===== Download =====

People who want to install X2go from source resp. package X2go for other distributions may be interested in our tarball releases. Please visit this URL to obtain tarballs (''.tar.gz''):

<code>

</code>

or obtain code directly from out [[wiki:development:git|Git repository]]:

<code>

</code>

===== Installation from Tarball =====

To install an X2go project from a provided tarball release, please use the following commands:

<code>
$ tar -vzcf <x2go-tarball_version.tar.gz> .
$ cd <x2go-tarball_version>
$ make && sudo make install
</code>

By default the $PREFIX for installation is /usr/local, so basically your (e.g.) x2goclient application will be found in /usr/local/bin if the above command series finishes successfully.

NOTE: many code projects have an INSTALL file in their base project folder that contains extra instructions for the installation process.

===== Uninstallation =====

<code>
$ cd </path/to>/<x2go-tarball_version>
$ sudo make uninstall
</code>

AGAIN NOTE: many code projects have an UNINSTALL file in their base project folder that contains extra instructions for the uninstallation process.
