 ====== Building Metlibs and Diana with Autotools ======
-  * Download source 3.29.2
+**OUTDATED:** //This page is no longer up to date, diana and metlibs are now built using cmake.//
-    *  [[ftp://ftp.met.no/projects/diana/metlibs-4.7.0.tar.gz|metlibs-4.7]]
-    * [[ftp://ftp.met.no/projects/diana/diana-3.29.2.tar.gz|diana-3.29.2]]
-They both use a number of specially-written autoconf macros, which can be found in metlibs' ''m4'' subdirectory.
+This document describes how to build the Diana application and its main dependencies (Fimex and Metlibs) from source code, focusing on Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise) and Fedora 20. We provide commands to install further dependencies as they are needed, but this assumes that previous steps have been followed. For example, we list the common dependencies between Metlibs and Fimex as Fimex dependencies.
+===== General Prerequisites =====
-===== Prerequisites =====
+This section describes the basic set of packages that will be required to build the software.
+==== Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise) ====
-On a clean stock Ubuntu Lucid (10.04) install, you will first need to install build tools:
+On a clean stock Ubuntu Precise (12.04) install, you will first need to install build tools:
-  * ''build-essential''
+<code>
-  * ''gfortran''
+sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf automake libtool subversion \
-  * ''autoconf''
+                     gfortran flex bison
-  * ''automake''
+</code>
-  * ''libtool''
-  * ''subversion''
+==== Fedora 20 ====
+On Fedora 20, this command has been found to install a reasonable base set of tools:
 <code>
-sudo apt-get install build-essential gfortran autoconf automake libtool subversion
+sudo yum install gcc-c++ make wget tar subversion autoconf automake \
+                 findutils libtool flex bison autoconf-archive \
+                 gcc-gfortran file
 </code>
-Next, you will need to install various third-party libraries that Metlibs and Diana depend on:

-Except for those marked with (*), ''configure'' will terminate with an error message if any required package is absent.
+Diana can be configured to be used for creating animations. If this is desired then libavformat and its development headers need to be installed. On Ubuntu 12.04, a package exists for the optional EMOSLIB dependency, required to support viewing of observation files. However, it is not available for every distribution.
