Installation of the Debian packages


If you are using a Debian -similar) system you can use Gilles Filippini's Debian packages. Thanks to Gilles Filippini <gilles.filippini at free.fr>:

There are two binary packages:

You need to install both packages to have online documentation. The nted package alone is fully functionnal but has no documentation.

Furthermore there is an "official" Debian archive for testing and unstable at http://packages.debian.org/nted.

For other debian derivated distributions like Ubuntu the NtEd package may be rebuilt from sources if the binary packages don't install correctly:

  1. add an appropriate deb-src entry to your sources.list file (see above)
  2. apt-get update && apt-get source nted
  3. cd nted-x.y.z
  4. dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc -us -rfakeroot
  5. The binary NtEd packages (nted and nted-doc) for your distribution are then present in the upper directory (..) and may be installed using dpkg -i
