Building darktable
NOTE: This information was migrated from https://redmine.darktable.org/projects/darktable/wiki/Building_darktable_22 It contains a lot of outdated information and needs to be updated.
- General build instructions
- Ubuntu 20.04.1 and 20.10
- Ubuntu 22.04
- Fedora
- openSUSE
- Debian 8 Jessie
- Arch Linux
- Linux Mint 18
- Gentoo Linux
- Manjaro Linux 18.0
First, install git, clone the repository and check out the latest stable release:
git clone https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable.git
cd darktable
git submodule init
git submodule update
# Stay on the master branch to compile latest development version, or
# find the latest release, e.g. release-3.4.0:
git checkout release-3.4.0
Then install the dependencies (listed below) and build:
./build.sh
To build all the docs (must be run after ./build.sh script):
./build-doc.sh
- Build status: PASS
- Tested with darktable 3.2.1 and darktable 3.4

The following two optional dependencies can't be installed using official repository (but can be done manually or using other repositories):
- Ubuntu 20.04 and 20.10 ship with libgmic-dev 2.4.5 and darktable requires >= 2.7, so it can't be installed using official's repository.
- libavif is available with the package libavif-dev, but only available on Ubuntu hirsute (future version of Ubuntu)
- Build status: PASS
- Tested with darktable 4.4.0, 4.4.2, 4.6, 4.8

There is a package in the arch user repository (AUR) called darktable-git. At the time of writing this was rather out of date.
sudo pacman -S base-devel cmake intltool lensfun curl exiv2 lcms2 librsvg libxslt sqlite pugixml
sudo pacman -S openexr libwebp flickcurl graphicsmagick libcups libsoup libgphoto2 sdl mesa-libgl dbus-glib osm-gps-map

Note that osmgpsmap 1.0.2 does not exist in the mint package archive. We can use the same resolution to the problem in Ubuntu 14.04 above by adding the ubuntu trusty-backports source and installing from there. Update the country code in the deb source below (or your favourite mirror):
echo 'deb http://au.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-backports main restricted universe multiverse' | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/additional-repositories.list
echo 'Package: *
Pin: release a=trusty-backports
Pin-Priority: 100' | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/preferences
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libosmgpsmap-1.0-dev
Create the missing pkg-config file:
echo 'prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
includedir=${prefix}/include
Name: osm-gps-map
Description: Moving map widget using openstreet map data

Note: need sse3 USE flag to be set by adding sse3 to /etc/portage/make.conf, e.g.

Rebuild:
emerge --update --deep --newuse @world
emerge --depclean
emerge --ask dev-util/cmake dev-util/intltool dev-libs/libxslt x11-libs/gtk+ dev-libs/libxml2 media-libs/lensfun gnome-base/librsvg dev-db/sqlite net-misc/curl media-libs/libjpeg-turbo media-libs/tiff media-libs/lcms dev-libs/json-glib media-gfx/exiv2 dev-libs/pugixml

Optional dependencies that are missing from the package archive:
sci-geosciences/osm-gps-map which is present in the gentoo archives is too old. Build from source:
emerge --ask dev-libs/gobject-introspection x11-libs/cairo gnome-base/gnome-common dev-util/gtk-doc
git clone git://github.com/nzjrs/osm-gps-map
cd osm-gps-map
./autogen.sh
make
su
make install
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib64/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
echo 'export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib64/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH' >> ~/.bash_profile
media-libs/openjpeg is version 2.1.0, need 1.x, so we build from source:
git clone https://github.com/uclouvain/openjpeg.git
cd openjpeg
git tag # find latest 1.x tag
git checkout version.1.5.2 # latest tag from previous line
cmake .
make
su
mkdir /usr/local/share/pkgconfig/
make install
For one of the dependencies of fop (dev-java/sun-jms-1.1-r2), we need to do this:
Fetch instructions for dev-java/sun-jms-1.1-r2: *
- Due to license restrictions, we cannot fetch the
- distributables automagically.
-
- Accept the License Agreement
-
- Download jms-1_1-fr-apidocs.zip
-
- Move the file to /usr/portage/distfiles
Note that after copying the zipfile into /usr/portage/distfiles/, I needed to do the following, or the emerge would fail:
su
chmod a+r /usr/portage/distfiles/jms-1_1-fr-apidocs.zip
Then:
emerge --ask virtual/jdk app-text/gnome-doc-utils dev-java/fop media-gfx/imagemagick app-text/docbook-xml-dtd app-text/docbook-xsl-stylesheets
Note: Saxon 6.5 is not present in the Gentoo package archive (the dev-java/saxon package will give you saxon-he 9.3 rather than saxon 6.5 as required by darktable). To install saxon 6.5:
download the saxon 6.5 zip file from http://saxon.sourceforge.net/#F6.5.5.
su
mkdir -p /usr/local/share/java/
unzip saxon6-5-5.zip -d /usr/local/share/java/saxon6-5-5
mkdir -p /usr/share/java
cd /usr/share/java
ln -s /usr/local/share/java/saxon6-5-5/saxon.jar
ln -s /usr/local/share/java/saxon6-5-5/saxon-xml-apis.jar
echo '#!/bin/sh
exec java -classpath /usr/share/java/saxon.jar com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet "@0"' > /usr/local/bin/saxon-xslt
chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/saxon-xslt
emerge --ask app-text/po4a
- Build status: Testing
In addition to the standard installation, the following packages have to be installed.
sudo pacman -S cmake intltool libcurl-gnutls intltool llvm6 llvm6-libs clang
In the standard installation of Manjaro all optional packages are already installed for darktable.
sudo pacman -S gnome-doc-utils fop docbook-xml docbook-xsl
Additional saxon6 is required but the installation from AUR does not work and saxon6 has to be installed manually.
First download the saxon 6.5 zip file from http://saxon.sourceforge.net/#F6.5.5 and switch to the folder with the downloaded zip file.
Now run the following commands:
sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/share/java/
sudo unzip saxon6-5-5.zip -d /usr/local/share/java/saxon6-5-5
cd /usr/share/java
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/java/saxon6-5-5/saxon.jar
sudo ln -s /usr/local/share/java/saxon6-5-5/saxon-xml-apis.jar
echo '#!/bin/sh' | sudo tee /usr/local/bin/saxon-xslt
echo '' | sudo tee -a /usr/local/bin/saxon-xslt
echo 'exec java -classpath /usr/share/java/saxon.jar com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet "@0"' | sudo tee -a /usr/local/bin/saxon-xslt
sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/saxon-xslt
Finally Oracle Java must be installed from AUR and set as default.
sudo yaourt jdk
Check which jdk has been installed in your system.
archlinux-java status
Now set Oracle Java as the default jdk.
sudo archlinux-java set java-11-jdk
sudo pacman -S po4a
