To build Drumlabooh form the source, you need to install some dependencies first. Drumlabooh is based on JUCE. JUCE source code will be fetched by configuration process, but JUCE needs additional libraries.
Dependencies (Debian/Ubuntu packages names):
pkgconf libasound2-dev libfreetype6-dev libx11-dev libxcomposite-dev libxcursor-dev libxext-dev libxinerama-dev libxrandr-dev libxrender-dev
Dependencies (Arch packages names):
alsa-lib freetype2 libx11 libxcomposite libxcursor libxext libxinerama libxrandr libxrender
Install them if not installed, and then, under sudo or root:
mkdir b
cd b
cmake ..
make
make installThis installs LV2 and VSTi versions of the plugin to /usr/local/lib/LV2 and /usr/local/lib/VST3 by default. To redefine te destination dir, set another dest dir via CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX variable. For example, from /usr/local to /usr:
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ..By default, Drumlabooh cmake file fetches and installs the all drumkits from https://github.com/psemiletov/drum_sklad. You can turn this behavior off using cmake .. -DINSTALLKITS=OFF option, and make the separated data package with drum kits from
