Installing Bluefish on Debian GNU/Linux

Installing 2.0

Use

sudo apt-get install bluefish
sudo aptitude install bluefish

or any other frontend for the package manager such as synaptic or simply "add / remove programs".

The version in Debian Sid is always the latest available, see http://packages.debian.org/sid/bluefish . Debian Lenny and Debian Squeeze users may use the procedures below to get the most recent bluefish version.

Installing 2.2 release candidates on Debian Sid and Wheezy

This entry is only for Debian Sid/Wheezy users, who want to test the release candidates too. Official bluefish releases are provided via the Debian archive.

Add the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list

deb     http://debian.wgdd.de/debian sid main contrib non-free

or put a snippet into /etc/apt/sources.list.d/

sudo wget http://debian.wgdd.de/stuff/debian.wgdd.de_sid.list -N -P /etc/apt/sources.list.d

Run updates, to pick up the newly available options

sudo apt-get update

You may see errors at this point, because you've not yet installed the cryptographic key, but that's OK as you're about to do that

Then install the repository cryptographic key and Bluefish:

sudo apt-get install wgdd-archive-keyring
sudo apt-get install bluefish

Installing 2.2 on Debian 6.0 (Squeeze)

Add the following line to /etc/apt/sources.list

deb     http://debian.wgdd.de/debian squeeze main contrib non-free

or put a snippet into /etc/apt/sources.list.d/

sudo wget http://debian.wgdd.de/stuff/debian.wgdd.de_squeeze.list -N -P /etc/apt/sources.list.d

Run updates, to pick up the newly available options

sudo apt-get update

You may see errors at this point, because you've not yet installed the cryptographic key, but that's OK as you're about to do that

Then install the repository cryptographic key and Bluefish:

sudo apt-get install wgdd-archive-keyring
sudo apt-get install bluefish

Installing Bluefish on Ubuntu Linux

Installing 2.0 on Ubuntu

sudo apt-get install bluefish

or any other frontend for the package manager such as aptitude, synaptic or simply "add / remove programs"

Note, that you only need to use the procedures below, if recent bluefish packages are not provided by the Ubuntu archives. This may be the case for released Ubuntu versions after some time. In this case pick up the instructions for your Ubuntu version from below.

Installing 2.2 on Ubuntu 10.04 or newer

add the following line that fits your Ubuntu version to /etc/apt/sources.list

deb     http://debian.wgdd.de/ubuntu lucid    main restricted universe multiverse
deb     http://debian.wgdd.de/ubuntu maverick main restricted universe multiverse

Run updates, to pick up the newly available options

sudo apt-get update

You may see errors at this point, because you've not yet installed the cryptographic key, but that's OK as you're about to do that

Then install the repository cryptographic key and Bluefish:

sudo apt-get install wgdd-archive-keyring
sudo apt-get install bluefish

Installing Bluefish on Fedora Linux

Installing 2.0.3

yum install bluefish

Installing 2.2.0

Installing Bluefish on Mandriva Linux

To install bluefish on Mandriva, download the latest rpm from http://www.bennewitz.com/bluefish/stable/binaries/mandriva/ Then run the rpm by double-clicking on it. It's that easy. The version for Mandriva 2010.0 x86_64 (i.e. 64 bits) works for Mandriva 2009 Spring x86_64 too.

Or if you are not interested in keeping the download file, you can just click on the above link, click on the latest version, and when the pop-up asks you if you want to download or install, you can just click install.

Installing Bluefish on AltLinux

Installing 2.0

Bluefish 2.0 currently is not in Alt Linux repos, but will soon appear in Sisyphus.
For the moment, to install it you have to:

wget http://alt.u-nix.eu.org/bluefish/bluefish-2.0.0rc3-alt1.i586.rpm
wget http://alt.u-nix.eu.org/bluefish/bluefish-common-2.0.0rc3-alt1.noarch.rpm
rpm -i bluefish-common-2.0.0rc3-alt1.noarch.rpm bluefish-2.0.0rc3-alt1.i586.rpm

If you want to build it on your system, just do:

wget http://alt.u-nix.eu.org/bluefish/bluefish-2.0.0rc3-alt1.src.rpm
rpm -i bluefish-2.0.0rc3-alt1.src.rpm
cd /usr/src/RPM/SPECS
rpmbuild -bb bluefish-2.0.0rc3.spec
cd /usr/src/RPM/RPMS/noarch
rpm -i bluefish-common-2.0.0rc3-alt1.noarch.rpm

For i586 do:

cd /usr/src/RPM/RPMS/i586
rpm -i bluefish-2.0.0rc3-alt1.i586.rpm

For x86_64 do:

cd x86_64
rpm -i bluefish-2.0.0rc3-alt1.x86_64.rpm

Installing Bluefish on Gentoo

Latest Gentoo stable

emerge bluefish

Latest available

echo 'app-editors/bluefish' >> /etc/portage/package.keywords && emerge bluefish

Installing Bluefish on Slackware

Kwick n dirty method
$ ./configure && make
# make install
enjoy you are in Slackware ;)
But please consider to use a Slackbuild
(you know why)
Dependencies

Bluefish compiles fine in slack 3.1 or slack elite, without gvfs. wget is your friend.

Installing 2.0.3 (current stable)

Bluefish needs gvfs if you want to work with remote files.

GVFS is work in progress. In Slackware, you need to have glib 2.18 (Slack 13.0); GSB (2.28.2) uses glib2 2.22.4 and gvfs 1.4.3.

Slack 13.37 have glib2-2.28. SBo provide a SlackBuild for gvfs-1.6.7

Installing Bluefish on OpenSolaris

A binary package is not yet available in OpenSolaris, you have to compile from source, see Compiling_Bluefish_from_source.

Installing Bluefish on Mac OS X

Installing 2.2.0 Native (no X11 needed!)

Download Bluefish-2.2.0.dmg from http://www.bennewitz.com/bluefish/stable/binaries/macosx/, open it and drag the bluefish icon onto Applications.

Version 2.2.0 should work on OSX 10.5 and 10.6 and OSX Lion 10.7

Installing 2.0 Using Macports

Install Macports.

Run from Terminal.app

sudo port install bluefish

see https://trac.macports.org/browser/trunk/dports/editors/bluefish/Portfile

Installing 2.2 Using Fink

http://pdb.finkproject.org/pdb/package.php/bluefish


Installing Bluefish on Windows XP/Vista/7 (32 bit)

Installing 2.2.0

download Bluefish-2.2.0-setup.exe from the main download server http://www.bennewitz.com/bluefish/stable/binaries/win32/

This installer needs internet access because it will download gtk library and the spell checking dictionaries for you.

Installing without internet access

download Bluefish-2.2.0-setup.exe from the main download server http://www.bennewitz.com/bluefish/stable/binaries/win32/

Now download the GTK+ installer (gtk-runtime-2.14.7-rev-a.exe from http://sourceforge.net/projects/pidgin/files/GTK%2B%20for%20Windows/2.14.7%20Rev%20A/gtk-runtime-2.14.7-rev-a.exe/download) and whatever language dictionaries (from http://www.muleslow.net/files/aspell/lang/) you wish to install and place them in a directory called 'redist' in the same folder as the installer. The install will fall back on downloading the file if it does not exist locally or the checksum of the local file does not match the stored value.

Installing Bluefish on Windows 7 (64 bit)

Bluefish 2.2.0 on Windows 7 (64 bit) will fail to start with the newest version of GTK+. You have to manually download GTK 2.14.7 from http://sourceforge.net/projects/gtk-win/files/GTK%2B%20Runtime%20Environment/GTK%2B%202.14/gtk2-runtime-2.14.7-2009-01-13-ash.exe/download and install it prior installing Bluefish itself. This will prevent Bluefish installer from donwloading the newest version.

If you already have GTK+ in newer version, you have to uninstall this one, and install version 2.14.7. Otherwise you won't be able to run Bluefish.

Than download Bluefish-2.2.0-setup.exe from the main download server http://www.bennewitz.com/bluefish/stable/binaries/win32/ and install it.

Bluefish won't run with any newer version of GTK+ than 2.14.7, so do not upgrade this library. If it happens, you'll have to manually downgrade to mentioned version.
