Building

These are the general steps to building Tauon:

1. Clone Tauon repo git clone https://github.com/Taiko2k/TauonMusicBox.git then cd TauonMusicBox.

2. Init submodules using git submodule update --init --recursive.

3. Install python dependencies. You can use pip install --user -r requirements.txt. (or install in a python venv)

4. Install system dependencies. Package names might differ between distros. They are:

   • pygobject
   • ffmpeg
   • libnotify
   • sdl2
   • sdl2-image
   • libwavpak
   • flac
   • libvorbis
   • libopusfile
   • libopenmpt
   • libsamplerate
   • libappindicator
   • libmpg123
   • librsvg
   • noto-fonts (optional)
