% Tested on FreeBSD 14.0-RELEASE (with X11 + GNOME installed), OpenBSD 7.4 (with X11) and NetBSD 9.3 (with X11)

1. Prerequisites for building zint
==================================

Prerequisites are git, cmake, make, gcc (or clang) and, for PNG support, libpng, e.g. FreeBSD

    su
    pkg install git cmake gmake gcc graphics/png
    exit

or OpenBSD (make and clang should already be installed):

    su
    pkg_add git cmake png
    exit

or NetBSD (make and gcc should already be installed):

    su
    pkgin install git cmake png
    exit

Then clone the latest source

    git clone https://git.code.sf.net/p/zint/code zint
    cd zint


2. Prerequisites for building zint-qt
=====================================

On FreeBSD:

    su
    pkg install qt5-core qt5-uitools qt5-buildtools qt5-qmake qt5-svg
    exit

On OpenBSD:

    su
    pkg_add qtbase qttools qtsvg
    exit

On NetBSD:

    su
    pkgin install qt5-qtbase qt5-qttools qt5-qtsvg
    exit


3. Build
========

The rest is standard CMake (allowing for absence of sudo)

    mkdir build
    cd build
    cmake ..
    make
    su
    make install
    exit

except that on OpenBSD you need to use

    cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/local/lib/qt5/cmake ..

and on NetBSD

    cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/usr/pkg/qt5 ..

instead.


3. CMake options
================

See "README.linux". Note for running the test suite on FreeBSD, if using the default csh, to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH use:

   setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${PWD}/backend

Also, for Qt5 test on FreeBSD, need:

   su
   pkg install qt5-testlib
   exit
