Installing Bluefish on Debian GNU/Linux

Installing the release that is part of Debian / Ubuntu / Mint / etc.

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".

Installing the very latest release on Debian

Installing the very latest release on Debian 7.0 (Wheezy/Stable)

Recent packages for bluefish are available from the official Debian backports archive and can be installed by following the instructions given here. The entry would look like this:

deb http://YOURMIRROR.debian.org/debian wheezy-backports main

or

deb http://YOURMIRROR.debian.org/debian stable-backports main

Report any bugs with these packages to the Debian bugtracker.

This step makes the following entries to either /etc/apt/sources.list or /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.wgdd.de_wheezy.list (or any other file in this directory) obsolete. You can safely remove any reference to the http://debian.wgdd.de/ repository, that my look like this:

deb     http://debian.wgdd.de/debian wheezy main contrib non-free
deb-src http://debian.wgdd.de/debian wheezy main contrib non-free
deb     http://debian.wgdd.de/debian stable main contrib non-free
deb-src http://debian.wgdd.de/debian stable main contrib non-free

and update your bluefish packages:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Also the wgdd-archive-keyring package then is obsolete together with the repository keyring. If you have the package installed, do:

sudo apt-get autoremove --purge wgdd-archive-keyring

... or if you only had the key:

sudo apt-key del E394D996

Installing the very latest release on Debian 6.0 (Squeeze)

Recent packages for bluefish are available from the official Debian backports archive and can be installed by following the instructions given here. The entry would look like this:

deb http://YOURMIRROR.debian.org/debian-backports squeeze-backports-sloppy main

or

deb http://YOURMIRROR.debian.org/debian-backports oldstable-backports-sloppy main

This version is built with the GTK+ 2 libraries. Report any bugs with these packages to the Debian bugtracker.

This step makes the following entries to either /etc/apt/sources.list or /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.wgdd.de_squeeze.list (or any other file in this directory) obsolete. You can safely remove any reference to the http://debian.wgdd.de/ repository, that my look like this:

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

and update your bluefish packages:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Also the wgdd-archive-keyring package then is obsolete together with the repository keyring. If you have the package installed, do:

sudo apt-get autoremove --purge wgdd-archive-keyring

... or if you only had the key:

sudo apt-key del E394D996

Installing the very latest on Ubuntu Linux

Users of Ubuntu releases, for which bluefish doesn't get any official update by the Ubuntu team in the past had the possibility to use the http://debian.wgdd.de/ubuntu repository. This has become obsolete. You'll now find recent packages of bluefish in this PPA. Follow the instrcutions given there to add this repository. Then bluefish can be updated to its latest release:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

This step makes the following entries to either /etc/apt/sources.list or /etc/apt/sources.list.d/debian.wgdd.de_ubuntu_VERSION_CODENAME.list (or any other file in this directory) obsolete. You can safely remove any reference to the http://debian.wgdd.de/ repository, that my look like this:

deb     http://debian.wgdd.de/ubuntu UBUNTU_VERSION_HERE main restricted universe multiverse 
deb-src http://debian.wgdd.de/ubuntu UBUNTU_VERSION_HERE main restricted universe multiverse 

and update your system:

sudo apt-get update

Also the wgdd-archive-keyring package then is obsolete together with the repository keyring. If you have the package installed, do:

sudo apt-get autoremove --purge wgdd-archive-keyring

... or if you only had the key:

sudo apt-key del E394D996

Installing Bluefish on Fedora Linux

Installing the version distributed by Fedora

yum install bluefish

Installing the very latest on Fedora with yum

To enable a bluefish-release yum repository download the bluefish-release.repo file.
Place this repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d

Then you can install normally with...

yum install bluefish

Packages are currently provided for Fedora 19 and Fedora 20. Packages are provided for both i386 and x86_64.
All packages are built using mock. All packages are signed. You will be prompted to download the GPG key.

Installing development versions on Fedora with yum

While care is taken to keep development versions very stable and usable, development versions may crash, contain data eating bugs and incomplete features.
Please report any bugs you might find in Bluefish bugzilla

If you wish to test the bleeding edge versions of Bluefish currently under development download the bluefish-svn.repo file.
Place this repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d

Then you can install normally with...

yum install bluefish

Packages are currently provided for Fedora 19 and Fedora 20. Packages are provided for both i386 and x86_64.
All packages are built using mock. All packages are signed. You will be prompted to download the GPG key.

Installing Bluefish on RHEL/CentOS 6.5

Installing the very latest on RHEL/CentOS 6.5

Bluefish packages for RHEL/CentOS 6.5 are available at the links below for i386 and x86_64.
These packages require version 6.5. Previous versions prior to 6.5 had GTK+ 2.18.x.
RHEL/CentOS 6.5 has GTK+ 2.20.x which is the minimum version required to build current versions of Bluefish.

All packages are built using mock. All packages are signed with this gpg key.


Required for RHEL/CentOS 6.5..

i386

* bluefish-2.2.6-1.el6.i686.rpm
* bluefish-shared-data-2.2.6-1.el6.noarch.rpm

x86_64

* bluefish-2.2.6-1.el6.x86_64.rpm

* bluefish-debuginfo-2.2.6-1.el6.i686.rpm

x86_64

* bluefish-debuginfo-2.2.6-1.el6.x86_64.rpm

Installing Bluefish on openSUSE

Bluefish is available in the main repository. Launch YaST and search for "bluefish" to find and select the appropriate package to install.

This process is also automated through 1-Click-Install on the openSUSE Build Service: https://software.opensuse.org/package/bluefish

Installing Bluefish on AltLinux

Installing Bluefish on Slackware

Installing Bluefish on Mac OS X

Download http://www.bennewitz.com/bluefish/stable/binaries/macosx/Bluefish-2.2.5-2.dmg from http://www.bennewitz.com/bluefish/stable/binaries/macosx/, open it and drag the bluefish icon onto Applications.

In Mavericks there is a system setting called Gatekeeper that only allows you to install packages from Apple-identified developers. Bluefish is not distributed through the Apple app store, so you will have to disable that setting. For more information see https://kb.wisc.edu/helpdesk/page.php?id=25443 or http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5290

Installing Bluefish on Windows XP or newer

Installing 2.2.5

Download the latest Bluefish installer from the main download server: http://www.bennewitz.com/bluefish/stable/binaries/win32/

The installer will require internet access to download GTK+ and any spell check dictionaries. Please note that the internet-enabled setup may fail if the installer is run from a network share. See below for instructions for internet-less installation.

Installing without Internet Access

Download the latest Bluefish installer from the main download server: http://www.bennewitz.com/bluefish/stable/binaries/win32/

Download the GTK+ 2.24.8 installer (from the gtk-win project): http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gtk-win/gtk2-runtime-2.24.8-2011-12-03-ash.exe?download

Download any language dictionaries you wish to be able to install: http://www.muleslow.net/files/aspell/lang/

Place the files in a new directory named 'redist' in the same directory as the Bluefish installer. e.x.

Bluefish\
Bluefish\Bluefish-2.2.5-setup.exe
Bluefish\redist\gtk2-runtime-2.24.8-2011-12-03-ash.exe
Bluefish\redist\aspell6-en-7.1-0.tbz2

The installer will fall back on downloading the files if they are not found in the redist folder, or if the checksum of the local copy is invalid.
