### Build from Source
#### Dependencies
Install the following build dependencies:
`sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev yelp-tools graphviz-dev libgtk-3-dev`
At least libgtk v3.20 is required.
Get the Vala compiler from [here](https://download.gnome.org/sources/vala/)
Required version v0.48.5 or later.
Extract files to folder then run inside that folder:
```
./configure
make
sudo make install
```
#### Manually build
```
git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/moserial.git
cd moserial/
```
On 32 bit systems:
```
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
make
```
On 64 bit systems:
```
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --libdir '/usr/lib64' --build x86_64
make
```
Optional:
`sudo make install`
#### Build issues
A. If you see this error:
src/SerialConnection.c:31:21: fatal error: stropts.h: No such file or directory
then either:
1. sudo touch /usr/include/stropts.h
or
2. patch your posix.vapi file as described at
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=656690#c3
B. moserial does not implement the xmodem, ymodem, or zmodem protocols
directly. It relies on the standard rz and sz utilities to send and
receive data. These utilities, part of the lrzsz package, must be
installed on your system.
