Building From Source (for dummies) - drawpile/Drawpile GitHub Wiki
Building Drawpile on Debian Sid:
apt-get install build-essential cmake git libkf5archive-dev libqt5svg5-dev qtmultimedia5-dev mkdir ~/.local/src cd ~/.local/src git clone https://github.com/callaa/Drawpile.git cd Drawpile mkdir build && cd build cmake .. make sudo make install # (Optional)
If you want to make the debug build, only build the server, or have built Qt, use cmake options: cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debug -DCLIENT=off -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local/Qt-5.3.1 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH:STRING="/usr/local/Qt-5.3.1/lib" ..
