Installing

  • If your distribution supports snap packages: sudo snap install ymuse
  • Ubuntu (as of 23.04) or Debian Testing: sudo apt install ymuse
  • A flatpak is available in the Flathub repository.
  • Otherwise, you can use a binary package from the Releases section.

Building from source

Requirements

  • Go 1.22+
  • GTK 3.24+

Getting started

  1. Install Go
  2. Make sure you have the following build dependencies installed:
    • build-essential
    • libc6
    • libgtk-3-dev
    • libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev
    • libglib2.0-dev
    • gettext
  3. Clone the source and compile:
git clone https://github.com/yktoo/ymuse.git
cd ymuse
go generate
go build
  1. Copy over the icons and localisations:
sudo cp -r resources/icons/* /usr/share/icons/
sudo cp -r resources/i18n/generated/* /usr/share/locale/
sudo update-icon-caches /usr/share/icons/hicolor/*

This will create the application executable ymuse in the project root directory, which you can run straight away.

Packaging

DEB and RPM

Requires goreleaser installed.

goreleaser release --clean --skip=publish [--snapshot]

Flatpak

  1. Install flatpak and flatpack-builder
  2. flatpak remote-add flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
