Note
If root permissions are needed, the script will ask for the permissions. There is no need to call it
with root permissions.
• You might need to enable the execute flag with:
chmod a+x install_mvGenTL_Acquire.sh
• Run the install script:
./install_mvGenTL_Acquire.sh
During installation the script will ask, if it should build all tools and samples.
Note
The installation scripts is developed for Ubuntu/Debian, SUSE Linux and Red Hat Linux based distribu-
tions. On other distributions some features of the installation script may or may not work. Get in touch
with us if you encounter any problems!
The installation script checks for package dependencies described above and installs them with the respective
standard package manager (e.g. apt-get) if necessary. So an Internet connection is recommended.
Note
The installation script (install_mvGenTL_Acquire.sh) and the archive (mvGenTL_←-
Acquire-x86_64_ABI2-n.n.n.tgz) must reside in the same directory. Nothing is written
to this directory during script execution, so no write access to the directory is needed in order to execute
the script.
You need Internet access in case one or more of the packages on which the GenICam (p. 113) libs depend are
not yet installed on your system. In this case, the script will install these packages, and for that, Internet access is
required.
The script supports various arguments, which allow to customize the installation, the desired functionalities and the
installation process itself. All arguments are optional:
