Installing Virtuoso - ewpatton/collustra GitHub Wiki

You may be able to install Virtuoso using a package manager for your distribution. For Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx, one can simply:

sudo apt-get install virtuoso-opensource

For Mac OS X with Macports installed, one can do:

sudo port install virtuoso

Clone the Virtuoso OSE repository to your machine and run autogen.sh:

git clone https://github.com/openlink/virtuoso-opensource.git
cd virtuoso-opensource
./autogen.sh

Autogen.sh will test for compatibility between your build environment and the minimum required versions to build virtuoso. Install any missing or outdated packages using the appropriate package manage for your system.

Next, configure virtuoso for building. This is done via ./configure --prefix=<path/to/install/to>. For the purposes of this guide, we will assume prefix=/opt/virtuoso.

Once configure completes:

make
make install    # may require sudo depending on value of <prefix>
