Celestia Install instructions for UNIX
--------------------------------------
You need to have the following components installed before Celestia
will build: OpenGL (tested with Mesa 3.4), glut, libjpeg, and libpng.
Then, assuming you've collected all the necessary libraries, here's
what you need to do to build and run Celestia:
configure
make
make install
Celestia can be built with or without support for Gtk, by default the Gtk+
version will be built if you have Gtk+ and GtkGLArea available, otherwise it
just uses GLUT and has no GUI. If you need/want to build the non-Gtk+ version
even though you have Gtk+ and GtkGLArea, run configure with --without-gtk:
configure --without-gtk
The GtkGLArea widget thats is required in order to build Celestia with Gtk+ may
be downloaded from http://www.student.oulu.fi/~jlof/gtkglarea/
Celestia will be installed into /usr/local by default, with data files landing
in /usr/local/share/Celestia , but you may specify a new location with the
--prefix option to configure:
configure --prefix=/home/my_directory
All the other usual configure parameters apply; you may see which options
are available using 'configure --help'
