Dependencies

Ubuntu

sudo apt install libsdl2-dev qttools5-dev-tools pyqt5-dev-tools python3-pyqt5 python3-pyqt5.qtopengl

PyPi

To install just the Python dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt --user

Note

This will not install the other system dependencies which are listed above.

You can also drop the --user flag and run as root user if you want to install system-wide, but this is not recommended, as this will likely screw up your distro's package management.

Install

First, run python setup.py build followed by python setup.py install to install

python setup.py build
python setup.py install --user

Note

If you use the --user flag, make sure ~/.local/bin is in your user's path environment variable.
