Let us assume you are starting from a fresh system. Your first task should be to ensure you have some form of GUI | |
installed as you will need one to _run_ 86Box. In this case I suggest KDE as, on FreeBSD 14.3, it pulls in the Qt6 libraries, but you'll still need to run: | |
``` | |
sudo pkg install `pkg search qt5 | egrep ^qt5 | cut -d' ' -f1` | |
``` | |
This will pull in all of Qt5, which is currently needed for the build. | |
Next is to setup the dev environment -- you'll need `git` for pulling down the repo and `cmake` for configuring things, at a minimum: | |
`sudo pkg install cmake git` | |
Then you need to install the dependencies: | |
`sudo pkg install --quiet --yes sndfile rtmidi libslirp freetype2 devel/evdev-proto openal-soft fluidsynth SDL2` | |
