Actually it's pretty simple. There are a lot of instructions on that page because there are quite a few ways of installing/building emc. In a nutshell: Start a terminal window and enter the following: cd Documents mkdir emc cd emc sudo apt-get install cvs export CVS_RSH=ssh cvs -z5 -d:ext:[email protected]:/cvs co -demc2-trunk emc2 cd emc/src ./configure --enable-run-in-place make sudo make setuid cd .. . scripts/emc-environment (note the space after the dot - it's important) emc
You can copy and paste the more complicated lines. Paste in terminal is <shift><insert>. Theoretically you should be able to copy the whole lot and paste it in one go but I have never tried it. Obviously you would have to remove my comment :-) to run the cvs version of emc in the future you need to open a terminal and enter the following: cd Documents/emc . scripts/emc-environment emc Not as easy as clicking on an icon but not too bad. This won't affect your main emc installation so you can have both versions on the machine at the same time.
