There are five main options for installing Snoopy:
-
From your Linux distribution repositories: Your distribition maintainers may already have packaged Snoopy for you. Simply try the install command (i.e.
apt install snoopy
on Ubuntu) and keep your fingers crossed. Package may be named slightly differently, though, likelibsnoopy
. -
From upstream package repositories: Snoopy maintainers provide binary package repositories for certain Linux distributions. Here is a guide for installing Snoopy from upstream package repositories.
-
Automated build from release tarballs: An install script is provided that builds and installs Snoopy from source. Here is a guide for building from source.
-
Manual build from release tarballs: Build and install directly from released sources on your own. The same guide for building from source contains relevant information.
-
Manual build from git repository: This method is essentially almost the same as installing (manually) from release tarballs. Therefore, the guide for building from source also contains bits related to building directly from a git repository clone.
