Installing from sources
Currently, the only intended way to install Matita is starting from its source
In order to build Matita from sources you will need some tools and libraries.
They are listed below.
-Note for Debian users
-
-If you are running a Debian GNU/Linux distribution you can have APT install all
-the required tools and libraries by adding the following repository to your /
-etc/apt/sources.list:
+Note for Debian (and derivatives) users
- deb http://people.debian.org/~zack unstable helm
+If you are running a Debian GNU/Linux distribution, or any of its derivative
+like Ubuntu, you can use APT to install all the required tools and libraries
+since they are all part of the Debian archive.
+apt-get install ocaml ocaml-findlib libgdome2-ocaml-dev liblablgtk2-ocaml-dev
+liblablgtkmathview-ocaml-dev liblablgtksourceview-ocaml-dev
+libsqlite3-ocaml-dev libocamlnet-ocaml-dev libzip-ocaml-dev libhttp-ocaml-dev
+ocaml-ulex08 libexpat-ocaml-dev libmysql-ocaml-dev camlp5
-and installing the helm-matita-deps package.
+An official debian package is going to be added to the archive too.
Required tools and libraries
SQL database and OCaml bindings for its client-side library
- The SQL database itself is not strictly needed to run Matita, but we
- stronly encourage its use since a lot of features are disabled without it.
- Still, the OCaml bindings of the library are needed at compile time.

-Database setup
+(optional) MySQL setup
-To fully exploit Matita indexing and search capabilities you will need a
-working MySQL database. Detalied instructions on how to do it can be found in
-the MySQL documentation. Here you can find a quick howto.

In order to create a database you need administrator permissions on your MySQL
installation, usually the root account has them. Once you have the permissions,
