Mbt is distributed under the GNU Public Licence v3 (see the file COPYING)

This software has been tested on:

• Intel platform running several versions of Linux, including Ubuntu, Debian, Arch Linux, Fedora (both 32 and 64 bits)
• Apple platform running Mac OS X 10.10

Compilers:

• GCC. It is highly recommended to upgrade to at least GCC 4.8
• Clang

Contents of this distribution:

• sources
• Licensing information ( COPYING )
• Installation instructions ( INSTALL )
• Build system based on GNU Autotools
• example data files ( in the demos/ directory )
• documentation ( in the docs/ directory )

Dependencies: To be able to succesfully build Timbl from the tarball, you need the following pakages:

• pkg-config
• timbl
• ticcutils

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.
