Install as Part of KDE

Umbrello is part of KDE which means it comes with all GNU/Linux distributions. You will be able to install it using your normal package manager (yum, up2date, yast, apt-get, emerge etc). It may be part of a package called "kdesdk" or may be in its own package "umbrello" or "umbrello-kde4".

RPM Package

To install from an RPM package, as root enter the following command using the appropriate .rpm file name.

% rpm -Uvh umbrello-1.3.0-0-suse90.i586.rpm

Debian and Kubuntu Package

You can install Umbrello from Debian, Kubuntu and Ubuntu's standard archives.

apt-get install umbrello-kde4

Gentoo Packages

Umbrello can be installed with:

$ emerge umbrello

See Gentoo kdesdk package for the current version.

FreeBSD

Umbrello is available from FreeBSD ports.

Source Code

To install from source you will need the development files for KDE 4 and Qt 4, these will be part of a package called kdelibs5-dev and libqt4-dev or similar.

The program has no specific GNU/Linux code, so should compile on any system with KDE.

Here are the packages required for building Umbrello 2:

To install from source out of SVN, enter the following commands.

% svnroot=svn://anonsvn.kde.org:/home/kde/trunk/KDE/

% svn co -N $svnroot/kdesdk

% cd kdesdk

% svn co $svnroot/kdesdk/scripts

% svn co $svnroot/kdesdk/umbrello

% svn co -N $svnroot/kdesdk/doc

% svn co $svnroot/kdesdk/doc/umbrello doc/umbrello

Replace -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/lib/kde4 with the appropriate directory for your distribution (e.g. SuSE and Debian use /usr):

% mkdir build; cd build; cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/lib/kde4 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=debugfull ..

If you checked the sources out of KDE's SVN you probably only want to compile Umbrello and not the whole of kdesdk so change into the Umbrello directory.

% cd umbrello

% make

Then as root enter:

% make install

Running the Program

After you have installed the program, you can run the program from the menu option Development -> Umbrello.
