== Installation by Operating System and Distribution: ==
=== Debian GNU/Linux and Ubuntu Linux===
* Please download the [[#Latest_Release|latest .deb package]] from the download section above, and install it as you would install any ordinary Debian package:
** In root (or sudo), install it with <pre>dpkg -i glob2_VERSION.deb</pre>

* You can now run Globulation 2 by typing <pre>glob2</pre>
* You can also use the integrate glob2 package using <pre>apt-get install glob2</pre> but most likely it is not up to date so you will not be able to play on YOG or against others using the latest version not to mention all the flaws you will experience that are gone in our latest version.

=== Source Distribution ===
* Get the [[#downloadlink_source|source distribution archive]] from the download section above.
* Extract the archive using a compression/extraction utility such as tar.
* Go in the extracted archive. If you have a Unix system (Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X):
** Run the 'scons' script to compile the game (it will check dependencies, install any you have missing)
*** If you want to install the game in a special place, instead of 'scons', type:
scons BINDIR="/path/to/install/bin" INSTALLDIR="/path/to/install/share"
** Install with a simple 'scons install' command (will install to the location you might have entered when compiling (BINDIR and INSTALLDIR)).
** Run the game by typing 'glob2'. If it doesn't work, type '/path/to/install/bin/glob2' instead.
** Note: in some Linux distributions (eg: Archlinux), scons complains about not finding -lboost_thread (with boost already installed). A solution is to modify the SConstruct file to look for boost_thread-mt instead of boost_thread, and the modify the LIBS variable with boost_thread-mt, to link against this library. If you have root access you can create a symlink libboost_thread.so instead.
