The KDE Education Project
How to obtain Kalzium
Blinken should be included with your distribution in the kdeedu package.
Latest stable version (2.2.x) is in SVN branches/4.2/KDE, in the kdeedu module and was shipped with KDE 4.2.
Linux Binary Packages
Kalzium is shipped out by the distributors with the kdeedu package. Some like Debian build separate packages for every application hosted by the KDE Edu Project.
Source Tarballs
KDE itself offers a tarball containing the sources of the kdeedu module. It can be found on the KDE download page. Follow the instructions in the INSTALL file inside.
SVN
You can fetch the source code from the SVN repository. This small tutorial will show you how to fetch, compile, and install the latest development version of Kalzium. If you need other versions, please refer the official "Subversion with KDE" tutorial.
SVN Client Version
Ensure that you have a SVN client version 1.1 or later installed on your machine.
Fetching the Sources
Follow these steps:
$ svn co svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/branches/KDE/4.3/kdeedu $ cd kdeedu
Compiling and Installing
To compile and install Kalzium change into the kdeedu directory. Now follow these steps:
$ mkdir build $ cd build $ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$KDEDIRS -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull .. $ cd libkdeedu $ make $ su -c "make install" $ cd ../ $ cd kalzium $ make $ su -c "make install"
Last command will prompt you to enter the root password.
