Dependencies: To be able to succesfully build Timbl from the tarball, you need the following pakages:
To install Mbt, first consult whether your distribution's package manager has an up-to-date package.
To compile and install manually from source instead:
$ bash bootstrap.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install
This requires you have all the necessary dependencies. If you want to
automatically download and install the latest stable versions of the required
dependencies, then run ./build-deps.sh prior to the above. You can pass a
target directory prefix as first argument and you may need to prepend sudo to
ensure you can install there.
A Dockerfile for a container build is also available, specify --build-arg VERSION=development if you want the latest
development version rather than the latest stable release as shipped with Alpine Linux.
