Client Compile

FileZilla 3 has the following dependencies:

• libfilezilla
• wxWidgets
• GnuTLS
• libidn (under Unix-like systems)
• gettext (Compiletime only)
• libdbus (under Unix-like systems)

If you've checked out FileZilla from the SVN repository as opposed to using an official release, you also need the following dependencies:

• Perl
• Libtool
• autoconf
• automake

Execute autoreconf -i after installing these additional dependencies.

If all dependencies are installed, compiling FileZilla is as simple as calling

• ./configure
• make
• make install

If anything is missing, the configure script will tell you about it.

For more exotic systems, more detailed instructions are provided:

1. Compiling FileZilla 3 under Windows
2. Compiling FileZilla 3 under Mac OS X
3. Cross Compiling FileZilla 3 for Windows under Debian GNU/Linux

On Debian and derivatives like Ubuntu, you can install dependencies with the command shown below.

sudo apt-get install libfilezilla-dev libwxbase3.0-dev gnutls-dev libdbus-1-dev

On Red Hat and derivatives like Fedora, you can install dependencies with the command shown below.

sudo dnf install libfilezilla-devel wxBase3-devel gnutls-devel

If you can't find a package on Red Hat and derivatives, then use denf find a package name. For example, dnf search filezilla | grep dev will reveal the package libfilezilla-devel.
