Running Slic3r from git on GNU Linux
This document is divided into sections.
Notes/instructions specific to a particlar Linux distribution are included as a subsection of the main section. So the prerequisite instructions for Ubuntu 16.04 are listed in the Installing Prerequisites section, under Ubuntu 16.04. If you do not see a section for your distribution of choice then use the general instructions (if available) or translate the information from one of the other distributions to your own.
If you want to add instructions or suggest edits to this document, please create a github issue.
Slic3r requires a C++ compiler that suppports most of the C++11 spec. For GCC, this means 4.9 or newer is required (this is a hard requirement). Clang 3.3 should also work (and is used on OSX).
Slic3r works fine with Perl 5.12, 5.14, 5.18, 5.20, 5.22, 5.24: in other words all versions except for 5.16. If your distribution ships 5.16 it is recommend that you use Perlbrew for installing an alternative user-land perl. See below for Perlbrew-specific instructions. Some distributions have brokens perls, so using perlbrew is always a good idea.

$ quitecho "=media-gfx/slic3r-9999 **" >> /etc/portage/package.keywords/slic3r && emerge -av =media-gfx/slic3r-9999NOTE -- letting App-cpanminus do its thing on a Gentoo Linux system has a high chance of messing up your system image! Proceed with caution.
Install local::lib. This should let Slic3r's use of cpanm not break your system.

emerge App-cpanminus$ perlbrew install-cpanmChoose either Slic3r stable or master. master has more features, but may have more bugs, stable does not change as often.
$ git clone https://github.com/alexrj/Slic3r.git
$ cd Slic3r
$ git checkout -b origin/stable $ git clone https://github.com/alexrj/Slic3r.git
$ cd Slic3r
$ git checkout -b origin/master cd to the directory you cloned Slic3r to.
$ git pull$ export LDLOADLIBS=-lstdc++
$ perl Build.PL
$ perl Build.PL --guiCreate a file in your favorite text editor, call it slic3r and paste the following into it:
#!/bin/sh
perl ./slic3r.pl $*Mark it as executable with chmod +x slic3r
$ sudo CPANM=~/perl5/perlbrew/bin/cpanm perl Build.PL
$ sudo CPANM=~/perl5/perlbrew/bin/cpanm perl Build.PL --guiIf you get an error where CppGuess fails to build, use
export LDLOADLIBS=-lstdc++to set that flag and then try running perl Build.PL again. CppGuess usually only needs to be built once, so subsequent builds of Slic3r should not require that flag.
Use the fork https://github.com/lordofhyphens/Slic3r which is a patchset to produce a Debian package of current Slic3r.
