 +To install our slackbuilds we have an application to help the process.
  
-There are a few ways of installing studioware applications. We have both pre-built packages and slackbuild scripts that create packages from source.+To make the process a little simpler we have an application to download, build and install packages: sepkg. It supports queue files, and will even download the queues from our server if needed.
  
-To make the process a little simpler we have two applications to download and install them: studiopkg for packages, and sepkg for building from slackbuilds. They both support queue files, and will even download the queues from our server if needed.+You will need around 12GB of free space to build all the packages in a full install. 
 +===== 1) Preinstallation Tasks =====
  
-===== 1) Preparing Studiopkg and Sepkg =====+  * Install JDK or OpenJDK. AlienBob has packages here: http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/openjdk/ This is for portmidi. You may need to log out and in again after installing jdk. 
 +  * Create Avahi user and group (for 14.2 onward): 
 +groupadd -g 214 avahi\\ 
 +useradd -u 214 -g 214 -c "Avahi" -d /dev/null -s /bin/false avahi\\ 
 +Install fltk (for audio/yoshimi) from extra.\\

-Edit /etc/studiopkg/studiopkg.conf and change SWVERSION to reflect your Slackware version - eg: +
- +
-SWVERSION=14.1 +
- +
-The ARCH is worked out automatically. +
- +
-You can also set CHECKGPG=ON or OFF for your needs. We recommend ON.+

 We have three main categories of applications: audio, video and photo. They are maintained by queue files. There is also a 'full' queue. We have three main categories of applications: audio, video and photo. They are maintained by queue files. There is also a 'full' queue.

- +
-studiopkg -q audio\\ +

-sepkg -q audio\\+
  
-When using studiopkg it will check the package md5 and gpg. If these are wrong you may need to retry the download and/or delete the cache using the delete-cache option. It will prompt for retry download. If it keeps throwing up an error then please contact us with the details.+<code>sepkg -q audio</code>
  
-<note important>Either jdk or openjdk is a buildtime requirement when using sepkg to build the audio or full queue. jdk can be found in the extra/ directory on any of the slackware mirrors, or alienBob has packages for openjdk here: http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slackbuilds/openjdk/</note>
