XMMS now has a CVS server from where you can download the latest
development version. It's rather easy to use.


The following are needed to compile XMMS from CVS.

Gtk+ 1.2.2 or greater:
	ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v1.2/

automake 1.4-p1 or greater:
	ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/automake/

autoconf 2.13 or greater:
	ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/autoconf/

gettext 0.10.35 or greater:
	ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/gettext/

CVS, first of all if your system lacks CVS, download it from

	 Cyclic Software. http://www.cyclic.com

Once you've made sure that CVS is on your system you have to set
an enviroment variable:

	for bash:
	export CVSROOT=":pserver:anonymous@cvs.xmms.org:/cvs"

	for csh:
	setenv CVSROOT ":pserver:anonymous@cvs.xmms.org:/cvs"

When you have set the variable use cvs login to login to the CVS server.
(Just hit enter when it asks for the password) Cd to the dir where you want
the XMMS source to be downloaded to, then run:

	cvs -z3 checkout xmms

Please use the -z3 option to minimize network bandwidth (-z9 eats too much
CPU time - please don't use it).

Once the checkout is completed, cd xmms/ and then run ./autogen.sh to create
the configure script. Once autogen is completed run make and make install
to compile and install XMMS.

If you want to update your source tree with the latest changes simply run
cvs -z3 update -Pd xmms and do as described above.

Get the tar ball or rpm's of the CVS at the FalseHope ftp site
(ftp://ftp.falsehope.com/pub/xmms).

Thanks for using XMMS.
