Official Ubuntu packages Edit

Freeciv packages are provided by Ubuntu. List them with, e.g.,

 aptitude search freeciv

As of Ubuntu Karmic (9.10) the freeciv and freeciv-client packages are virtual: choose either freeciv-client-gtk or freeciv-client-sdl. Client packages install the server, et al, but do not install sound. The virtual sound package, freeciv-sound, currently installs the only available physical sound package, freeciv-sound-standard.

Installation examples Edit

To install the GTK client and sound, do (e.g.)

sudo aptitude install freeciv-client-gtk freeciv-sound
