InstallSrcArch - sm0svx/svxlink GitHub Wiki
This instruction was written for the 17.12 release of SvxLink.
There are no binary packages for Arch Linux but it is quite easy to compile SvxLink from source. First, install a couple of packages that SvxLink depend on. In a terminal, type the following commands.
pacman -Sy cmake make gcc pkg-config libsigc++ gsm tcl speex alsa-utils opus rtl-sdr doxygen groff
If you need Qtel you also need the QT development libraries.
pacman -S qt4
Download and compile the source code and then install it:
curl -Lo svxlink-maint.tar.gz https://github.com/sm0svx/svxlink/archive/maint.tar.gz tar xvzf svxlink-maint.tar.gz cd svxlink-maint/src mkdir build cd build cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DSYSCONF_INSTALL_DIR=/etc -DLOCAL_STATE_DIR=/var .. make make doc useradd -r -g daemon svxlink make install ldconfig
You also need to download and install the sound files (e.g. svxlink-sounds-en_US-heather-13.12.tar.bz2) as described in the main installation instruction if you want to run SvxLink Server.
Now go back to the installation page and read the post install stuff chapter.
