 This file describes how to build and install Marble
 
 The most recent version of this file can be found at:
 
 https://marble.kde.org/sources.php
 
 Please refer to the online version above if possible.
 
 NOTE: This file describes how to build Marble as a stand-alone
       application.  If you are building Marble as part of the KDE-EDU
       module, then you should instead read the file INSTALL in the top
       level directory of this module and ignore this one.  This is
       most likely ../INSTALL.
 
 
 Prerequisites for building Marble are:
  - Qt 5.3 or newer
  - Cmake version 2.8.12 or newer
  - (optional): KDE Frameworks 5.7 or newer (KF5) from the KDE repositories.
  - other dependencies are optional
 
 A checkout of Marble. You can check out Marble using GIT via the command:
 
 git clone git://anongit.kde.org/marble ~/marble/sources
 
 
 You can build and install Marble in two different ways:
 
 1. As a Qt-only application.
 2. As a KF5-based application, using KDE Frameworks 5 classes.
 
 Choose one of them and read below for how to do it.
 
 NOTE: If you wish to build Marble with debug info include the argument
       -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debug in the cmake command below.
 
 1. Build Marble as a Qt only application.
 
 1.1 Create a build directory
 
 Create a build directory parallel to the source directory.  Suppose
 that the source directory is named 'marble'. Then create a new
 directory called 'marble-build'.
 
 
 1.2 Configure the build tree
 
 Go into the build directory and type
 
   cmake -DWITH_KF5=FALSE ../marble
 
 By default, marble is installed into /usr/local.  If you want to
 install it into any other directory, add
 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/path/to/install/into like in this example:
 
   cmake -DWITH_KF5=FALSE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/apps ../marble
 
 If you have no write permission to the installation directory of cmake
 (because you have a system installed cmake) you need to add another
 parameter -DPACKAGE_ROOT_PREFIX=~/apps to the cmake command:
 
   cmake -DWITH_KF5=FALSE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/apps \
         -DPACKAGE_ROOT_PREFIX=~/apps ../marble
 
 To modify the position of the data directory at compile time, see the notes
 at 3.1 .
 
 
 1.3 Build marble
 
 Also in the build directory, type:
 
   make
 
 
 1.4 Install marble
 
 Finally, also from the build directory, type:
 
   make install
 
 and start Marble either from the menu or via the command line:
 
   marble-qt
 
 
 2. Build Marble as a KF5-based application.
 
 2.1 Create a build directory
 
 This is the same step as for a Qt-only build:
 
 Create a build directory parallel to the source directory.  Suppose
 that the source directory is named 'marble'. Then create a new
 directory called 'marble-build'.
 
 2.2 Configure the build tree
 
 Go into the build directory and type
 
   cmake ../marble
 
 From now on the steps are the same as for a Qt-only build.
 
 2.3 Build marble
 
   make
 
 2.4 Install marble
 
   make install
 
 and start Marble either from the menu or via the command line:
 
   marble
 
 
 3 Adjust Marble's search path for the maps and data
 
 There are several ways to adjust the path where Marble is
 drawing it's data from:
 
 3.1 At Compiletime
 
 Use the cmake option -DMARBLE_DATA_PATH to specify the
 built-in system path that Marble gathers its data from:
 
 Example:
   cmake -DWITH_KF5=FALSE -DMARBLE_DATA_PATH /mnt1/marble/data ~/marble
 
 3.2 "At Runtime"
 
 There are two solutions to adjust the data path for a
 precompiled Marble binary:
 
 a) Enter a key and a value
 
 marbleDataPath="/smb/marble/data"
 
 to the config file "marblerc" or
 "~/.config/KDE/Marble\ Desktop\ Globe.conf" and (re)start the
 application.
 
 b) Start Marble using the command line option --marbleDataPath:
 
 marble --marbleDataPath ~/marble/data
