## Installation
### Compiling sources
The only runtime dependency is qtbase ≥ 5.4.
In order to build CMake ≥ 3.0 is needed as well as optionally Git to pull latest VCS checkouts.
Code configuration is handled by CMake. Building out of source is strongly recommended. CMake variable `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX` will normally have to be set to `/usr`, depending on the way library paths are dealt with on 64bit systems variables like `CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR` may have to be set as well.
To build run `make`, to install `make install` which accepts variable `DESTDIR` as usual.
### Binary packages
The library is provided by all major Linux distributions like Arch Linux, Debian, Fedora and openSUSE.
Just use the distributions' package managers to search for string `qtermwidget`.
