Build - adjacentlink/emane GitHub Wiki

The following instructions are for building distribution packages from EMANE source. The emane git repository master branch always contains the latest EMANE release. Older versions are available as tags. Use the develop branch for access to the latest non-stable source.

See the Install page for information on installing EMANE from pre-built packages.

General Build Instructions

The general steps to build EMANE are the same across all distributions.

  1. Install the required build dependencies. The following dependencies are available via your distribution package manager:

    1. libxml2
    2. libpcap
    3. pcre
    4. libuuid
    5. protobuf
    6. python-protobuf
    7. python-lxml

    Dependency package names vary slightly between distributions. Consult the below instructions for distribution specifics.

  2. Clone the EMANE repo:

    # git clone https://github.com/adjacentlink/emane.git

  3. Build and install EMANE:

    # cd emane
# ./autogen.sh && ./configure --prefix=/usr && make install
