Before checking out and building GIMIAS, make sure that you have installed the following tools:

Tools that are available as packages of all major linux distributions (that is in most cases the easiest way to install them):

• An SVN client (e.g. the official command-line client or the graphical client [Smart SVN])
• A C and C++ compiler (we recommend the GNU Compiler Collection (gcc))
• CMake >= 2.8
• Python >= 2.4
• wxPython (corresponding to your Python version)

Tools that don't (yet) have a package in major Linux distributions:

• CSnake >= 2.4.4

• gtk2.0 (i.e. sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-dev ...)
• UUID-dev

• imagemagick
• doxygen
• subversion
• ruby-dev
• 'Remark: There could be a problem with the official driver of NVIDIA: it writes on some OpenGL (Mesa) headers . You have to uninstall it and install it again.
