'''Getting the packages you need with yum:'''[[BR]]

After doing a fresh desktop install of Fedora I usually add these:

{{{
sudo yum install   ant ant-contrib ant-manual autogen automake autoconf boost boost-devel cmake cppunit cppunit-devel cvs gcc-c++ byacc expat-devel fftw flex git subversion libjpeg-turbo-devel freetype freetype-devel  fftw-devel  java-1.6.0-openjdk-devel libcurl-devel libcurl libpng-devel libpng libtool libXmu libXmu-devel minizip-devel podofo podofo-devel qt qt-devel swig thunderbird xemacs xemacs-common xemacs-info.noarch xemacs-packages-base.noarch xemacs-packages-extra-info.noarch xemacs-packages-extra.noarch yasm yasm-devel zlib-devel
}}}


'''Make a workspace:'''[[BR]]


I have several workspaces under /work

{{{
/work/osgeo
/work/geoeye
/work/drb
}}}

To build the osgeo side:

I have files that I source.  One for osgeo one for geoeye.  So I can source one or the other and then build test code.  So in my bash start up scripts I start with no ossim stuff set.  Since we're building osgeo I do:

$ cd  // cd to home

Source my osgeo setup file.  This sets OSSIM_HOME, OSSIM_PREFS_FILE and so on.  File contents at end:
$ . ossimrc-osgeo

$ cd /work/osgeo

First time through check out code.  Note I don't like to check out the whole trunk so I do pieces.

I always build libtiff, geotiff, gdal from the latest.  You don't have to, it's up to you.

// Get libtiff[[BR]]
$ cvs -d :pserver:cvsanon@cvs.maptools.org:/cvs/maptools/cvsroot co libtiff

// Get geotiff:[[BR]]
svn co http://svn.osgeo.org/metacrs/geotiff/trunk/libgeotiff

// The gdal source code is available via svn (subversion) server on
http://svn.osgeo.org/gdal/trunk/gdal

// Get gdal:
svn co http://svn.osgeo.org/gdal/trunk/gdal gdal
