Install

The following will help you get μTox installed on your computron/toaster/carrier pigeon. The focus of this guide is to get you running ASAP. And mostly deals with precomplied binaries. If you're looking to contribute (you're the real MVP) you're probably looking for Building.

For any and all of the following, you'll need to have toxcore installed first.

• Unix-like
• OS X
• Windows
• Android

## Unix-like

Dependencies:

dbus filter_audio freetype libvpx openal v4l xext xrender cmake

1. First compile:

   mkdir build
   cd build
   cmake ..
   make all

2. Then install:

   sudo make install

If make/install really isn't your thing, you can try some precomplied binaries.

• amd64
• i686

Adding a desktop launcher

Assuming that repository working copy is your current directory.

1. Copy .desktop entry

   sudo cp ./utox.desktop /usr/share/applications/utox.desktop

2. Make it executable

   sudo chmod +x /usr/share/applications/utox.desktop

3. Add an icon

   sudo cp ./icons/utox-128x128.png /usr/share/pixmaps/utox.png

Archlinux

If you're lucky enough to use Archlinux, someone has an AUR package just for you!

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/utox-git/

## OS X

No one is currently providing binaries for OSX yet... Sorry Apple people... you should ask @stal888 to do something about that!

I guess I'll try to build it.

## Windows

Installing on windows isn't really a thing yet... you can download the nighties. They should just work.

• 32-bit
• 64-bit
• Updater (delayed, ask grayhatter for it, and it'll happen)

## Android

uTox.apk

Meta

Jenkins offers automatically compiled binaries. All files below link to the last successful build.
