fedora: ``sudo yum install ghc-terminfo-devel``
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
**Note 2**.
|
||||
We recommend using GHC 7.6 (which is part of the Haskell Platform 2013.2.0.0)
|
||||
or GHC 7.4 (which is part of the Haskell Platform 2012.4.0.0).
|
||||
Older versions of GHC (6.12 and 7.0) still works for the most part.
|
||||
(For example, there is a issue with error reporting in ``gf -server``
|
||||
when compiled with GHC 7.0.)
|
||||
%GF does **not** compile with the most recent versions of Alex (>=3.0).
|
||||
|
||||
**Note 3**.
|
||||
[The Haskell Platform for Mac OS X http://hackage.haskell.org/platform/mac.html]
|
||||
page states that you need Xcode 3.2 or later, but in fact it appears you need
|
||||
Xcode 3.2.3 or later. If you have Xcode 3.2.2, you can get an error from the
|
||||
linker: ``ld: unknown option: -no_pie``.
|
||||
|
||||
=== Known problems ===
|
||||
|
||||
There seems to be a bug in some versions of Cabal that can cause
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
Distribution/Simple/PackageIndex.hs:124:8-13: Assertion failed
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
if GF is
|
||||
already installed. If you encounter this, you can use ``ghc-pkg unregister gf``
|
||||
to remove the installed version of GF and ``ghc-pkg list gf`` to verify that
|
||||
it is gone.
|
||||
|
||||
==Installing from the latest developer code==
|
||||
|
||||
The first time:
|
||||
%, assuming you already have the Haskell Platform and darcs
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
darcs get --lazy http://www.grammaticalframework.org/ GF
|
||||
cd GF
|
||||
cabal install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Subsequently:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
cd GF
|
||||
darcs pull -a
|
||||
cabal install
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, you can get the code from the
|
||||
[GF GitHub https://github.com/GrammaticalFramework/GF/] mirror, which is
|
||||
updated nightly.
|
||||
|
||||
The above notes for installing from source apply also in these cases.
|
||||

|
||||
